Yes, I know they have come and gone in our great state, but I did have Reese's first spring in the bluebonnets documented. I mean what would life be like in Texas, without photos like these? I would be a horrible mother if I didn't get some. And for those of you out-of-staters, the bluebonnet is Texas' state flower and every spring you see the sides of the highway littered with people taking pictures in them. I'm proud to say that these are NOT on the side of the highway.
There was this great deal through Alicia Cargile Photography that I just couldn't pass up. She was offering the sitting fee for $20 for bluebonnet shots and all of the proceeds went to the Brenham State School. Hello!?, even if there was only 1 good shot, it would have been worth it. Now the bad thing is, there really isn't a bad shot and we have to make some decisions.

Reese was only 2 months when these were taken, so sitting up in the bluebonnets on her own wasn't going to happen, so I had the bright idea to use this antique red rocking chair. It was my grandmother's dad's and I think it really turned out to be a great prop!
These are a few of my faves.

I can't say it enough- Reese is too cute!
What a wonderful tradition. Not sure if we have bluebonnets in PA, but my mom STILL likes to take a photo of me next to our holly bush every year on my bday. Lets hope Reese isn't trying to sit in this little red rocker in 26 years :)
