Tulips.....and lots of them!

 Tulips are my favorite flowers so I was itching to go to the Tulip Festival. The weather was warm and the sun was shining so it was the perfect weekend to take a mini road trip north to Mt. Vernon.


 Knox loved smelling the flowers. Each time he saw a new one he would run up, smell it, and then smile.
 We found ourselves at RoozenGaarde which is the largest distributor of tulip bulbs in the United States. There were thousands and thousands of tulips and I just couldn't decide which ones I liked best. We made sure to grab a catalog so we could order plenty to plant this fall.




I couldn't resist grabbing a photos that showed the blue sky with the mountains in the background and of course some beautiful tulips!
After we left Mt. Vernon we took a side trip to La Connor which is small town right on the coast. Knox was tired so we decided not to get out and walk around but we decided that it would definitely be a destination for a day this summer!
