The Tulips are Back

There are so many pictures I made a slide show-They really tell the whole story anyway. If you want to read about the adventure then continue on.

The Tulips are out a little early this year, but it worked out perfectly for our schedule. My parents flew in Saturday morning and after picking them up at the airport we immediately drove 2 hours North to La Connor for lunch and then onto Mt. Vernon to take in the beautiful Splendor of the Tulip Fields.

There was more than just tulips there-it's been raining for what feels like forever, but over a week and there were a lot of puddles for the girls to jump in. Happy we brought the rainboots because Tyler didn't make it too long before falling in. Luckily she was wearing her skirt and Leggings, classic Tyler-and the Leggings and her wet feet were the only evidence.
Tate came down with a fever a couple of days earlier and for the most part just wanted to be held. He wasn't quite sure about Grandma and Grandpa at first, but Grandpa's silliness brings out the best in all of us and he couldn't help but play along.

Tyler on the other hand fell in love with the Dandelions at the end of the field-beautiful flowers that they are. Left a big smile on her face along with the yellow pollen from smelling those beautiful flowers so much.

You have admit that's quite the bouquet, what little girl wouldn't love that. The little old ladies parked next to us liked it.

We were on our way home and found a 2nd field which is actually the place we usually go-it was bursting in color and begging us to stop and take MORE pictures. Grandma made the girls these beautiful little pettiskirts and so we put those on with threats to stay away from the mud puddles and headed out for a photo shoot.

John was helping find "the spot" and Tyler decided to sit in. How cute is that?
