Soaking up summertime...

The joys of summer...

Investigating...

Butterfly gazing...

After enjoying the butterfly exhibit we headed over to the children's garden.

We walked across Lake Sydnor!

Always dancing!

We had a great day with Grammy and the Heffners at Lewis Ginter Botanical Garden! Can't wait to go back...perhaps, on a slightly cooler day. Despite the heat, fun was had by all and everyone slept very well on the ride home!

Henry's birthday...continued.

Ready for the party!

G and P with their favorite little people!

Birthday boy!

Let the fun begin!

The birthday boy after his party. All cleaned up and ready for presents!

One of his favorite presents is his new chair from G and P.
