Tulip Festival

There are these amazing gardens not far from our house.

And every year they have a tulip festival...

In years past, I've seen pictures of the tulip festival on Facebook and in blogs from friends and family here in Utah

and I was always so jealous!

So, Monday night we decided to go for a family outing there.

I'm so glad we did!

First, it was awesome!

And second, um...we had a huge windstorm the next day and snow the day after that.

I'm thinking we might have seen the festival at its peak!

Poor tulips.

I took a million pictures.

I will share a few here.

Brace yourself.

(for the beauty and also for my over-abundance of pictures)

I haven't edited any of these so just ignore the fact that they are not the best lighting etc.

I'm sure I'll be able to fix them up in Lightroom...once I decide to spend the time to do it!

Even the trees are gorgeous

I took a picture of these little flowers because I want some for my yard!
