Butterfly in the Sky...

Today we had a family day out butterfly hunting. Since we were at a butterfly garden our hunt was something like fishing at the trout farm. The place was packed with butterflies and though none landed on our brightly colored shirts (a tip from our last visit four years ago) we were able to coax a few off their leaves. Marielle was very excited, but as can be expected for a 2 year old, was done looking at the butterflies after about four minutes. But as parents we prevailed and spent about an hour wandering, admiring, and "catching" butterflies.

Marielle is getting so big. Wow! What a fun family activity. We'll have to give it a try. I hope Brayden wouldn't try to smash them.

I love your new blog page look! The pictures are so good. Keep those stories coming. Everytime I drive into our garage I think of you and all your things.
