Butterflies

We found a really great link about cheap/free things to do in the Worcester area (who knew that The American Sanitary Plumbing Museum was in our backyard?!?!) and seeing that we really didn't have anything going on this weekend - we decided to go on an adventure.

We went to the Butterfly Place in Westford, MA. It was, by far, one of the coolest daytrips that we've been on. First of all - it's a huge glass greenhouse that's eighty degrees inside. BONUS!!! There was a fish pond in there, a butterfly museum, quails running around and butterflies everywhere. Butterflies like I have never seen before - green, blue, purple. And they were huge. They would fly right up to you and even land on you if you sat quietly. We got tickets for free admission on another day as well because they said that the butterflies weren't flying around like they normally do because it's so cold - but even so - this place was great. Truly amazing.

Here are some shots we got today:

After the Butterfly Place, we went up to visit Caroline's Grammy and Grampy. She had fun - and this was the scene on the way home:

And then after dinner, Caroline thoroughly enjoyed one of Uncle Carl's Gingersnaps :

A great day was had by all!
