Trip to the Botanical Gardens

Today was a beautiful day in Chicago, so we decided to take a trip to the Botanical Gardens. Rick and the kids have been there before, but today was my first trip! I can now understand why everyone loved it and got very excited when we said we were going there this morning. The Gardens are huge! I am pretty sure that we did not get to see all of the different gardens today! Amazingly, both AJ and Ashleigh remembered some of the different names of the gardens, even though they had not been there since November. Their memories always amaze me! Here are a few pictures from today!

What a great day! Definitely wish it was this nice more often here! Hope everyone else had a great weekend!

Have a great week everyone!
