Butterfly Festival

CECPTA's All Around Dallas this month was at the Kiwanis Butterfly Festival @ Collin Creek Mall. This was perfect timing seeing as how we just released our butterflies on 4 days ago.
Last year was our first year to go. Kellyn was 3 1/2 and Rhett was only 11 months old. She loved it and he just looked around like a bump on a long last year. So we were excited to go back again this year thinking they would both love it, but I was wrong. Kellyn, of course, loved it! Rhett...not so much, but at least he was willing to go in the tent. He just didn't want any butterflies to fly around him or land on him.




A friend of mine tried to show Rhett a butterfly and get him to hold the stick it was on, but NO. You can tell by the expression on his face that he thought she was crazy if she thought he was about to let that flying creature touch him or vise versa.

So Kellyn tried showing Rhett a butterfly and he tried to swat it with his butterfly fan they gave us when we bought our tickets.

Kellyn was just in awww of these beautiful creatures.


Butterflies kept landing on her and she loved it!!
She picked out this outfit "so the butterflies will think I'm a flower."

I'll be honest, I sprayed perfume on the kids before we got there
so as to attract the butterflies and it worked!
