Hatching Butterflies!

Throughout the month of May and into June, the kids and I had a little science experiment going.  We hatched our very own painted lady butterflies!  My pics of their life cycle did not turn out, but I got some great ones of the day we set them free!  They were so cool, they didn't want to leave!  They kept coming back and landing on us which the kids thought was so awesome.  They even tried to talk us into letting us keep one.  We said no, of course, because we had no way of feeding it and we wanted it to live long and prosper.  (lol)

They loved Owen!  They came back to him over and over again!
