Our Chicago Botanic Gardens got us in to the Morton Arboretum Free on Friday. It was a great day for it too. Lately, Josh has gotten our routine, after breakfast, we're usually out in the morning. However, he's forgotten the step where I normally do a few chores around the house before leaving (i.e. pack a snack, lunch, load or unload the dishwasher, or washing machine). He's been all about the "go-go", wanting to get in the car and go. So we arrived at the arboretum earlier than the Children's garden opened at 9:30. We checked out the children's maze. It was perfect for Josh. It was nice to walk through the Conifer woods, too. If it wasn't further from our house, I might almost like this better than the Chicago Botanic Gardens. Oh, and the HUGE bees was a check in the "con" column as well. But was beautiful!

It was still a pretty hot day on Friday, so this frog water fountains was a big hit. You can't quite tell from the picture, but Josh was soaked.
