Ginny's Tulip video


Ginny was REALLY excited to see all the flowers and colors right at her height. She ran all around the garden, and would stop and point at tulips that caught her eye.

Tulip Festival

Mt Vernon, WA has a Tulip Festival every year in April, and we ALWAYS talk about going, but have never managed to make the trek over to see the tulips. This year, we decided we couldn't miss another spring, so we hit the road, and then the ferry, and then the road again to get there.

Ginny is relaxing in her carseat waiting to load on the ferry....


Todd and I spent the ferry ride from Port Townsend to Coupeville chasing Ginny around. She is getting hard to keep up with... notice the blurry little feet in the picture below :)


We had to duck out on the deck for a few minutes and check out the scenery.


And then we were there! The valley has all kinds of fields and farms, and we stoppped at Rosen farms to wander through their fields and gardens.

Ginny LOVED all the color right at her height, and ran all around the garden.


They had amazing beds. Our favorite was the one planted like a rainbow.


The view across the valley was beautiful. It stopped raining for our whole visit to the farm, and we even had about a half hour where the sun poked through the clouds. You can't ask for more in Seattle in April!


Todd took LOTS of pictures of the fields....




I put on my mud boots and we tromped around in the fields.... Ginny is a squirmy worm these days, and it takes a quick hand to get a picture of her before she's off and running.





We will definately be going back next year... And, now we're scouting around the yard for a place to lant some bulbs... we're hooked on tulips, that's for sure!
