The Butterfly Museum

This past week I went with my sister Natalie and my friend Mitzi and her son Marshall to the Butterfly museum. Ella loves butterflies and always tells me which kind she sees, so I wanted to check it out.

 Ella's dream was to have a butterfly land on her finger, we tried for a little while and then I told her we had five more minutes before we needed to leave, so that she could try one more time. I really felt bad because I thought there was a next to none chance that it would actually land on her finger....well....

 

 

Here she is with a butterfly on her finger and I think I have never seen her happier. She was so excited.

As you can see in this picture she used a little coercion from the butterfly who was on the ground to get it on her finger, but it crawled up and stayed there long enough for a picture then flew away. It was great and she talked about it the rest of the day!

Channing was ready to eat lunch ;)

I love Marshalls face in this...haha! There were butterflies flying everywhere which was neat but there were way too many disgusting insects to look at inside! We finished it off with a nice little picnic. It was a fun little outing.
