Bluebonnets 2012

March 22, 2012 Ticia 13 Comments

The Texas rite of passage every spring is to take pictures in the bluebonnets.  This year, thanks to a miracle from God, and the random rains we’ve gotten, bluebonnets are in fairly good shape.
Since I took A LOT of pictures in a short time, I opted to do a quick collage with Picassa, really loving that.

First up is Superman, both the boys wanted to show off their fighting poses.

Next is Batman, who was really proud of his fighting poses

Princess did her cute pose for her bluebonnets pictures.

And finally some group pictures of us. Since I’m taking the pictures, I don’t have any group pictures.

Sigh, bluebonnets make me so happy.  I want to go and get one more round and get a shot of me with just each boy  Oh and a better one of me with the kiddos.  This was an unplanned photoshoot, so none of us were really dressed well for the pictures.

    It made me smile that your boys felt that the bluebonnets provided the perfect backdrop to strike a fighting pose.

    What a lovely tradition to take photos of all of your family in this stunning spring setting.
