We had the wonderful opportunity to play with Aubrey and Garrett over Labor Day weekend. Grandpa was busy helping Casa upgrade the computer server so I went on adventures with them.
Ocean Institute with all new discoveries.
Dissecting a squid...quite the process.
Stopped at Plant Depot to buy Milkweed. They have an awesome pond with fish and turtles.
And, Linda Lane, the park at the beach. New equipment and so much fun!
New Milkweed plants set in my garden, waiting to go home with them. We spotted a Monarch laying eggs on their plant!
New aspiring scientists looking at things from the garden through the microscope.
They had so much fun with water balloons. Aubrey made bird nests in the trees with garden trimmings and the eggs were water balloons...so creative.
Bare foot Aubrey and Garrett found many nails poking up through the deck. We gave them each a hammer and they took care of that problem!
A visit to the Casa and Garrett found and brought home Monarch caterpillars for their new butterfly habitat and Milkweed plants.
Dolphins were giving us all a show while visiting Casa. Kids have binoculars but you could see them better without.
Gathering more caterpillars to take home to their new Butterfly garden.
Playing in my garden, making a fort and 'store' to sell fishing gear. We set up fishing poles with bobbers to 'fish' in the fountain.
Precious memories for Grandma...

They had such a good time! We've counted 7 baby caterpillars from the eggs! They're busy munching away :)
Received Aubrey's hand written letter about the caterpillars...brought tears to my eyes knowing how much they are enjoying the butterfly process.
Wow! the amount of creativity these two show is awesome!!!
