Frederick Meijer Gardens

What a beautiful Spring day today! It's funny in Michigan how we hit 40 degrees and EVERYONE gets outside! It's been a long winter and the sun is such a welcoming thing to see! Colin and I thought it would be fun to take the kids to Frederick Meijer Gardens today to see the butterflies and play outside in the Children's Garden. It's so beautiful there and we love going there! We asked Colin's mom to come with us and had a great day! We beat the crowds, saw the butterflies then had a chance to play outside. The kids were so cute putting their fingers out hoping for a butterfly to land on it. No such luck...but one did land on Colin's head. Abigail thought that was hilarious. What a fun day!

Ben and I went two years ago and really enjoyed it! I've always wanted to go back during the "peak" time. Nice pictures :)
