Red Butte Gardens

We recently took advantage of the beautiful weather and headed up to Red Butte Gardens with some friends. I love going this time of year because you get to see all of the daffodils (my favorite bulb).
A sea of yellow! I can't believe all the varieties of daffodils that they have.

Gibson LOVES crossing on the rock path. He probably went back and forth 20 times.


Gibson sitting on the new wall. They tore out all the old pine tree area and replaced it with this??? I was so upset. I thought they had to rip out the pine trees, etc. for the ampitheatre, but they didn't. Instead there are a few of these round stone structures. I'm very sentimental for the old area - I used to eat my lunch on the benches there everyday when I worked at the hospital. And I would feed the cute squirrels.


Gibson pointed out this butterfly in a tree.


A cute pic of Steph and Sophia feeding the fish.


Gibson and Mason - what a couple of handsome boys!

I thought this was so cute! Gibson helped Sophia cross the rock path because she was a little timid to do it herself.

All the kids playing on the stones.



When I got home, I was inspired to take a picture of my own daffodils (they pale in comparison, but I still love them!).

Your whole yard is beautiful! I have never been to Red Butte Gardens in my entire life--pretty sad, huh? I think that is terrible that they tore down trees! Huh???!!
