Botanic Gardens

We have been up to the Botanic Gardens a lot lately. It has been really nice the last few weeks and a nice outlet for us. Last Monday was the day before Andrew's two day test and they were told to not study that day and he needed to get out of the house and do something fun and enjoyable. We were happy to oblige since we were finally going to get to spend time with him. It turned out to be a great day! It was perfect temperature and not to crowded. All the trees are in bloom and absolutely gorgeous and most of the tulips and daffodils are in bloom.

Ella wanted to smell the flowers. I love how 2 year olds smell it is so cute!

Those red bushes in the back were amazing!

We spent some time in the doghouse! Ella loves the little bench inside of it!

Easton fell asleep on our way there and woke up just in time to play in the sand. They had fun burying their feet, making castles, and unfortunately throwing the sand (and eating it if your Easton!)

We went down the slide about 20 times since we had it to ourselves for a while and once other kids came Ella was done. They ran up and down the ramp to the tree houseEaston is a happy child if he is either eating something or outside playing or doing both at the same time!He gets rather upset if you go outside or anywhere without him! I love the Botanic Gardens because he can just run free!Playing inside the big tree house!They have all these tunnels they call "worms" and they both love to go back and forth through them!

I just love this picture. I need to remind myself to look at it when they are stressing me out, they really do bring us so much joy! We get asked on a daily/hourly basis if they are twins at least now they look more like twins then they ever have! When Eatson was a small baby and Ella was like 18 months I used to get it a lot which never made sense to me one has a mouth full of teeth and the other doesn't and you think they are twins, really?!?Ella loves playing in all the little houses. Their favorite house is the music houseBefore we left we swung on the swings and then they both had a meltdown and so we headed home for naps!
