new adventure

this year we got real wild and crazy and decided to put some new adventures on our summer fun list

although we kept many of our favorites from summers past, the arboretum made its way onto the list this year and i'm so glad it did!

we had a blast!


seeing goldy gopher was among the highlights



as well as touching the soft lamb's ear and discovering a plant called "miss ruby" - too bad she was snoozin' or i would have snapped her in the pic, too



we were walking along quite contentedly, looking at the flowers and oooohing and aaahing over the petals....when lo and behold, we came across a waterfall with.......

tadpoles!

hundreds of these little guys and wouldn't you know that peach got right in there and caught more than just a few



tulip counted on me to catch hers for her, but she held them and snuggled them up to her cheek saying, "ooooh, sweetheart!  i yove you!"






the bugs found us at the end and we hightailed it out of there, but not without another stop at goldy and a few minutes to play in this fun house


the arboretum will definitely be on the list again in 2014....

speaking of new adventures, we're headed on another one come thursday - stay tuned!
