It was such a beautiful day, and after church we decided to meet up with Robby's family in Fort Worth. Our first plan, the zoo, was a bust because there were SOOOOOO many people there that we would have had to park down the road & across the (big) street, so we went for plan #2 - a trip to the FW Botanic Gardens! Even though Robby was bummed about the plan change, I was thrilled because it was where we got married, and we've only been back once since June 2007!
Although we looked at a few plants/flowers, most of them weren't blooming yet - only in the budding stages - so we settled for sitting in a field and just hanging out in the shade. The babies (toddlers? agh, Abigail & Mason are growing up!) explored the area and played. Luckily, I had my trusty kite with us, so we were able to take advantage of the wind! Unfortunately, I still didn't have the kite string so we had to go with my improvised thread. The kids still liked it though, as lame as it looked! Also, Mimi had some bubbles in her bag of tricks and the kiddos loved chasing them.
When we finished with the gardens, we went to Trinity River Park in search of a good playground. The playground we found was PACKED with kids, and the equipment seemed kind of dirty looking (I thought about writing to the city! as many people as there were that used it, it should be taken care of better!). Even so, we let go of our icky feelings and let the kids play on the smaller toddler playground. It was so nice to just meet with family and relax in the sunshine! March is becoming one of my favorite months!
