More Amsterdam and stuff


Hellooooo!! I am currently sitting at the desk in our Hampton hotel room in Shawnee, Oklahoma. My niece graduated high school last night so we drove in yesterday to attend the ceremony. So hard to believe she's 18 and about to go to college in the fall. The years flew by! My mom is here staying with my brother and she'll fly back to Montana tomorrow.  I'm working half a day today and then driving back to Texas. The drive is just a little over 3 hours. We have to pick up our dogs from doggy daycare as soon as we get back.
Here are some more Amsterdam photos. While there, we took a tour bus to Keukenhof which is in Lisse, Netherlands. This is where the tulips are!! Tulips are only in bloom for a short season so its only open for 60 days. More than 7 million flower bulbs are planted to bloom. As you can imagine , hundreds of busses pour in and over a million visitors come to see the flowers in this time. Its incredible!! Fun fact, when i was 21 i got a tulip tattooed on my toe. They are my favorite flower !!!
Have a great weekend!! Friday is my birthday- yay for being alive another year.  Blogger is also being weird for me today so ignore the random So at the very bottom.  HAHA! Lots of pics today:
