After a full day of cooking (and cleaning up), Connie suggested we all drive to Gainesville on Friday to enjoy the Natural History Museum's butterfly exhibit. We headed out and stopped at Sonny's BBQ for lunch before getting to the museum. The butterfly exhibit was very crowded and we arrived just as one of the butterfly experts was giving a talk and releasing several different kinds of butterflies, so the crowd was really backed up. Once she finished, we walked through and looked at the many beautiful butterflies but it was still crowded and hard to keep eyes on all the kids. After finishing that exhibit we walked around the rest of the museum and really enjoyed it. Olivia, Sofia and Chandler hung out with CK and I as we walked throughout the museum and saw the exhibits. Finally, we headed home and CK and Sofia took a sunset flight in the Cub before we all enjoyed leftovers from Thanksgiving and the kids played. It was a fun day and the cousins had a great time together.
