Doug shot some wonderful pictures of us! You could never tell by looking at his pictures that is was ridiculously hot and whenever possible we would back away from each other (it was steaming being so close!) and try to cool down before the next shot! The botanical garden was huge and poor Shayla got very tiered of walking, so Dave and I took turns giving her piggy back rides. Strangely enough, as soon as there was something fun to see/do Shayla miraculously got all her energy back and was ready to be off : )
One of the highlights (especially for the kids) was the fish you could feed. Christen, Paul, Anna and Shayla all tried to make sure the fish were fed and not the geese that were trying to move in on the fish's territory!
This picture does not accurately depict how many fish there really were or how big they were!
They would just swarm when the kids threw the food at them.
There were fun things all around the gardens for the kids to see and play with. As soon something fun came into sight, the kids were off running as fast as they could towards it. They knew we didn't have much time and as soon as the adults caught up, they would have to move on to the next thing, so they tried to get as much play time in as possible!

This is another picture by Doug, it was taken on a little dock. The gardens had so many neat and interesting things all around it, we had such a good time!
