When I moved to Texas in 1997 I discovered many interesting and unique traditions that are a part of Lone Star State culture. One of those traditions is taking pictures of your kids or family in a field of bluebonnets in April during the height of the blossoming season. I will say, that driving in Texas in mid-April and seeing an explosion of color on the side of highways is something I greatly enjoy. The bluebonnets can be spectacular.
You always try to avoid stepping on the bluebonnets!
Rather than having to find a different spot each year on the side of an interstate or highway, we have found a park nearby that year in and year out has spectacular bluebonnets. It has been our go-to bluebonnet place for photos the last few years.
