"I'm Going To See the Butterflies!"

We took the girls to the conservatory yesterday for the annual Butterfly Show (and all that Bug said all day long was "I'm going to see the butterflies!"), which we have now made a family tradition...Monkey made one of her first public appearances last year at the big event!  After our visit there last year on one of the hottest days that I think we had (and on a weekend), we chose a different route this year...a cool, rainy Friday at lunchtime...perfection.  We didn't have to wait in any lines, I didn't have sweat running down my back (sorry, but helpful for those who may think about going on a hot day!), and we could actually walk around and search through the flowers to look at the butterflies rather than bumping into someone everytime you turned around.  It was a great time and the girls absolutely loved it! 





Bug could have played in the cave all day!


~It landed right on the lady standing next to us~


We finally got one!


Monkey wanted to grab it in the worst way!
