This morning we said goodbye to our friends Kim and Sienna.  We had such a great time visiting with them this week.  In the afternoon we went to the Chattahoochee Nature Center Flying Colors Butterfly Festival.  The highlight of the day was the butterfly release and the lethargic butterfly that was willing to pose for pictures.  No butterflies were harmed during the course of our photo session.

What's a festival without a little face painting??

We met up with our friends the Parkers.  We also spent the day with them at last year's butterfly festival.

Nice and clean after a long day.
