Filoli Gardens

We had two chances to visit these gorgeous English style local gardens this spring and summer. They are right down our road and I had never bothered with them until now. So lovely and a favorite local spot now. The kids even follow the rules of not running, staying on the paths and not touching. There is so much else to do, like march up and down the rows, look in the ponds, smell the flowers and pretend to be in the "forest."

The first visit is with my friend Elle and her littles Grace and Shepherd. The second visit is with Dan. Enjoy the highlights!
