Tulip Festival...


Yesterday,  My husband and I went on a day trip
to the Tulip Festival in La Conner, Washington.
It's just a couple of hours north of my home.

It is mostly a car trip,
there are hundreds of acres of tulip and daffodil fields
to see!

Not all the tulips are Pink...
but I am joining Pink Saturday,
so thats mostly what I'm showing you
and besides.. they are also my favorite:-)

 
 

Rows of pink tulips as far as the eye can see...
 
 

It was a really ugly weather day...
I wish the sky had been blue.

 
 

This is at RoozenGaarde...
A Beautiful Display garden in Mount Vernon.

 
 
RoozenGaarde had 3 acres of display gardens,
all stunningly beautiful!
They had 1/4 million bulbs planted!

You can visit their website at http://www.tulips.com/


 
 

While we toured the downtown area,  I snapped a few pics..
The towns are loaded with beautiful old houses.
I loved this giant pink crabapple tree in full bloom.
I loved the house... it was for sale too!

 
 
and this sweet pink house!


This is my first time joining Pink Saturday
last week LV from  Thoughts From Meme's Corner
was kind enough to introduce me to the group!
Dont forget to check in and see what she is showing today!

Pleasec Stop in and Visit..
 Beverly at How Sweet The Sound
for PINK SATURDAY

Easter Cloches...


Its Time...
For Easter Cloches!!


This sweet little chick...
lives in a cloche by the window...


She is covered in velvet...
and has layed an clutch of pastel eggs.


This rabbit is also covered in velvet
(see a trend here?).
I just loved him when I bought him because..
he reminds me of the velveteen rabbit
(in his early days, before his fur was rubbed thin).


and trend alert number two...
rabbits with baskets on there backs.
I now have three & never saw it coming!


This rabbit is made of iron..
I showed him a couple weeks ago,
in his dark natural coloring.

Then I painted and distressed him white,
(maybe that is trend three?).
he is carrying paper larkspur on his back.

Hope everyone is planning a great weekend?
I am off on a daytrip to LaConner,
to visit tulip festival today.
I'll be sure to take some pictures to share :-)

I am gonna try to upload my post today from
my laptop... we'll see how it goes!
