Chicago Botanic Gardens

On Monday we went to the Chicago Botanic Gardens.

Eli gets SO excited when he sees ducks ("duck duck!")



There is a really neat train exhibit that has models of places across the United States - everything is made out of natural materials.

Oh, you're making me so homesick for Chicago with all these posts!!! My little Aidan would absolutely go bonkers for the train exhibit at the Botanic Gardens---wish we were there!

The gardens look so beautiful this time of year! This was Phil's parents' turn to visit us, so we toured the Rose Gardens here in Portland instead of the Botanics. Hey, his folks live about 1 mile from there and are lifetime members. If you ever need some nice elderly folks to hang out with, let me know! They would love Eli!
