A field trip to Powell Gardens~FINALLY!!

Since yesterday was nice out, we decided to go to PG w/ my mom and youngest sister. We first ate lunch at Buffet Garden in Lee's Summit, which was really good! I was surprised at how big their buffet was and how clean the restaurant was. Anyway, once getting to PG, we first went to the inside waterfall garden, which was BEAUTIFUL!!! We then went outside to the water garden, water fountain, the Perennial Gardens, and then the Chapel. I was disappointed that most of the flowers were not in bloom, but I did get a lot of pretty pics still. The girls LOVED the waterfalls and geese. We even saw 3 snakes that were basking in the sun on some boulders by the water garden! I'm glad we were able to go, but I think we might go back in another month or so to see ALL the pretty flowers. They're building a NEW waterfall by the fountain that's supposed to be finished by summer AND they're building a whole new garden/conservatory for education that's supposed to be a 5-yr project!! I'm excited about that b/c it'd be good for the kids to do. Hehe. Anyway, you can see ALL the pics by clicking on the "OUR PICTURE ALBUMS" link on the left. Enjoy!!!!
