Laura's got a great idea. Let's go to the butterfly garden! Read books about butterflies with the girls. Talk about them. Get the girls dressed up for a great photoshoot. Good ideas. Bad ideas: dress the girls in bright colours, go when they are supposed to be napping and forget to tell them that butterflies actually fly. Oops.
Yes, sure enough, the bright colours attracted the butterflies. Unfortunately, this freaked the girls out, and they wanted to smash the butterflies. Also unfortunate is the fact that 80 year old volunteers almost have coronaries when their beloved butterflies get swatted at. So much for my photoshoot. So, here's what we were left with!

The favorite part of the show? The turtles in the aquarium downstairs :)
