Tulip Festival 2009

Rebecca, Benjamin and I went to the Tulip Festival at Thanksgiving Point today with Chad's mom. We had a wonderful time walking around and admiring all the beautiful flowers. At the gardens they plant over 250,000 bulbs and then dig them up each year. You can buy the bulbs at a sale at the end of May. My tulips haven't blossomed yet so I am very jealous. We spent 3 1/2 hours walking around, enjoying the flowers, playing in the children's garden and having a picnic. I hope you enjoy the pictures.
