Grassland Gardens trip

Sunday, we headed out to Miltonvale to Grassland Gardens. Pilgrim Tweety had to accompany us...Raychel loves Tweety too (go figure!)







Grassland Gardens is a beautiful place West of Clay Center about 15 miles. The lady who owns the business grows MANY different kinds of grasses. In the fall, you pick out which kinds you are interested in and then pick up the buckets in the spring. We visited to see all the grasses, enjoy the gorgeous day, and dream about the day we can afford to buy some to landscape our back yard! It was a warm day, just a littlle windy!

Raychel thought that the grasses were pretty neat. She enjoyed touching their soft fluff, caterpillar like fuzz, and even the more rough feeling grasses. Most of all, she enjoyed her time with Mommy and Daddy outside!



















Daddy fed her a bottle under the pergola, before we went up to her store. She makes beautiful dried flower arrangements and we had walked up to her house to view them. Upon entering the store (about 5 seconds later) Raychel started a high-pitched squeal of unpleasantness. We did not understand WHAT was wrong and walked out of the store. As soon as we hit the fresh air she stopped. Puzzled, we walked back inside...and again she squealed! Once outside, she stopped! Drawing any conclusions here? Raychel does NOT like the smell of dried flowers! It was pretty amazing how fast she went from crying to happyness and back to crying!
