We recently had Gabe's Grandparents and Mom visit for a week, and one of the things we did while they were here was go to the Dallas Arboretum. It was a special week called March Blooms and all the flowers were out and it was gorgeous. It is full of different gardens and they also had houses they built to celebrate some famous nursery rhymes.

One of the houses they built but I don't know the nursery rhyme!
Papa Joe trying to get Reyse to pet the animals
Grandma finally had to make her touch one
It was kids day when we were there so they had a petting zoo, and face painting
Another exhibit, this one had water dripping from the top
Papa Joe and Reyse, Best Friends!
This one was Dr. Seuss!
They had to climb a small hill to get to this one, they were very proud!
Tulips are my absolute favorite, and there were millions!
The Arboretum is set in along a huge lake and they have big open fields to for the kids to play and roll down the hills, we brought a big picnic lunch and took a nice break!
This is the Women's gardens and one of my favorites, The kids got a giggle out of the statues!
They have all these little pioneer home replicas to show the kids how people use to live
I don't want to even think how dirty those beds are
Reyse had to get in on the action, and do everything her sisters do.
We had so much fun and I am really grateful that they came to visit. I know we live really far away and it's alot of trouble and expense for every one to come and visit us but we love when they do and we can't wait to see you again!Thanks to Theresa and Carmen and Joe for all there help and the little mini vacations that I got while they took over the kids, I love when you visit and am truly thankful to have you guys here. The kids love it too and come back anytime!
