Natural Bridges

We thought we better take advantage of the beautiful fall so we drove down to Natural Bridges for the day. The Monarch Butterflies usually begin arriving in October for their winter migration.



Keira enjoyed looking for the butterflies and we were even able to convince her to lay down and be quiet, hoping that some would land near us. :)



After a few butterfly sightings, running along the boardwalk pretending she was a butterfly became way more exciting than being quiet.




We sent Naveen to go find some food for a picnic lunch and Keira and I made our way down to the beach. It's so much fun just to watch her run, play and dig in the sand. We were so inspired by our day that we made a butterfly in the sand. Luckily, I was smart enough to snap a quick picture - the butterfly was demolished long before Naveen returned with the food.



Keira was tuckered out by the end of the afternoon and somehow convinced Naveen to give her a ride back up to the car. What a nice dad!
