So I was sick on Mother's Day this year and spent most of the day sleeping rather than doing anything fun. Sickness has been in our house 5x in 6 months, quite a string of bum luck...here's hoping for a healthy summer! Today was a beautiful, sunny Friday and so we went to the Garfield Park Conservatory here in Chicago and had a really nice time. It's one of those places right nearby that we have never visited. Quite a gem of a place if you have appreciation for horticulture! Right now they are transitioning from spring to summer presentations and we look forward to visiting again soon! Admission is free and they just suggest donations. Bring your camera!

Aww, that place is so pretty! We went there a couple of years ago because they had a spectacular traveling mosaic art show.
I'm happy the whole Mother's Day weekend wasn't a bust for you with the sickness. Pretty pics!
