We had an extremely warm day Thursday and we were itching to get out and enjoy it!! Since Daddy was out of town for the day taking CE courses, and it was just the two of us, we decided to go to the Frederik Meijer gardens and the butterfly house! We had such an awesome time, I can't wait to go back! The butterflies were super hyper (do butterflies get hyper?) because of the warmer than usual day and they were flying everywhere! At least a dozen nearly crashed into us in the isles and there were hundreds more among the plants and flowers! Last time we went it was cool and late in the day, so most of them were perched and resting. A definite must see if you are ever in Grand Rapids, MI! Unfortunately most of my butterfly pics were pretty blurry, but the Christopher ones turned out!
Looking around at all the butterflies
We had a blast playing in the children's garden too! The flowers were already beautiful and there were so many things for him to touch and play with. Christopher had a ball splashing in the "Great Lakes". I think we definitely have a water baby on our hands!
