Only a few miles from Anacortes, there are fields and fields of tulips and daffodils... they blanket the landscape and delight all that get the chance to see the blooms! John and I are amazed how bright they are... just breathtaking!
The Skagit Valley Tulip festival draws visitors the whole month of April to our area to take pictures of the fields as well as enjoy several other activities planned in celebration of Spring. We had taken Grandma and Grandpa to one of the gardens when they were visiting, but the fields hadn't bloomed yet... what a difference a couple of weeks can make! We took some shots of Mailee yesterday... I hope to go back this week to take a few more to hopefully get a perfect picture of her and the blooms. But in case that doesn't happen here are a few:

I just can't imagine how many tulip bulbs would be in the ground for such as mass of color. It takes your breath away. And your baby is adorable!
Dear Sweet Mailee,
You are still the most beautiful flower!
I have to admit though that the tulips are magnificent at their full bloom. I am so glad that your Mom and Dad taking you to the tulip fields for photos as it provides such a colorful background. Now we need to see more of you smiling and smelling ... the tulips. Life in Anacortes is good in Springtime!
We miss you so much,
Grandma R
