Botanic Gardens 4/27/2013

Riley's parents came for a weekend visit!  We decided to spend one morning at Tucson Botanic Gardens.  We had never gone before.  While we were getting everything ready Hazel grabbed a book and took it to Papa.  It was pretty sweet. 

Our favorite part of the gardens was the butterfly house.  We spent a lot of time in there watching butterflies move all around us.  This picture below is a huge moth, bigger than my hand.

Rhylan stood here holding very still forever.  She was hoping that if she didn't move, a butterfly would land on her. 

The kids were raking in the Zen Garden.

The cactus garden was unique, with some interesting plants and lots of lizards.

We ended up in the shade, in the children's garden.  We found a sand box and let the kids play a while.
