Hanging Out with the Salsa Family ~ Butterfly Conservatory

Earlier this spring I was excited to receive a text asking if we’d be in town mid-July.  Ummm….YES!!!  I was thrilled to hear that M3 and her family were planning a trip to Ontario and Michigan and we quickly made plans to get together for a couple of days!

Monday we met up with our wonderful friends at the Niagara Parks Butterfly Conservatory.  It had been 2 years since we were together  but we quickly picked up just where we had left off.  I love friendships that are like this!!IMG_0947

 

The girls were excited to see one another too!IMG_0955

The conservatory had over 40 types of butterflies and there were more than 2,000 in the room.   What fun we had…especially our 3 budding photographers!

Between the 3 girls I think they took over 500 pictures!  LOL so thankful for digital cameras!  Here are some of my favourites that Hannah captured.

Some of the butterflies landed on us just as we were walking around.  On my head,IMG_4774

Hannah desperately wanted a butterfly to land on her and she did her very best to sit still and patient (as still as a busy 6yo can! Smile) and hoped that a butterfly would land on her.  She was adorable!!IMG_8096

As we were preparing to leave, one of the guides noticed Hannah’s efforts to have a butterfly land on her and she found one to share with Hannah.  She was in her glory!!  I am so thankful for this guide who took the time to share a butterfly with Hannah as she had been a pretty sad little girl having not held one in spite of all her efforts.  But that all changed!IMG_8118

If you have an opportunity to visit the Niagara Butterfly Conservatory we highly recommend it!IMG_8124

What a treat to spend this time together and the best part was that our visit had just begun.  It was going to be a quick visit but we were going to make the most of every single minute!!IMG_8111
