The Gardens.

Ben's workation came to an end and we abruptly thrust him into family bonding. Friday afternoon we spent some quality family time at the Botanical Gardens. The weather was perfect and all of Huntsville agreed the best place to be was climbing tree houses.

I'm happy to say we all survived and we even got to see some friends along the way. Especially one of my favorite people in the world(other than family!) - Sara Jane Tarter. She was my 2nd grade and 5th grade teacher. Best teacher in the world and sweetest lady ever. Also saw Hayden's teacher. She will be working at the Garden's next year. It is a wonderful opportunity for her, but I hate to see her leave WCA. It is amazing that neither has children, yet they both have the gift to teach.

I digress. After spending a couple of hours in the great outdoors, we continued our family time with Pizza buffet. Ben got to say good bye to his buddy who is moving to Colorado. I think we might still be there if it hadn't been for our kids trying to turn cartwheels in the booth.

Our big night ended with some wrestling, baths and bed. Sam's would have to wait until Saturday.
