Butterflies.

One of the gift the kids got for Christmas was a butterfly garden. However because it was December it was a gift that had to wait for summer and warmer weather. Recently Rick sent away for the caterpillars and helped get them going upon arrival.


They formed chrysalides

The kids loved watching them hatch. I thought it was a bit disgusting. They had this red fluid that got everywhere during that hatching process.
Finally they all hatched. We are keeping them in the butterfly garden for a few days and anticipate setting them free this weekend.
