Daddy and I spent Wednesday with our kiddos and some friends from school on 2nd grade's last field trip of the school year. We spent the day at the Dallas Arboretum. We arrived around 9:20am and left at about 1:30pm The kids started their visit with some classroom time learning about insects and their life cycles. Their main focus at school the last few weeks have been on the metamorphosis of a caterpillar to a butterfly. After class we had a picnic lunch and then could go off exploring until about 1:30pm when we met up to leave to return to school. We decided that the Children's Exploration Center and Garden would be a great place for the kids to explore. They had a great time and we only saw a small portion of the garden. If you live in the DFW area, I highly recommend going. It is absolutely beautiful! We have a plan to do a day trip with some friends from school so we can spend more time there. And maybe, just maybe I can arrange a kid free day at the arboretum too. I also got to catch up with a friend from high school that volunteers there. The weather was gorgeous, the company wonderful, and the scenery was spectacular!
