Bluebonnets


In Texas, this time of year, the Bluebonnets are everywhere. If you've never seen this state flower up close, it is beautiful. It's almost as if the flower has a purple hue to it. Now that the kids are older, it's sort of hard to make them sit in a field of them and have their picture taken...so Oscar, our dog, took their place. Enjoy!


(here he was hopping around like a bunny)


My camera does no justice in the true deep velvet color of these flowers.

WOW! These bluebonnets are BEAUTIFUL! Do you know that I have not seen bluebonnets at all where I am. It's almost worth a trip to come where you are to take some photos of my girls in these.

What part of Texas do you live again?LOL!

Have a fabulous week!
