Tulip Time - Covid version

2020 has been a crazy year...let's keep adding to the list, Tulip Time was canceled this year due to Covid. First time since WWII that there wasn't a parade, food stands and general celebration in Pella. But do you know what didn't get the Covid memo...the tulips! Those babies still bloom in the midst of a global pandemic, so we loaded up our scooters and headed to Pella for a tulip tour!
The tulip beds were full of beautiful tulips!
This was my favorite!
B really liked the all red ones
Our little dutch girl
Garrett picked these orange to pink flowers as his favorite
After some intense scootering, the kids and I relaxed on the grass while mom stood in line at the bakery!
Purple and Gold tulips...maybe for Johnston Dragons...
Dutch windmill!
The canal was empty...so the kids jumped in!
Me and my dutch girl, Heather is 100% dutch and grew up in Pella, Tulip Time is a highlight of our spring every year
My dutch girls!
Too cute!
We had #DutchFix for supper, they have a lot of good options and it was as close as we could get to the food stands normally set up at TT 
Trigg and I (and a great photobomb!)
Who loves Tulip Time?
We grabbed our #DutchFix and headed over to Grandma Great's for supper!
 We had a great time in Pella, not the same as the "normal" Tulip Time but it was still pretty good. Although we do love watching Mom in her dutch costume walk in the parade...maybe next year!
