Tulips

On Tuesday we went to Thanksgiving Point to enjoy the Tulip Festival. The flowers and grounds were beautiful. The weather was not so great. It was cold and windy. But the kids didn't seem to mind.

Eric was impressed by these beautiful red tulips. He liked their soft smooth feel.

Rubie liked running up and down the path.

There were tulips everywhere. Even along the river.

A fish pond behind us!

Eric and Rubie loved feeding the fish. Rubie is picking up food pellets that people have dropped so she can throw them to the fish.

Eric is throwing food pellets out in the water.

There are the hungry fish.

I loved the beautiful yellow tulips.

This is the third year I have been to the festival. These are the most flowers I have seen blooming.

We made it over to the Children's Garden where we found Noah, Max, and Sarah. There was a pond with running water where the kids could launch boats. Rubie couldn't wait to get her hands in the water and on the boats.

Eric first found this area where he got to build with random pieces of wood.


But he too loved the boat launching.


Carolyn came along and really enjoyed looking at all the pretty flowers too.






All the kids also enjoyed the Digging Area.

We love having Thanksgiving Point so close.
