Botanical Gardens Visit

When we visited the Botanical Gardens last month, the girls loved it.  We decided to get an annual membership then because it is paid off if you go a second time during the year, and we knew we would go back.  Sure enough, we decided to go back to see their Holiday Lights.  It was really crowded, and we had very recently been to Callaway Gardens, so we weren't terribly impressed; it did have several neat sections to it.  I'm glad we went.

This was probably my favorite spot.  Right when you walk in, the whole area has beautiful red and white snowflakes strung everywhere; it looked really cool.
 I always love the Dale Chihuly fountain, but it looked gorgeous with all the beautiful lights strung around it.
 The walkway to their great tree was all lit up.

 In their big open field, they had placed a lot of different size ornaments.  Then, the ornaments changed colors to dance to the music.  It was pretty neat to watch.
 There were lots of bugs lit up in the edible garden area.
 Flowers are always pretty with lights on them.

Another fun evening out!
