All alone at the botanical gardens

The botanical garden has story hour every Wednesday and since there are only a few Wednesdays left before school starts I took the girls today. It was just the three of us and we had a fun time without anyone else tagging along.

We didn't spend much time in the sprinklers, but instead walked around the grounds trying to "rescue Snow White" (a made-up game of Sophia's) and then spent some time in the Enchanted Storybook Forest.

They have seven houses for the kids to play in:
The Three Little Pigs
Little Red Riding Hood
Huck Fin
Alice in Wonderland
The Crooked Man
The Old Lady Who Lived in the Shoe
Old MacDonald

The girls liked exploring every nook and cranny of the houses since there wasn't a whole lot of people there today. At the very end of the day they finally made a friend and had a tea party with her for 1/2 hour in the Alice in Wonderland house.
