Tulip Festival

On Thursday we packed up and went to the Tulip Festival at Thanksgiving point. We have both lived here for a good amount of time but have never gone to the gardens at Thanksgiving Point. It is 55 acres of beautiful flowers statues and bridges. It also has the largest man made water fall on earth. Right here in Utah crazy I know. You just follow the path and there are tons of cool things to see. They have 250,000 tulips all along the path. There was even this beautiful little secret garden. You go in through these old wooden doors and it is just like in the movie, there are tons of flowers and vines. There was a little amphitheater in front of the falls, where they sometimes have concerts in the summer. So it is on our list of things to do more. Especially when our kiwi Daniel comes back this summer. We had so much fun just walking and talking being surrounded by beauty and gods creations. I was also really happy that Davis stayed awake pretty much the whole time so we could talk about the flowers and look at them. I hope to do as many things like this as I can with her so she will love to be outside and love to learn about new things.
The Hutchins Tulip a very rare species






This is true happiness!


She was so smiley and giggly


Feeling the grass on her toes and tulips on her fingers. I love watching her experience new things.
It seems hard to get a picture these days when her fingers aren't in her mouth.


These were my favorite ones. The color was amazing!

Again amazing color

Love the Ergo. Best baby carrier ever!

Thank you Heavenly Father for blessing us with such beauty. It is just another testament that he loves us, when you look and see the beauty he has surrounded us with. When we feel all alone in our trials just look around and see what he has given us to make our lives full and happy and you will know you are loved.
