The Wheeler Family sent the girls a butterfly net for their birthdays. So in May we sent away for the caterpillars. Then we watched them get big and fat and hang upside down. Just a few weeks later we had about 8-10 butterflies flying around in the net. Livi took them in to share with her K. class before we let them go. (which Mike and I then found out that her class had a net just like ours in the classroom? :{) Needless to say we are working with Liv on sharing and talking about her day with us. Anyway, here are some pictures of the process and letting them go. Thanks Aunt Mara, Uncle Josh, Ella and Brooklyn...we had a lot of fun with this project!

| When we let them go we actually got to hold them and watch them fly away. |

| One flew out and landed on Maddies back. She was not ok with this :{ She liked holding them but I think the idea of it being on her back was scary. |
