Botanical Gardens

Daddy has been on "staycation" for the past week and a half, so we've had the chance to visit several favorite St. Louis spots as a family.

Our first big outing was to the Botanical Gardens where, of course, the kids played in the children's gardens for quite a while.

Enjoying the water on a hot day.

Thirsty anyone??

The gardens are decorated for the lantern festival this summer.

So many beautiful creations!
