A lot more tulips than our first trip to be sure...
The kids were super excited to put their heads in the big tulips, I couldn't believe we actually got a shot with everyone's head in the holes and looking forward...small miracle for our family :)
The last few trips to the gardens Anthony's mom would get these golf carts to get around in...the kids love them...
The kids played for a long time here and served us many cheeseburgers and milkshakes from their special counter...
The kids love the water fountain, Jakey kept trying to dive in...
So pretty...
Bunches of tulips..
Had to put in this picture since Jakey actually looked at the camera, he was so loving just running around and looking at the little rocks (maybe throwing a few too) on the path...
Sabrina "locked" herself in the stairway rails on our way out and could only be saved by grandma; she kept saying "Grandma, save me..." yes, she is a drama queen a little bit.
2011 was a weird year for the Tulip Festival. Our first trip was a bust as I posted before and the second trip had tulips in bloom or expired on one half of the trail and tulips weeks away from blooming on the other half. Not our most successful trips as far as flowers go, but I think we will always be grateful that we got to go with Anthony's mom twice this year. Every year we go with her and eat at the Trellis Cafe before we head into the gardens. When we would hit breathtaking bursts of tulips she would always say, "Daddy would love this!" (this year the exception). It's one of our favorite things to do with her. We will always cherish our memories of going to the garden with Grandma.
