Matt was really sweet and dedicated our whole weekend at the winemakers house as my "birthday weekend." I have not put that much focus on my birthday since I was a kid, and it was a lot of fun. In fact, it's probably the first time a long time I haven't been in the hospital on my birthday. Anyways, we got word of this place called Butterfly World and we figured that it would either be awesome, or kind of a joke. Well, it was awesome. There were hundreds of butterflies all over the place and all different colors. There were a couple with bright blue wings, but they were quite elusive and we couldn't catch a photo of them. My favorite part was the wall of cocoons. They had a wall with about 500 cocoons on it and they were all in different stages. Some of them were totally closed, but wiggling and wiggling and wiggling like something was just getting ready to pop out. And some of them had butterflies that had just emerged and were drying there wings. One of the photos is of a red and black butterfly that has just emerged. It was really amazing. My favorite butterfly was the one with the clear wings. The second picture. When they flew, they looked like dragonflies.
