flowers


 The wildflowers are in full bloom this year! They both love picking but Larkin especially gets excited about all the flowers. Her favorite flower is the Indian Paintbrush and she was so disappointed last year when there were hardly because of the drought. All year she's talked about which flowers would be growing and how she just couldn't wait to start picking them.

We headed to the trail near our house and brought some butterfly nets too. We rounded a corner and came upon a field filled with flowers and butterflies.  Willa gasped and said, "Mom, it's a beautiful world today."


Willa excited about catching a butterfly--
"I GOT HIM!!"

The only pic I took of all three in the bluebonnets, but it's pretty good!
 Note to self--check for prickly pear cactus before telling them to sit down! Larkin got a bum-full of prickers!
