Tulip Time 2013

 Jonas was so happy to have a partner this year to ride the rides, and Freya loved joining him!
 They all can ride this stroller:)

 Jason and I ran the Festival 5K
 The kids were wonderful cheerleaders:)


 and so encouraging after a hot, hard run:)

 The plan is to do it again next year with Grandma!  Woo Hoo!  And Bailey and Micheal, we vote for you to join the Olson team too!


 Gusto was so patient while the other two kiddos rode the rides---he enjoyed watching them, especially when he had something to eat and Grandpa to entertain him:)
 The Scrambler---Jonas was a huge fan---my little thrill-seeker:)

 Free snow cones with the family after a race---my FAVORITE!!

 String cheese in the little house on the porch--they love to be in it all together:)
 How do we look?  I even dressed up this year:)  The kids were excited to get all dressed up and Jonas really got into dumping the water on the streets---and on us:)
 Gusto is always up for a cold drink:)






 The crew at the parade--what a hoot this was---trying to keep everybody reigned in, but we love parades in this family so went to 4 of them and the kids learned what to expect---and the horses were by far the favorite! 



 Lego party #1 for the J-man...those little blocks on top of the cupcakes are harder to make than you would think:)
 Yummy snacks with Daddy after the 5K.
He loves brooms and rakes---this kid will enjoy yard work someday:)  Thank you Grandma and Grandpa for another wonderful Tulip Festival!  We love you!
