{Winter} Wonderland

I just realized I never actually posted these. I'm sorry my friends. Both of you I'm sure were sad you didn't see my wintery Utah pictures. 

We had one really really good snowstorm while we were in Utah. Giant soft flakes. The best snowman making snow. It was really quite magical to wake up to peaceful white everything. It was so sticky it just piled and piled on top of everything.

If you ever find yourself in Corpus Christi, TX with nothing to do, go to the Botanical Gardens. Please. It is so amazing. We could have spent all day, but the beach was calling... {More on the beach later}.

Here is just a glimpse of the amazingness: The {Orchid} House

There were so many different kinds and colors of orchids; big and small. It was amazing. I would have spend longer taking pictures of every single one, but my group was getting antsy.

We went on a not busy day so we were able to: hold a snake and a turtle in the reptile house, feed lots of birds and parrots, talk to all the parrots, walk through the amazing gardens, stroll through the orchid and butterfly houses, take a walk along the boardwalk to Alligator Lake, smell the beautiful roses, and of course {A} played at the fun playground while Baby {E} napped.
