Botanical Gardens


We went to the Botanical Gardens here in Boise as a family. We had recently watched "The Secret Garden" so it was pretty exciting for the kids to explore a "real" secret garden. All the gardens were really pretty and peaceful....and somewhat magical! The gardens are right next to the Old State Penitentiary, so Sawyer mostly talked about wanting to go see the dungeons! Brynli on the other had found every single beautiful spot and flower. She loved every minute of it! She also found every single bench, chair, or cute spot to sit, and instantly posed for a picture! Avri was just along for the fun ride!

I love this Picture!
These next two pictures are Beautiful!



Huge Boulders!
Notice Avri with no shoes and pants.....it is her latest fashion statement that she is pretty adamant about keeping !
Another bench :)


Again, Beautiful!
She is almost there...
...whew, made it!

Love it!




Adorable!
It smelled soooo good in there!

The sun dial time was pretty close!
