There is a pasture in Hampton near where Jacob keeps some of his bees that is filled with flowers in the spring. Jacob passes it frequently and had mentioned going for pictures several times. This out of the way place, complete with pecan trees, a small vineyard, large woodpiles, and an old barn and tractor, is actually quite popular for picture taking around here and cars lined the road with people making the most of the photo op. We went a little late in the season so there weren’t as many flowers, but it was still pretty and our boys love any reason to be outside.
Taking boys to play in flowers is not quite the delightful experience as I imagine it would be with girls since Josiah sweats profusely and pulled the flowers out by the handful! Many of these first few pictures are grainy as I took them with our cheap camera and then cropped them from much larger originals, but the content is sweet.
Josiah enjoyed repetitively pulling the petals off the flowers, placing them on Elijah’s head, then blowing them off.
Happy Spring!
