On Friday, we visited the Ft. Worth Botanic garden. The highlight of the day for me was finding this patch of clover in the rose garden in which to take a photo for a St. Patrick's Day card of Owen!! This isn't the one I used for the card; but, isn't it neat?
We visited the cactus garden (so small it was a joke), the Japanese Garden, which was our fav, had lunch, and then finally found the 'Glass House', which turned out to be closed. Lots of little disappointments, but a fun day all-in-all.
Here are my mother-in-law and Maureen feeding the coy!
This butterfly is at the entrance of the exhibit that opened the day after our visit ;-)
Then, we went to the Gaylord Texan
...check out O with the Longhorn!!
And then there was snow. Can you beleive this? 75 degrees on Sunday and snowing on Monday!!

It looks more like a stick right now, but hopefully it will succeed and we can watch it grow with O.
O had fun smiling with Grandma Q!
Sunday, we celebrated Mother's Day as March 2nd is Mother's Day in England! We had lunch at the Cheesecake Factory. This pistaccio cheesecake was fabulous!
Then, we went to the Gaylord Texan
...check out O with the Longhorn!! Today, we had an afternoon tea party! Mom E. and Grandma C. joined us! We had the Queen's cucumber sandwiches, ham, salmon, cake, and biscuits! Too much fun!
