Costco is an amazing store. You can find the coolest things there. I love the cheap gas we get, and the beautiful fresh produce, but I think my favorite purchase up to date has been a mini tulip garden. It's really quite an awesome invention. They have tulip bulbs in these glass containers and all you have to do is water them and give them sunlight and they grow!
This was so exciting for me that I kinda went crazy with the pictures. You can tell how eventful my life is that I get excited about stuff like this. I think I've taken 5 or 10 pictures of these tulips everyday for the past 3 weeks. I may or may not be obsessed. Since I have nothing better to do, and obviously you don't either, I'm going to show you a couple of the pictures I took. When I first bought the tulips, there were just some leaves showing, but no buds had come up yet, (see the picture of Ryan preparing the egg color stuff in the last post). About a week later the first buds started showing.
Then just the slightest pink coloring started to show on the petals.
After that they just started opening up.
This last one is what they look like today. It has been so much fun to watch them open up. It's amazing how easily I'm entertained. I wish I had something more exciting and worth while to obsess about.
I've recently been thinking a lot about a summer vacation. I really need a break! I guess Ryan probably does too. He's going to be taking classes full time this summer so the only time we could go is in August. I'm trying to decide where we should go. We should probably just go camping somewhere in Utah to save money, but lately I've been dreaming about going somewhere tropical. I really want to go to Hawaii. I've never been before. I'd also really like to go on another cruise. Ryan wants to go to back to Brasil. So many choices... what do you guys think? Any ideas?
