On Saturday we went on a wildflower hike at Memaloose Hills. We had purchased this outing at Max's school auction, and lucked out with great weather. The hike was lead by the amazing director of Max's school, and there were a couple of other families and students to make the whole thing even more fun.
Here are a few shots from the day:
Then today we went on one of my favorite spring outings - the Tulip Festival. Honestly, I was going to let us opt out this year. But when Max heard that this morning, he insisted that we just had to go - and I wasn't going to argue. It was another beautiful sunny day, and we got there as soon as they opened (a key to enjoyment on a nice weekend day during prime bloom). The fields were incredible as always, but I adored the hazelnut grove at the end of this year's field. The beautiful rows of trees, the soft light - just magical. The boys loved the little cow train, the duck pumps, and the bounce houses. All around, it was a great time, and I'm glad we didn't skip it.

What a wonderful weekend! I'm so happy that you all enjoyed the beauty outside during this brief break in our spring insanity.
Oh Dear Lord, the boys in those tulip fields.... simply breathtaking! I dream of tulip fields. When can I move near you? I must get my Bella in that field of tulips.... and FAST!
That must be a peaceful place to take a photowalk. Lovely shots.My Fav is the one with your boy and tulips
Oh my TULIPS! I am so jealous. I was there too early for them last year, and won't make it up there at all this year. Boo.
But I'm glad you guys took advantage. I will live vicariously.
You need to post more pics of yourself, You are beautiful!! No wonder your boys are so gorgeous!!
