Tulip Festival






Today Tyler and I went to Skagit Valley for the annual Tulip Festival. We started off the day at a Salmon BBQ at the Kiwanis Lodge at Hillcrest Park. We each got a piece of Salmon, baked potato, garlic bread, cole slaw, pink lemonade, and ice cream. We sat outside on a picnic table and enjoyed the sunshine. We headed next to the fields of Tulips. They were rows and rows as far as you can see of red and yellow tulips. There were also fields of yellow daffodils. It is a pretty amazing sight to see. Definitely worth it to go up there and see the blooms. After taking pictures, we made friends with a cat that I wanted to take home with me. He was hiding and lounging in between rows of tulips. We almost didn't get home without him!! He followed us for quite awhile before finally giving up on us. He was so cute! We drove around the countryside and we then went to the Farmhouse Restaurant which is famous for their mile high lemon meringue pies. Tyler and I decided to eat dinner there and he got BBQ Ribs and I got Turkey pot pie and we both got ceasar salads. The pie was so good and very delicious! We then drove home in which Tyler proceeded to sleep the whole way home. It was a very nice day and very relaxing. Lots of sun and very enjoyable!!! Wish everyone could have a chance to see the flowers.
