As I mentioned in yesterday’s post, we took a trip to the Keukenhof during a nice weekend while KC’s mom was visiting. Despite the fact that mid-April is supposed to be the optimal time for seeing the flowers, I think we would have actually had a much better show had we waited another week or two to visit.The flowers were still beautiful and we had sunny weather — so really, it was a great day.    When in doubt, feed them snacks, right? If these girls could solely eat snacks everyday their lives would be made. I mean, who needs lunch when you can just have 14 small servings of crackers, pretzels and Babybel cheese, right?Some of the varieties of tulips were just amazing. And they plant them so close together that there’s often 500 or more tulips in a 5×5 foot space. So crazy. We went into one of the greenhouses to eat lunch and learned that there were over 100,000 flowers in the greenhouse alone!  Prim has been talking about the Keukenhof since we visited a couple weeks ago, so I guess it’s safe to say that she had a good time. Most days she asks me at least once, “You remember when we went to the Keukenhof?” and I’m like, “I sure do!” Haha, it’s so funny to see all the little things and experiences that really stick with her. We attempted to get some family photos while visiting and the shots below were about as successful as we got. Getting a one year old and an almost three year old to look at the camera and not be screaming, annoyed, or turning into a limp noodle is asking a lot, so I’ll just take what I can get. I wish we could have gone back again after the fields of tulips were really in bloom, but what we were able to see was pretty spectacular. If you’re visiting Amsterdam anytime in April through mid-May, I would definitely recommend a trip (especially if you’re looking to get some quintessential Dutch tulip shots!)
