Springs preserve

Last Friday, Stephanie and I took the boys to the Springs Preserve. My aunt told me about this place and we figured it would be a nice outing for the kids and us. It was a lot more fun than I had anticipated, even though Jake was a little cranky the whole day... he didn't get his afternoon nap.



We got there, and before we even got our tickets, there were beautiful flowers, a small river and some caves that we took the boys pictures in. Once through the gates, we went into a building that had so many different things going on. There was a train car for the boys to look around in,


statues that us girls took pictures with,



and interactive learning games we played.



Outside were different animals and we took the boys pictures with the large statue animals. So funny!

There was also a flood reenactment room that was really cool!
The gardens that were at the Springs Preserve were so beautiful. There were so many different types of flowers and plants. I loved it! There was also a playground for the kids that had a train that Jayden loved
and Jake decided to be a turtle!


The last place we went through was how to be energy efficient. They had a garbage truck that showed how to help energy, a car simulator and a couple other cool things.
It was a great day.
