Bluebonnets

A visit to Texas in the Spring is not complete without a visit to a bluebonnet patch! Today we drove out to Independence because the park at the Old Baylor College for Women is always in full blue bloom by this time of year, and it's a quick drive from Houston. It was a perfect day, minus the wind, with lots of fluffy clouds and tons of bluebonnets for us to enjoy. We carefully stepped our way through the various large sections of blue and made sure to only sit where others had previously crushed the flowers so we weren't causing more damage, you know, in case YOU want to enjoy them too!!! Jacob was thoroughly impressed with his first Texas Wildflower Experience, enough so that we can probably coerce him back for future Spring visits! Enjoy the photos!

A butterfly landed right next to where I was kneeling. Perfect, Lord!

Two years ago I put my Aggie Ring on a bluebonnet; this year it was the wedding rings' turn!

Jacob enjoy God's lovely gardening skills.

Bailey Boy was in his element today. Isn't he precious?!? PERFECT child!

Tire swings are always irresistible. :)
