butterflies | A. E. Welch

My entire family, including my incredibly happy husband

Me, silly? You tell me. Today, my family and a couple of friends of ours visited a local butterfly pavilion. I’ve had a very exciting week with many emotional highs and lows and it felt good to get out of the house and enjoy the company of good friends and my lovely family. After having a great lunch, we headed over to view the buggies, tarantulas and butterflies at the Westminster Butterfly Pavilion. Although, we’ve lived in Colorado almost a year now, we are originally from Georgia, both my family and the couple we were with today, and we haven’t really lost our wonderfully thick Southern accents yet. So, I thought posting some pictures of my family and friends enjoying our outing today and finishing it off with a two-minute video of my heavily-accented narration of the butterfly pavilion would be a good way to end my Saturday and most certainly fit in the category of a Silly Saturday. Btw, we have seen butterflies before but you have to understand my phone’s camera doesn’t do justice to just how furry and bird-like some of these butterflies were and so when you hear excessive squealing or yelling coming from me or one of my companions, just know that it was totally justified. Feel free to comment on any of the pics or my goofy accent Enjoy!
