Last weekend we had the perfect weather for Pella's Tulip Time. The kids and I head down every year, and they couldn't wait. Luke had a birthday party for a good friend after school, so we picked him up and got there in time for the night parade. The next day we were able to see some beautiful tulips (they also were perfect this year), watch the parade and eat some yummy food. Luke and I were fans of the Dutch Corndog this year....Pella bologna dipped in corndog batter. Yum!
Reagan was so excited to head to Tulip Time that she suggested we make tulip shaped pancakes for breakfast.
Grandma and the 3 oldest girls heading to out to find some tulips.
8 of the 11 grandchildren. We didn't get any pictures with the other 3 cousins. My mom already says that we're
all dressing up together next year though, so stay tuned for that.:)
Grandma and the grandkids posing by the tulips.
I wanted one nice pictures with my kids. This is the best of the 3 we took.
This was taken right before Lauren fell into the bed of tulips and smooshed a bunch. Oops!
Out two girls that would love to be tulip queen someday.
Scholte gardens
Some tulips in Central Park...the girls picked pink ones to stand by and Drew hopped in with them.
When I asked Luke what his favorite part of Tulip Time was, he said this cannon. It must be a boy thing.:)
Grandma always had someone or two on her lap.
We aren't going to make it to Orange City's tulip festival this year, but their Orange City Christian's junior high band was down, so we got a little taste.
This was the highlight of the parade for Drew. We saw the lighted night parade the evening before and he sat on my lap until he saw Thomas heading down the street. Then he took off so he could get a front row view. The next day he kept asking when Thomas was going to come by again. He was very excited.
