Snakes and Tulips all in one day

Who would have known that on the way out to see beautiful fields of Tulips, you can stop in at the Reptile Museum and hold some snakes? Well, the Calderwoods knew, so that is just what we did.

It was a pretty cool place with lots of different reptiles. They had a two headed turtle, albino crocodile, and tons of gigantic snakes.
Beckham stuck with the turtles while his sister wrangled the snakes!
He thought this one was pretty cool with his pig nose. It was OLD!!!
Madison got pretty into this. I think at one point Carson even called her his little Brittney Spears. She had that thing wrapped all over her.
After a photo shoot by the cool red barn and a picnic lunch in the back of the SUV's it was on to the Tulip Festival. I got a little picture happy but who wouldn't? It was beautiful! This random old bus was sitting out in one of the fields. I liked it.

The flowers are gorgeous! I wish I could have been there. I remember every time we went to the zoo we always had to go to the reptile house. Now I know why, like father like daughter;)

When did you hit the tulip festival? We have missed it every year and I thought we were too late again this year. Great job with the pictures, too!

Fun, beautiful pics! You are doing a great job with your new camera.

We have yet to go to the tulip festival and I have wanted to every year. We also have a free admission ticket to that Reptile place and so we should get there also...my kids would love it!
