Family Outing Day

We ended up staying in Dallas for Labor Day weekend this year. But we did manage to take a little outing this afternoon. We met my friend Kelley and her almost-three-year-old, Maggie, at the Heard Natural Science Museum and Wildlife Sanctuary in McKinney, Texas.

In addition to watching ringtailed lemurs play, we saw the coolest butterflies.

From now until September 28, the Heard has a Native Texas Butterflies exhibit in a greenhouse-like environment where patrons can get up-close and personal. The exhibit includes species such as tiger, giant, and zebra swallowtails, giant whites, monarchs and zebra longwings, to name a few.

Don't you think the Creator must've had a blast thinking of so many ways to express beauty?
