powell gardens

Right before Sabrina fell and broke her little arm, the kids and I decided to venture out of our nice little bubble of Olathe, Kansas and drive out to the beautiful gardens of Powell Gardens in Missouri.

In college, I studied Landscape Architecture and I just love visiting and walking through gardens. I even studied the landscape and gardens in Europe for a couple of months, so when I was told how beautiful the gardens where at Powell Gardens, I just had to go and see them for myself.

Chase loved watching and looking for butterflies and they were everywhere! We had so much fun just watching them fly from one flower to another and they kept us entertained. 

Sabrina loved getting out of the stroller to stretch and explore. She loved all of the flowers and was so happy during on our walk.

Powell Gardens is an absolutely beautiful place with an array of colorful and spectacular vegetation and flowers. It was fun just being able to stroll through the many different gardens and even the kids enjoyed themselves as we watch the butterflies and dragonflies visit different flowers. It was a relaxing and wonderful trip for sure.
