Japanese Spring Festival

We headed to the Fort Worth Botanic Gardens recently to soak up the fresh air and sunshine. They hold a nice festival each spring. The Japanese gardens have lots of great little paths and bridges and steps. My kids loved it!
While there we checked out a martial arts demonstration. Since then Noah has been running around the house yelling, "hi-ya!"
You should have seen the gleam in Noah's eyes when he saw this kid with the stick. You could just see his mind working, imagining the possibilities of getting a stick of his own and what he could do with it. I can't wait for Noah to be old enough to sign up with a class.

As you can imagine, the large pond was filled with koi. They also had plenty of ducks with little duck babies!
And waterfalls.
And turtles!
It was a relaxing day.
Brad and I sampled some the sushi and rice bowls they had for sale while the kids watched the animals.



We're so happy spring is finally here!
