We had a very light lunch after church, then hopped in the car, told the toddlers to lean their head back and take a nap, and got to Morton Arboretum around 2 pm. Gabe and I scouted out the children's garden while the little ones slept, and then we went back to the car and returned to the garden exploring in this general order: Backyard gardens, adventure forest, step-stone pond, climbing rocks, tree-line rope ladders, root and ramp slides, evergreen maze, toddler shrub maze, gift shop. It was only less than two hours we played here, but it felt like four. It was nippy out, but everyone had lots of fun. We didn't even get outside of the children's garden which is a tiny fraction of this amazing Arboretum. The fall leaves were mostly fallen, but a lot of neat seed pods and things on shrubs throughout our walk.
