botanic garden

Yesterday was free admission at the botanic garden so I took the kids there for their first time. We had a great time looking at the different flowers and hiking around the perimeter. The kids were awesome at spotting wildlife; we saw a bunny, dragonfly and hummingbird. Things are a super fast and gone in an instant. Luckily, the bunny was probably used to people and stayed on the path for a long time while the kids approached slowly.

We had fun reading the placards naming the plants and flowers and overall, we had a nice time with some walking thrown in for good measure.

These budding flowers reminded me of eyeballs.
