Frederik Meijer Gardens

I love Grand Rapids. It is a great city. It’s where I went to college and met my husband. In fact, the college I went to is right across the street from the Gardens.

My boys love to go see the butterflies. We all enjoy it and have a good time.

I love the colors of the cactus and succulents. The plants are pretty cool to look at.

This thing was huge!

We tried to wear bright colors so the butterflies would land on us. No such luck. The boys were begging to go by the end because it is SO hot and muggy in there.

We were happy to go outside and spend some time in the Children’s Garden. It was a beautiful day.

Oops. No climbing allowed.

Where’s Waldo? Nope. Where’s Cole?

I would recommend going if you haven’t yet. As a homeschooler, it was the perfect field trip.

Tomorrow I will give you a sneak peek into our storage unit……it’s scary.
