Tulip Time!

I love this time of year here. I LOVE seeing fields of tulips. Wanna know a secret? Little patches of tulips, I can take or leave, but I LOVE fields of them.

Andy got home yesterday and we decided to go see the tulips. Unfortunately the regular fields had already been picked, but the touristy trap fields came through for us. ;)

So, here is our trip to the tulips:

In IL you see trucks of grain. Here we see trucks of tulips.

Adventure

Well, you can tell at the blog when Andy is gone because that's when I take lots of pictures.

We took a trip to our favorite little town yesterday. We were actually looking for a garden here on the island that is supposed to be beginning to bloom beautifully... but I had forgotten how LONG our island is and so I gave up and turned around.

Anyway, we had fun. We had a picnic, did a little shopping for Baby Ingrid, played at a little park--good stuff.

Oh and you just have to see Carolyn in pigtails. She won't leave them in for more than 10 seconds, but darn if she's not cute with them!

Hmmm... What's this?

Easter Dress--which lasted for all of.... Oh... 30 minutes once we got to church. She still looked awfully cute in the too-small jumper the nursery ladies had found to put her in, but... ah the dress.

She LOVES the Nemo chair.

But after all that tooling around, a girl's gotta rest (and so does her Daddy).
