Texas Bluebonnets

The Texas State Flower: Bluebonnet

... found in fields and along roadsides throughout central and south Texas.

While visiting with the grandkids this past week, we went to our son-in-law's, twin brother's in-law's house for a cookout for their birthday. (try saying that one 3 times fast)
The in-laws built the log house seen in the background. It is gorgeous!! And the bluebonnets are everywhere.

The grandkids weren't too sure about getting in the flowers for pictures. And when we said sit down, they balked! The didn't mind sitting on your lap or standing in them but "horrors!" not sitting in them. It's just as well... I came out of there with a few bug bites!

Wee Tiny Sock Swap

The Wee Tiny Sock Swap is finished. Of course I didn't think to take a picture of the sock I made for my partner!

But, I did take a picture of the one I received. It is in my favorite color!! And the card it came in, is so cute. Thank you Frieda!

Last year was the first time I participated in the Wee Tiny Sock Swap so of course I did it this year. It is such fun, doesn't take much time and you get to meet (via email) other sock addicts.

Thank you Emily for hosting an enjoyable swap!

Fun with the grandkids

The grandkids came for a visit and of course we took them to the park for some fun.


When they wanted to ride the teeter toter, mommy and gramma helped!


Even grandpa got into the swing of it...


He was having fun making faces while I was trying to get a nice picture...


and
She was wore out ...


We had a nice visit and we'll get to see them again next weekend!
