Arboretum

Monday, the first day of Thanksgiving break we went to the Arboretum . . with Grandma, Grandpa, Aunt Linda, Uncle Scott, Jeremy and Katie!!!!  It was kind of a weird week at the Arboretum as they were in between Christmas and Fall -- with both types of decor and plants up.  But that was perfect for us since we are celebrating both this week!!!

In front of one of the Twelve Days of Christmas displays -- this is the 1st, a Partridge in a Pear Tree.

And now, pumpkin houses!!

They loved running through the hay maze.

These gourds rattled when you shook them -- nature's maracas!

I love these four!!!

Top of the Owl house.

Nest house.

Hey, look it's grandma!

We headed over to the new Children's Garden which is huge and has so much to do!!!  We were in there for hours and didn't get it all done.

Peas in a pod.  Or as Jeremy called it, a "Pea Boat".

Kaleidoscope! 

You were supposed to make patterns with these shapes -- Dani just entertained herself in the mirror!!

But Grandpa made a turtle!

It was a super fun day!!
