Friday Field Trip




Today started last night.
Lucy came to spend the night with us, and she had such a good time.
She got to play "Mousetrap" with John....



She played "dress up" with Lilly this morning, when Lilly came to stay for part of the day.



This morning, after the boys finished most of their school work, we went down to Baltimore City, to the Botanical Gardens. Laura came up with the idea last night, and it was just perfect!
Brendan and Paul are doing Botany this year, and we were able to see so many wonderful plants!


There was a little fish pond....




A couple of HUGE Aloe plants....


Paul found this rock interesting...

There was a Rose Garden....

With a really cool sundial sculpture that shows the time in different timezones....

There were Orchids....

The kids ate lunch and then ran through the trees and lawns...
