It is such a beautiful and un-self-conscious shot of the two of them together.

And LF, ...Megan your comment just made my night :)<br /><br />And LF, that story cracked me up. I can just picture a 17-year-old Landon and a 15-year-old Biscuit trudging out to the bluebonnet fields for a family picture :) And I know what you mean about picturing your family in your head a certain way - mine is how everyone looked when I went to college too, especially for my parents.LLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04431706155081017734noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3552008288188142238.post-67751555363594688492011-04-11T19:39:04.808-05:002011-04-11T19:39:04.808-05:00This is awesome.

I make his read some of your posts, and it has become a thing for one of us to say to the other, "A beautiful butterfly," and the other must respond with a super-happy face. I think "I am fraught" might become one of our phrases. You have a talent capturing these moments with your camera, then captioning them accordingly.Megannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3552008288188142238.post-16755960502839935472011-04-11T15:10:46.908-05:002011-04-11T15:10:46.908-05:00omg the last one is perfect. You'd never know ...omg the last one is perfect. You'd never know it was cropped. And in case anyone doesn't believe you - I can 100% vouch for this native Texan tradition. <br /><br />Except for some reason my mom NEVER got pics of my brother and I in the bluebonnets. EVERY year she said she was going to but for some reason something always came up and it never happened. By my senior year of college she said that I WAS NOT going to go to college, ESPECIALLY outside of the state of Texas, without having pictures taken with my brother in the bluebonnets.<br /><br />So 17 year old me and 15 year old brother went and had pics in the bluebonnets. THANK GOD we found a field of them instead of having to go on the side of the highway. How embarrassing. We also had family pics done - It's one of my favorite family pictures of us though. The last one before I went to college and put on 25 lbs and the last one we took before my mom got cancer (her hair hasn't looked the same since then!), and my dad had a LOT less gray 8 years ago. So it's kind of what I always picture the family looking like in my head, except that my brother looks so young.Halliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00213593870039027367noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3552008288188142238.post-91378112136486558712011-04-11T12:02:19.632-05:002011-04-11T12:02:19.632-05:00These crack me up :) You definitely have to save t...These crack me up :) You definitely have to save them & the commentary for when they're grown up!Amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13397176667036107115noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3552008288188142238.post-88672664742321113742011-04-11T11:46:04.903-05:002011-04-11T11:46:04.903-05:00Good 'nuff!Good 'nuff!Carriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05748570926057527286noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3552008288188142238.post-49618583909110464372011-04-11T09:15:12.850-05:002011-04-11T09:15:12.850-05:00Commentary is priceless.

Tons o' people, lots o' cranky kids who have been in the car all that time. There's also a ranunculus (sp?) field, right near Legoland. TOO CLOSE to Legoland. Absolutely gorgeous though.<br /><br />My absolute favorite picture, and the one I would want to frame, is the fifth one. The halos around each child are perfect, they aren't just cheesing for the camera-- it's a real keeper. (Um, and if you don't want it, I want to scrap it as a "teaching" page!)<br /><br />`Lisa Mnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3552008288188142238.post-29660607581980681392011-04-10T15:47:15.627-05:002011-04-10T15:47:15.627-05:00Hilarious :)Hilarious :)Kristin {Sea Cow Circus}https://www.blogger.com/profile/02931082676855578467noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3552008288188142238.post-44432442278351559722011-04-10T14:30:09.400-05:002011-04-10T14:30:09.400-05:00"I am fraught." hahaha!
