Blue Bonnets and Blue Bell

We live in Texas where the state flower is the blue bonnet.  It is only seen for about a month during the year.  Ever since Lilly was one year old, we have made the drive out to Brenham, TX to see them.  Last year we went too late and weren't able to see the blue bonnets, but we still had a wonderful time.  Along with going to see the beautiful flowers, we have also included a trip to the Blue Bell factory as part of the tradition.  For the past three years, we have enjoyed a tour of the facility and a yummy scoop of ice cream.  It is a wonderful tradition that I hope we will continue as long as we are living in this part of the country.

We were very careful not to sit on, pick, or smoosh any blue bonnets in the making of these pictures.
