This weekend, my mother in law and I went tulip picking with the kids. I have to admit, as soon as the farm said "
dress for mud", I was sold. Mud, fresh air and beautiful flowers, how could I go wrong?! And I was right. It was the perfect place to let the kids run around, get dirty and enjoy themselves. PLUS, I got to go home with pretty flowers!!!
^^ That's her "I'm running away from you mom, whatcha going to do about it?!" look
You had the choice to either clip the flowers or take the whole bulb. Originally, I was just going to take home the flowers, but my mother in law convinced me to take the whole bulb and plant them. So, now I have a flower pot full of tulips on my front porch. And I kind of can't wait until they bloom.
And just to keep it real, Connor had to go the bathroom while we were there. There was one port a pot for
everyone and a line of dudes taking dumps in it. I begged Connor (like seriously begged...numerous times) to just pee on the fence, but he thought the port a pot was super cool and wanted to go in there. After waiting for all the guys to drop their loads, it was Connor's turn. It was about the nastiest port a pot I've seen (
just behind the time I was 6 months pregnant and one was so full it was overflowing, so I went pee next to a fence and a guy came up and started peeing next to me...but that's a story for another time). Connor still insisted on using it. I held the door open and kept insisting he not touch ANYTHING. After he was done, he declared to all around "
It smells like poop in there."
In order to get that nasty port a pot image out of your head, just look at the pretty pictures again.
You're welcome.

ReplyDeleteAnd I am super jealous you got to go to a flower farm. I need to look them up and see if there are any near us. I would love to do that with the kids.
