Tulips

Last weekend we traveled about an hour away to see these beauties at the Skagit Valley Tulip Festival:

It was so fun! There were fields and fields of blooming tulips surrounded by mountains. Gorgeous! I guess it was started by an immigrant from Holland 27 years ago.

We couldn't have done anything better that day. The weather was gorgeous and the tulips were breathtaking. Brad and I decided that living near fields of flowers would be pretty awesome. They just make everyone cheerful. Enjoy the pics!
