A Beautiful Day for a Stroll in the Gardens

Yesterday my friend Lynn and I took the boys to the Botanical Gardens. The weather was wonderful - not too hot, not too cold, sunny, and a slight breeze. I had such a good time catching up with Lynn and she was great at helping me wrangle both kids and my big ol stroller! The flowers were amazing and X really enjoyed running down the paths.





How beautiful are these tulips!

Can you spot Waldo?

Wes was NOT interested in this picture taking stuff!



X loved looking at the fish. I thought he was going to go head first into the water!

X and Lynn were like peas and carrots hanging out all morning!
Wes hung in the stroller for awhile and then took a short snooze. But he preferred to be held most of the morning. Guess he wanted a better view of the flowers.


How serene is this!
In the children's garden X had a blast making music, grocery shopping, and playing on one of his favorite things....slides!



Wes couldn't resist dipping his toes in the babbling brook.
It was a fabulous day. And the best part of it all is that the kids were so worn out they were both in bed by 7pm that night!

Noelle and I were there yesterday, too!! I can't believe we didn't see you guys - but it was SO crowded. We try to go as often as possible on Wednesday/Saturday mornings and would love to meet you there sometime!

Great pics, by the way! :)
