Today I took the girls to Meadowlark Botanical Gardens to see the butterflies. One of Nina's favorite books these days is Fancy Nancy's Bonjour, Butterfly. In the book, Nancy goes with her family and grandparents to a butterfly garden, so Nina has been asking me to take her to one also. I wasn't really sure if and where there were butterfly gardens around here, but I knew of the Meadowlark Botanical Gardens and just figured that where there were many varieties of flowers, there would be butterflies. The gamble worked perfectly because when we got there, I discovered that they had an actual butterfly garden there. It was a very hot day, so we only stayed for a couple hours. It would be great to go back on a day and just leisurely walk around and take photos. The garden area is really beautiful. But, for today, butterflies were the business, so here are some of the pictures from our day.
Today is a big day for Nina. This evening is her date night with Mark, and they're going to Volcano Island Waterpark in Sterling, so I think we'll have one exhausted little girl tonight!
