a visit to the flower fields.

My parents were in town this past weekend. On Sunday, we drove up to Carlsbad to see the flower fields. For some reason I thought we'd be looking at tulips. I was thrilled to find ranunculus instead. We were a bit early in the season and only one field had pretty blooms peeking through. I am hoping to go back with Paul in the next few weeks to see all the fields awash with color. In the meantime though, here is what was growing at our early visit.

That last one is my favorite. I think orange is going to be my favorite color for the rest of my life. It's because of the wedding, I'm sure.
