Dallas Arboretum

Ryan and the kids and I went to the Dallas Arboretum last weekend and it was absolutely beautiful. We were able to just sit and relax the entire day and Ryan and I actually both felt relaxed (which is a big deal). It was such a beautiful day.It is totally worth it to go once a year at least just to get a cute family picture. I think next year I will dress the family up and take a real one. In May they are changing all the beds out and putting in new annuals. So it should be just as gorgeous.


I didn't know if Maddison would like just looking around at all the flowers but she loved it. She asked the names of them and smelled them all. She even had a yellow nose by the end of the day because of the pollen. She also chased butterflies and as you can see ladybugs around.
Even James had a great day.


They have a Texas theme going right now so they had a little horse rodeo where Maddison tried to rope James. She was so determined to make the haystack cow move it was cute. Then she got to do barrel racing on a horse on a stick. They had a Wild Bill Coyote cowboy walking around.


So if you don't think your child would like it I would say give it a try.
