A great way to spend a beautiful spring day is to visit the Wooden Shoe Tulip Farm near Woodburn, Oregon.
It is not uncommon to see parents taking pictures of their children among the tulips.
A field full of sherbet ice cream!
One beauty after another...
This one looks like peppermint!
It's almost a "color overload."
What do you think of this cow train? The kids sure loved it. The tractor driver drove into a grassy field next and made zig zags and circles, causing the children to squeal with glee.
The raised bed displays near this windmill were spectacuar!

What nostalgia...an old steam tractor
A visual delight...
Can you believe these fringed beauties?
The parrot tulips were my favorites. These are called "Apricot Parrots."
A honey bee was buzzing around inside of this tulip as if it were trapped.
There were many activities for children. This swing is made from one tire turned inside out and cut into shapes like a horse.
These children were enjoying the ducky races using old-fashioned water pumps.
I couldn't resist this little cutie.
These were the greatest swings I'd ever seen!
Each child was strapped into a harness and had their very own trampoline!
There were several booths with vendors which I enjoyed, and the gift shops were very enticing.
I sure enjoyed my day!

Taking Kate back to BYU-Idaho
We were SO packed as we drove Katie back to Idaho for college. This is the way Kate rode for about 13 hours!
It was hard to say "good-bye" but we knew Kate was going to have a good experience and a lot of fun.
My exercise partner...my helper...one of my best friends!
This was one of the gorgeous views as we drove through the canyon from Rexburg, Idaho to northern Utah.

Visiting Will & Julie, Megan & Andy
There is nothing more fun than grandkids!
Two cute little boys (Jesse is Megan & Andy's son, and Drew is Will & Julie's youngest son)
Will makes the best BBQ!
Jesse is taking his turn at driving.
Andy is helping Billy get his shark kite up in the air in the school yard next door. The little guys were walking miles back and forth across the football field!
We're never too old to play (Megan and Drew)!
Sometimes Mom's have to help!
Best friends (most of the time :-)
It's all about getting down in the dirt (or sand).
Look what I can do!
Getting ready for church (pretty cooperative for having his fingernails trimmed by Mom)
Papa and Drew
Grandma and Maggie
Putting on our shoes
A little walk before church starts (Billy, Papa, Drew). Can you believe the view?
