Botanic Garden











Our pool is still not open and it is hot outside. To beat the heat, we invited Deb and the boys to join us at the Botanic Garden for some cool splashing fun. They've added a sandbox so it was a total bonus for the girls to be able to build in the sand. Harper loved playing in the dirt, splashing in the fountains, splashing in her watering can and playing in the sand.
Lucy loved the sandbox the most. She took a lot of pride in building mountains and then watching as rivers formed when she poured water over them with the watering can. She also loved running her hands through the lettuce patches they had planted and running around in the outer gardens with Ronin. You can add going up and down stairs to Harper's favorite pastimes at the garden as well. Lucy can't wait to have a house where we can plant a small garden, a tree and flowers (her priorities, not mine!) Going to the childrens' garden gives her a taste of that fun.
