Botanical Gardens in October

We have not been to the Botanical Gardens much at all this year, but did manage to get there recently. This aster was absolutely beautiful, wish it was in my garden!!! Maggie was on a roll and threw Ben's shoe in one of the pools. He didn't need any encouragement to go in & get it!!!!

I took a picture of my 3 children, it wasn't completely clear, but the only one I got that day!!!!

Well, the only one I got when they were posing!!!!

The grounds leading up to the house are always spectacular at this time of year

The kids had a lot of fun running around in the maze. Unfortunately, Ben wasn't very well & we had to leave early, so didn't get chance to do everything. Better luck next time.....
