Sawyer and I went with some friends to the Skagit Valley Tulip Festival mid-week. The boys babbled away at each other in the back seat, and then fell asleep for the rest of the hour+ journey north. There are a couple of major farms to go to, and the times I've been before we went to Tulip Town, however, this year we went to Roozengaarde. We had a wonderful time looking at all the varieties of bulbs and blooms in the garden, and then wandering the fields with the boys.
My favorite part was seeing how, in the midst of millions of beautiful tulips, the boys hardly seemed to notice. Forrest was more interested in playing with his stroller's wheels, while Sawyer was having a great time in the dirt.
Love the whole boy/dirt/barefoot combo! And the "discovery" pointer finger!
The best part of all, though, was how Sawyer crawled on the dirt. Whenever something is a different texture on his knees, he puts his little rear end up in the air to avoid touching his knees to the strange feeling surface, at least until he gets used to the new texture. I think it's so funny and cute when he does this! When we got home, we were tired, and VERY dirty. BUT...we had fresh cut Tulips in hand - a wonderful little reminder of the beautiful day we spent in the Tulip fields of Skagit Valley!
