If you’re from central Texas, like me, then you know good and well what a Bluebonnet is.  If not, I’m sorry.

😀

On our way through my home state last Thursday, I was anxious to find a spot where the kids and I could stop and take a few pictures in a field full of the state flower.

I happened to spy a place right before we got to lunch and it was a little bright since we stopped right around noon.  The kids ONLY got out of the car because I promised them a DQ (Dairy Queen) ice cream if they would comply.

And even then…

Wow, I just can’t pic a favorite… Ahem.

But no worries!  They still got their ice cream.

They did loosen up a bit but I had a hard time catching up with Little G since he was off chasing butterflies most of the time.

The smell of them alone was enough to welcome me home…

God Bless Texas!
