The world's WORST bluebonnet pictures...

Since the Bluebonnets were so abundant this year I thought getting pictures would be so easy! Well...I was wrong.

It all started on a warm sunny day with a ridiculous hike across a field. The grass around the edges of the field was about two feet high! Caden couldn't even walk through it without falling down every other step. Every time he fell down I was overcome with fear that a snake would be down there just waiting to get him! So I picked him up... the boy on one hip... the girl on the other and a camera around my neck and trudged through the field. That field... by the way... smelled as though a million cats had converged upon it and all peed at the same time! We were not off to a good start.

One of the first pictures... our bad start just kept getting worse.

I asked the boy to smile and to make his sister smile...
his solution to my request involved some tough "love"!

For some reason he thought squeezing the fire out of her arm would make her smile!
He has a lot to learn about girls!

Yep, this one was a good one... the old hand in the face shot.

The fake smile.

Not sure what this is.

Yep...

The allergies have kicked in. Sneezing fit begins.

Oh, wait... what was that?

And here I have totally lost all hope of getting anything decent!

The End.

Take a cute picture at home and photo shop them in to a field of bluebonnets! Although, these are still pretty dang cute. :)

Cute! I actually think u got some good pics. The one with them looking back over their shoulder is good. The more kids in the pics...the harder it is to get a good one...but the good ones are priceless and cherished forever!!!
