I am a TOTAL and COMPLETE lover of spring!! I especially LOVE the flowers: Tulips, daffodils, lilacs...you name it...they're all my favorites!! And with spring also comes outdoor activities....ohhhh yeah!
There is a Tulip Farm about an hour away from us that has an annual Tulip Festival. We've lived in this area for 12 years and each year we miss it. Well, this year we decided that we had enough of missing out on all the beauty....So we skipped out on Nathan's lacrosse game and head to the festival. (It really didn't matter because he still can't play because of his broken hand)Wow!!! We loved it. WOW!! (Did I already say that?..oops) The rolling hills of tulips are amazing. We had so much fun running around taking pictures. It was all so pretty! Here are some pics to brighten your day! (disclaimer: over-abundance of pictures due to WAY too much fun, indecision and lack of control!!!) Oh yeah, and I soooo wanted to do some photoshop on these...but, it's the job's fault!!!
Here's the man I love. He brings me flowers to brighten my days and lets me spend WAY too much money each year on hanging baskets and annuals for my yard.
Now, here come a slew of pictures of my cute kids! They're not those cute little toddlers...but, they're still cute to me in a mommy sort of way :)
And Toby (my non-hunam kid) had to get in on the action....a human wanna be!
Ha-ha-ha....crazy dog! (He's probably thinking, "crazy humans!"
There was also a little place where they had some games and activities
Here's Nathan saving a little girl who got scared on the rock wall and wouldn't come down. I can't believe how big and strong he's getting!
Ducky races....Derrick won. I love the faces on these two!
What a great day!!!
What a great day!!!

Wow! So pretty! What great pictures of your whole cute family. :)
That is immaculate and gorgeous! I am jealous! Now I really need to make a trek to Oregon in the spring!
How fun and BEAUTIFUL! I'm glad you didn't miss out this year! I actually think maybe my parents went there years ago when they were visiting their friends in Oregon. Way to go Nathan for saving the little girl! I'm sure she was grateful! Your picures are all so beautiful! I wish spring were here like that already!
How I would love to live in a place where there were fields of lovely flowers. I don't even have the guts to plant flowers in my yard anymore. Too hard to keep them alive.
Those are some seriously impressive tulip fields! That festival sounds really fun...I may just put it on my list of things to go/places to go!
I think you guys got some GREAT photos! Oh...and your kids are still totally "cute," doesn't matter that they're getting older!
The pictures are fabulous. It looks like you had a great day together!
It was so beautiful!! I love your pictures. You and Bob in the flowers is a great shot! It was fabulous to see you guys there. I was gonna say how tall Nathan is getting. =) And YES, we went to Walmart too! We always have to go there when we're in the area. Fun stuff!!
Gorgeous photos all around. You can't beat that backdrop!
That last post had me rolling! The "It's the Job's Fault." You are so great!
hey its like the tulip festival we had here! awesome!
Very nice pictures! I love Derrick's face in the duck race and am proud of Nate for his chivalry in saving the little damsel in distress:) You're right, he IS looking big and strong!
We'll miss your postings.
