Tulipfest Part One----the portraits

Next weekend is the beginning of Tulipfest here in Holland. We decided to take advantage of the fact that the rainclouds were not pouring rain like they had threatened, and headed to a local park to get some snapshots.
I ts things like this that will really make Holland hard to leave. It is beautiful here this time of year especially, and I normally really dislike spring. We can't wait to go to the actual festival and get some pictures of all that fun stuff. For now, here are a few glimpses of what it really looks like here.
