Tulip Time

Tiptoe, through the tulips.....that is what we did this week in Holland! On Wednesday Ian had the day off from school, so we headed for the parade! Matt put our blanket out for us on the way to work, so all we had to do was find a place to park....we only parked about 2 miles away!!! The kids were great and walked the whole way there and back....Lucas and Gavin did ride in the stroller! Then, Thursday evening we left daddy at home and went to see the dutch dancers! We also checked out the fish pond and some tulips at the park. On Saturday we went to another parade...left daddy home for that one too! It was beautiful weather...all got a little sun, but the parades were favorite parts of everyone's day. Ian and Lucas liked the bands, Kendra liked all of the "queens" from the different festivals from around the state. All in all it was lots of fun, even if daddy didn't come along.....oh, the traffic wasn't too bad either:)

We went to the parade on Saturday too...but we didn't leave daddy at home. It was all his idea to go! Caroline loved the queens, too.

Hi

I read that you visited the Tulip Time klompendancing.
Did you ever see any dancer loose or break one of his/her klompen? I am from Holland, Europe and I collect everything that has to do with Dutch klompen. I still miss een pic of a dancer losing/breaking a clog

Kind regards

Annemarie
