These owl butterflies' wings were fairly pretty on the outside. The colors were a bit dull, but they blended in really well with their surroundings. However, the butterflies' wings on the inside were gorgeous! When they opened their wings to fly you would see a blending of bright, brilliant shades of blue. Are you sensing an analogy here? Perhaps a little symbolism? I know a lot of owl butterflies, how about you?


We walked past the aquatic petting area and made my mom touch all the sea creatures!

My dad is just about six and a half feet tall, and I really think he looks more comfortable sitting up at this giant table than when he's at home.

Round and round we go...a typical day in the life of Dave and Jen.


I do think Lizzy enjoyed her first visit trip to the museum. I think she enjoyed being pushed around in the stroller, mostly. We'll, try again next year!
