On Sunday our kids were feeling sick, so I stayed home with them. It was such a beautiful day that we did need to get out.....can I help it that the city of Edmonton wanted to thank all those who use and enjoy the city recreation facilities/venues. So we decided to go the the Muttart Conservatory. It is a nice place to visit. It was just recently re-done and what they added makes it a nice place to sit and enjoy. We visited each of the four pyramids and enjoyed each "zone": tropical, moderate, temperate and a show pyramid that was filled with all shades of pink flowers in honor of breast cancer awareness.
Here we are in the tropical zone.
There were a few nice little water features, this one was a little water fall behind us. They had some fish ponds as well.
In the atrium there was an art display and the calligraphy group from the city that was printing names. So the kids each had their names done fancy.
Afterwards we headed outside and the kids loved running up and down the hills and finding the apples that they had on the trees outside. There were a few more wonderful flower beds outside that I wandered around to enjoy.
We enjoyed ourselves and all of Heavenly Fathers creations that we don't usually get to see most of all we enjoyed being together as a family...sick or not.
