Day 2 of Spring Break~
Today we went to the Arboretum. It was cloudy outside, and I wasn't sure if we would stay dry or not but we went anyway. We picked up some of our friends and were off. We arrived at the Arboretum to be greeted by 8 parking attendants. I wasn't sure if they needed that many, but it was a sea of orange vests and the aroma of fresh flowers.

We began by having our picture taken with a live bunny. It was so cute! The photographer will send the picture in about a week so I'll post it later. Wyatt and Jayda each made a sunflower with birdseed, sun visors, and colored a picture of a tulip. They had a great time playing and running in the grass too. For lunch, we sat in the children's garden. No one else was there so it was as if we had our own private area of the garden with children's music playing in the background. The day turned out to be beautiful. We left just in time to come home and take naps! We had a special day in the gardens!

Here is some of the fun we had today!

Splashing in the pools!


This is one of the "tree houses." There was a water mister coming from the top of the house. It made it look cloudy. Wyatt was trying to touch the water.


By the way, for those of you who are wondering...yes I did win the cookie dough contest with my class. Thanks for ordering. They were quite amazed and we had some good life lessons come from it. The cookie dough will be delivered the end of March, but in the meantime...we are enjoying SPRING BREAK and I am enjoying just being a stay at home mom!
