Holiday Magic

When we stepped into the United States Botanical Gardens

we could feel Christmas in the air!

We also felt the constant mist sprinkling from the ceiling, which made complete sense since we were in a huge greenhouse.  I was merely a head of lettuce at the grocery store spritzed with water every 5 minutes.  So much for the curled hair.
