The Oregon Garden: Homeschool Day

We had a lovely visit to The Oregon Garden for homeschool day. It turned out to be perfect weather. I seriously considered whether or not I wanted to go when it was forecasting 85 for the high, but the morning turned out to be overcast and almost a bit cool. We left just after lunch when it started to warm up. All the flowers seemed to pop with color.

We went with friends, and the kids just had a great time together. All the boys in our group just loved the felting station including my 3.

I am fascinated by cattails. I remember as a child thinking they were just a weird plant. I never knew what they were, or why they looked like they did. I'm now wiser with the many nature studies we've done with them. Knowledge is wonderful. I wish I had realized I could learn more about them when I was younger just by looking it up. For some reason that never occurred to me! I always just wondered.

That wraps up our visit to The Oregon Garden! We got our fill for the year!
