We have been LOVING the warm weather Houston has had this past week and are taking advantage of getting to get outside. This weekend we took Gavin to the park to let him run around and play. We let him go on every set of playground the park had. This park was right on the water and the wind was blowing, so the air was a little chilly. Gavin did not mind at all. He laughed and giggled the whole time he was there. He went down all the slide.. the straight ones, curvy ones, bumpy ones, all of them. Brooks and I were "not allowed" to go down with him either. He did great on them and was sad to leave.
Yesterday, some of the girls in our small group from church took our kids to Houston's Butterfly Museum. We were the only people there, except for 2 sweet older ladies, so the kids were able to explore and not be in any one's way. They loved it. When we first entered the museum there was a large caterpillar statue that they wanted to climb around. We took advantage of the photo op. Part of the museum was interactive, giving you lots of info about butterflies, insects, and much more. The kids got to press buttons, look at real insects in cages, and then got to walk through an area that had butterflies flying around. We saw a HUGE iguana and a waterfall along with some butterflies. The kids enjoyed the water puddles along the walk path, too. After the museum, we got our lunches and had a little picnic in the park outside. It was a BEAUTIFUL day and we all enjoyed getting to soak up the sun! The kids played, ran around, and ate lots of good food. It was a very fun filled day with great friends.
