grapevine botanic gardens

we've been to this fun little park in grapevine before.  we call it the spider web park because of this:
adjacent to the park is a cute little botanic garden that we've never taken the time to explore until this past week.  it's so fun!  i regretted that we had never checked it out before.  and being the photo-crazy mom that i am, i whipped out the camera while we there.

no botanic park is complete without a water fountain!
noodle took this picture of john and me.
the boys are standing in front of a butterfly garden planted with flowers that attract butterflies.
and the best part of all was the water pond complete with huge koi fish!
they even had fish food for a quarter and the way these fish went after that food suggested that no one had fed them lately!
it was just beautiful and we had fun exploring a little piece of God's creation.
