Slice of Heaven

This past Monday before leaving for Spring Break at my parents' house, we went to the Dallas Arboretum to see all the beautiful tulips. They were breathtaking. I was pleased with my pictures, but they still don't do them justice.

They also had different "Storybook Playhouses" for the children to play in. Each one was sponsored by a company and was fashioned after a different storybook.

This one was for "Eragon" and was my personal favorite!

This was the Jolly Roger pirate ship for "Peter Pan" and you guessed it, Max's favorite.


This one was a Russian storybook and unfortunately, I forgot the name. Cate really liked this one.

Then, we went over to a petting area for the kids. Max and Cate both went in, but only Max would brush or pet the animals. He spent about 15 minutes in there.

It was a beautiful day after a week of rain. The sunshine, gentle breezes and gorgeous flowers made for a day full of fun for the kids.

Happy Spring!
