He had fallen asleep on the floor. That was a first. I couldn't resist taking a picture of my little boy sleeping like a baby.

Today Cooper and I went to a butterfly festival in a nearby town. It was an activity that we had not planned but that my sister knew about, so we squeezed it in before a lunch date nearby. It was so neat! Cooper loved "catching butterflies" on little pieces of fruit, and I loved watching my little one discover these beautiful little creatures.
Butterflies always remind me of my Granny. During my childhood she went through a phase where she enjoyed catching butterflies, and she had many butterflies and butterfly paintings framed in her home. I remember as a kid walking around her neighborhood with a big net trying to catch a butterfly like Granny. I am not sure if I ever did, but I am so thankful for the memory of spending special time with her! Today, I thought of her the entire time that we were looking at the butterflies. I am sure that she would have loved watching her
great-grandbabies looking at these creatures.

Glad you guys came to see the butterflies today ... that was fun!
What a great picture of Coop! Sounds like you guys had a busy day.
Oh, how neat. I'll have to keep my eye open for something like that around here. ...and it makes for some pretty cool pictures.
It was a fun outing! Can you send me any pics you have of Claire? I also love the sleeping picture.
What a sweet post Amy. Yes, Granny would have loved watching Cooper and Claire with the butterflies. Maybe she did. :0)
