Frederik Meijer Gardens

We were very honored to be able to share in Maya's birthday adventure. We left early Saturday morning and headed to the Meijer Gardens and then after a Panera lunch we headed to the zoo. It was an absolutely wonderful day spent with friends. Thank you Corbins for letting us share in your celebration.

When we got to the gardens there was a long line. We quickly found out that this line was for tickets to their concert series with Lyle Lovett, not for the Gardens themselves. Once we got inside and were in front of the long line James said "We would like four tickets for the concert please"....He thought he was soooooo funny just laughing at himself as he could hardly get the line out. People gasped and then laughed realizing he was joking.

The girls would sit and pose in multiple places asking me to take their picture.



The butterfly exhibit was beautiful. I have talked to Addy about this many times but we never made it to actually see. I am so glad she was able to enjoy this.

She wore her special butterfly shirt just for the occasion.

There was a little door just for the kids to enter into the flower gardens



The girls were able to race their boats in the water.

We chose not to get Andrew out knowing that he would get soaked. He didn't throw too much of a fit.

There was a fun little sand park...perfect for digging. We did decide to let Andrew have some fun here.





Andrew is in his glory here. I have been noticing that Andrew does most things with his left hand now. When I was uploading this video of him digging I noticed once again the left hand. Daddy is pretty proud.

Snack time. Maya wanted a shot with Andrew so of course Adeline also wanted a shot. Look how proud she is.

Sweet Adeline

Off to lunch and then to the zoo. The day has already been so fulfilling.
