Our Return to the Gardens

If you've been a regular reader of our blog since the beginning, you probably recall a couple of our previous years' posts from the Annmarie Garden. Well, yesterday we decided to make a return trip. This was the first time, however, that the flowers were in bloom. It was like visiting the garden for the first time as the addition of the flowers really added a beautiful touch. It was fun to walk the trail with Tyler. He really didn't remember coming here before, so to see his reactions to some of the sculptures was interesting. In this photo, Tyler is placing his hand on a hand print made by another Tyler. The garden usually host a series of events or fun activities for kids throughout the year. When we arrived yesterday, we had found out that they were providing free gourd painting to be eventually displayed in the garden. Tyler loves to paint, so there was no way we were going to pass up this fun. Next week, they are hosting a sidewalk chalk drawing event. We'll probably check it out, so stay tuned...
