Tulip Festival '12

I have been loving this awesome weather lately!  One of our fun traditions has been going to the Tulip Festival and we didn't miss it this year either - we had such a great time.  This year we went as a family with most of Spence's siblings, spouses and kiddos and grandma.  It was a perfect day and honestly extremely crowded but thank goodness it is a huge place, it didn't seem crazy at all!  Beautiful day!  We were able to capture some cute pics of everyone...

Our little fam - I love that Jax and Rio love their sunglasses so much!  So cute

The Morris cousins: Hayden holding Cole, Jax, Brinlee, Rio, Ethan, Tyler and Austin

Aunt Erin & Cole and Aunt Kisty & Ethan

Of course this is no surprise - my kids found the water and were glued there for quite a while - so fun!  It gave me much to look forward to this summer knowing how much they LOVE the water :)

What a cute pic right?  Utter joy on Rio's face and utter determination for Jax trying to get his little, tiny leaf to touch the fountain

Best little buddies

Rio & Jax almost falling in - they couldn't resist!

All the Morris ladies: Me (huge and pregnant), Grandma (Bonnie), Erin, Kisty & Kristin - so lucky to have all of you in my life!

We found the hill for the perfect spot to eat lunch and fortunately enough we had entertainment while eating!  The kids couldn't take their eyes off of the dancers

I love when Jax dances - he is hilarious!  Head tilt and arms waving!

Rio of course got into it as well - she and cousin Brinlee in the brown shirt just below her were jumping and jumping and as you can see made their way down to the stage inch by little inch.  Yes, Jax actually made it onto the stage before Spence quickly grabbed him :)

We also found the fish pond and grandma and daddy helped the kiddos feed those huge fish!  What a fun day!  I don't think it could have been any better!

Had to add this pic - these were my favorite flowers of the day!  Beautiful!!!
