Dallas Arboretum

We were sitting around the house this morning, playing with Ashley when Eric read in the paper that it was opening weekend for the Dallas Arboretum. Since it was such a beautiful day we packed up Ashley and headed out to look at the flowers. We had a lot of fun...it felt sort of like a mini vacation...the weather couldn't have been nicer. Ashley had a lot of fun looking at the flowers and all the people. They have this really neat area where they have planted flowers in the shape of butterfly wings...kids (or adults) can lay down in between the flowers and it looks like you are a butterfly. Ashley was too small for the effect to really work..and she was very distracted by the flowers being so close to her...she kept trying to rip them out...WHOOPS! She really liked touching the grass too :) We had a great day!
