Botanical Garden

My mom and I took the kids to the Bellevue Botanical Garden this morning. When Grace heard it was a park without a playground, she was not interested in going. When I told her I was hoping to take her picture while were there, she hid underneath a pile of toys in her room and declared that she would "not take a picture!!"

I was so surprised at home much the kids both LOVED the gardens. They ran all around discovering things. I don't think we actually made it to where most of the flowers are, but we had a blast walking down the trails finding interesting rocks, trees and streams.

And, of course, you can't go to such a beautiful place and not take a few pictures. I took over 200. I have issues, I know, but it seriously takes me that many to end up with a few that I like. Here are my adorable kiddos playing at the gardens:

My favorite from the day...
