Hello, lovely friends!
We went home to Grand Rapids for Easter weekend, we had a wonderful visit!
Some friends invited me along to the Frederik Meijer Gardens & Sculpture Park ~
Waiting in line to see the Butterfly Exhibit
My friends daughter ~ so cute!
Crown of Thorns ~ Such a beautiful plant.
The Caterpillars
The Small Postman
This was my favorite butterfly ~ The Common Morpho
The Tiger Longwing
This one with it's worn wings made us all sad...
My friends having lots of fun!
Banana Plant ~ I think it's pretty cool looking
We then went outside to roam the grounds and enjoy the beautiful spring weather ~
I'm not sure what this statue is called?
My friend's daughter calls it "The Angry Mom" ~ ha-ha, I'm sure she's never seen her mother angry before...Where do children come up with these things?!
This so reminds me of the Secret Garden
The Farm ~
Playing on the farm
I loved the farm house!
I can't wait until my next visit to explore many more areas at the gardens!
