Easter Weekend–Tulip Festival

For Easter weekend, Jacob and Stacey drove up to visit.  It was a short trip since they arrived late Friday night and left Sunday evening, so we tried to cram in a lot of activities!  First thing Saturday, Stacey agreed to go running with me for my training, then Jake and Shane went to buy Jake a new road bike while Stacey and I braved Deseret Book with all five kids to buy a few Easter items, after which we headed straight over to Landon’s t-ball game.  It was a fun but busy morning!

After we finished up at Landon’s t-ball game, we headed down to the tulip festival in Woodburn.  Jake and Stacey had heard how we had gone a few weeks ago, and they wanted to see it too.  It was super busy this time since it was on a Saturday and BEAUTIFUL weather. 

We started out by walking through the tulips.  The cousins were all enjoying being together running up and down the rows, smelling the flowers, and of course posing for hundreds of pictures.  They of course got lots of comments from the passers-by.  (Thank you Stacey for all the great pictures that you took!)

Ethan was excited to be able to get down and walk.  He’s a cutie!

After a nice walk through the tulips, we headed over to the kid area, where the boys got to enjoy the big slide, the duck racing, the yellow shoes, and the photo spots once again.
