We began the day Saturday with "Carrot cake pancakes" with a buttercream drizzle and maple syrup, then after some play and a nap, went to the gardens.
Here is Lucas and Tilly enjoying the Orchid Centers flowers- pssst, its my favorite place, too!
Here is Ewan and Rowan as "scarecrows". Right now they have over 100 scarecrows decorated throughout the center for children of all ages to enjoy!
Here is Matilda and Lucas as scarecrows- Tilly is trying to see Lucas as one instead of posing for us!
In the childrens garden, they have some pretty sculptures the kids can pose on.
Here is Rowan on a chicken:
Ewan on the same chicken:
At the end of the garden there are some sprinklers that children can play in on warm days. We just stripped Lucas and Tilly down to their diapers, and brought a towel to dry them off with. They had so much fun!!!
Lucas loves water and immediately took to playing in the sprinklers.
Matilda was hesitant at first, but by the time she had a few minutes of skirting them and getting used to the water, she was ready to play.
We were all exhausted by Sunday evening, and crashed early. :-)

Hi Lizzie,
Thanks for the visit and compliments on my house! Wow two sets of twins, my goodness your hands are full! It is such a blessing though, I have three boys but they are alot older than your group, mine are 19, 14, & 12. I hope you find the time to visit again and I enjoyed looking through your blog and all the adventures and fun! Loved the picture with your little one looking so sweet and in the background your other jumping from the couch to the mattress, looks like my boys!
