Texas Bluebonnets!!!!

In Texas, it just isn't spring until the bluebonnets are out. They line the roadways throughout the state, and I can hardly keep my eyes on the road if there are any around. I really think they are one of the most beautiful flowers God ever created......there's just nothing like the rolling hills of green sprinkled with their radiant blue to warm the soul and make you thankful for God's creation.......but maybe that's the Texan in me talking.

I remember as a kid going with my brother to get our pictures done in the bluebonnets every year, and Mom would dress us up in our Sunday best. She must have been a supermom, because we did our pictures today right after school in our play clothes, behind the local McDonald's, and Alyssa even had dirt in her hair from the playground! But, we still got good pictures, and I think they capture the kids' personalities............the good, the bad, and the beautiful! Anyway, hope you enjoy the bluebonnets.........after all, they are a Texas tradition!
