Butterfly Rainforest

Janice, Richard, Elizabeth and Ezekiel came to visit us early in December. We took them to the Butterfly Rainforest (where we take all of our visitors). It was cold out, but we still got to see a lot of butterflies. And they kept landing on Janice and Elizabeth!


Rosemary and Ezekiel are very close in age. Ezekiel is 2 and a half months older. We credit Ezekiel with teaching Rosemary how to pull up. She'd been trying to, but after his visit she mastered it.

I thought this pic of Elizabeth and Ezekiel was adorable. You can see their blog here. He is such a happy little boy!
This butterfly landed on Janice during the butterfly release. It stayed there all the way until the end. You can see Richard with Ezekiel on the other side of the bridge. The man on the far right of the picture was the one who released the butterflies. Essentially he just picked the up out of the mesh cage and threw them and off they went.
I think that Rosemary was trying to catch a butterfuly here. That or touch one of the flowers.
