Tulip festival

Each Year, the small community of Woodburn holds a tulip festival. The town comes alive with brilliant colors and fantastic views. The local outlet mall experiences a massive influx of patrons. City folk take the time to hit the Walmart ( since it is the closest one available ) and stalk up on cheap diapers, baby wipes, and summer clothes for the kids. For a small moment we all get the chance to feel like expert gardeners and small town hicks. In essence, it is a day without cell phones, television, neighbourhood children banging on my door, or sibling squabbles. AND WE LOVE IT!

Horsey ride anyone?

The fam, just chillin!
