Butterflies, spiders, and a whole lot more



I took the kids down to the Butterfly Pavilion and they had a great time. We saw many beautiful flowers, butterflies, fish, insects, and Rosey the tarantula. Evan, Courtney and I were the only ones to hold her. I usually would freak out about having a big hairy spider like that touching me, but it wasn't that bad. However, if I saw it in my basement, I would totally scream and run away! (Guess it must have been the environment that made me feel ok about holding her.) We had a fun time walking around and pointing out all the different kinds of butterflies we saw there too. They are so beautiful and I am amazed at the vibrant colors and designs each of them had.
