Tulip Day

Norah and I headed over to our local out-door mall on Monday.  It is a pretty nice mall, one that has stores in which I will never shop.  I head over there for Sears (best shoes for boys), The Children's Place, and a few random other places a few times a year.  Sometimes Barnes and Noble around December.

I shop resale, so I rarely find myself at a mall!

BUT . . . every year, the week after Mother's Day, is what I call the Tulip Free For All.  They dig up every single tulip planted, and they drop them for people to gather.  For 2-3 days, there are 2 tulip drops each.  One at 9:30 and one at 2:30.  I was busy helping Kindergartners at 9:30.  Eric came home to catch Simon off the bus, and Norah and I headed over to pick up tulips at the 2:30 drop.  

We had a great time, she loved it so much.  We have a bunch of tulips to share, plant, and enjoy next spring!

Now that is a great New To Me Monday!
