Bluebonnets of Texas

The abundant rain we experienced last week brought out the beautiful Texas Bluebonnets. It's my absolute favorite time of year to drive along the freeway headed towards Dallas because they are just everywhere!

The kids found a ton of ladybugs, centipedes, caterpillars to keep them entertained when they weren't being photographed. One caterpillar liked me so much it crawled up my pant leg and came home with me.

We took so many good pictures it was hard to choose which to show you. Here are a few of my favorites:
