When Haidyn and Paisley were 5 and 2, our family traveled to Kansas City. We were going to visit the Butterfly Garden. I remember vividly that I was telling Jason the directions, and we ended up on a dirt road.
In Kansas City. He said something to the effect that if we end up in somebody's backyard, and they have named it a butterfly garden . . . . Thankfully, the dirt road led to a wonderful location with flowers, a woman dressed as a butterfly, butterflies in several tents and locations, a gift shop, an activity room, etc. It was glorious! Except for one pesky thing, Haidyn was afraid of the butterflies!
During this particular trip, we stayed at the Drury Inn and Suites in Independence. Since then, we have stayed there many times, and today as we traveled there again, it felt like we were coming home.

Independence has become a place where we like to view it as home, especially the Drury Inn and Suites. From one of our first visits to this year's visit, check out how the girls have grown!

The first time I went to a butterfly "house" was in Seattle. It was amazing! The second time it was at the Tulsa State Fair. I love butterflies!! I love the towelheads reading!!! lol
