Bluebonnets - Which Picture is Your Favorite?

Choose your favorite blue bonnet photo contest! 


Springtime in Texas means a time-honored tradition - family pictures in the bluebonnet fields. 
Bluebonnets are the Texas State flower and are the most vividly beautiful blue/violet color. 


This year I am having such a hard time deciding which group picture to hang on my wall.
I love, love, love this picture below, but I also adore the candid, out-take style below it - there's just something so endearing about the love in the laughter.



So, help me decide! 
Leave me a comment with which of the two family group photos you like best. 
I'll choose one person to receive a free pattern of choice.

      Holly - I agree...with 3 little boys, rarely is there a "picture perfect" moment, so I've come to appreciate the candid shots. Real life moments!

      I feel like because everyone is looking at the camera

      And, Molly, that is a RARITY for sure! Getting all 5 to look at the camera at once is almost miraculous! ;)

    I like both of them and see why it is such a hard choice. I say the bottom, even though you are not all looking at the camera. It is real, and you all look so happy. I would get the other one in a smaller size and if you had a third you could have the big one in the center.

    I like either the first one or the third one. There's something about posed pictures that creeps me out just a little bit.

    Morning hun .... I honestly love the second picture, it shows the true love of your family! However for your blog I would say the first one is probably better as it shows you off a little more then the second. You truly have a beautiful family!!

    I love the 3rd or 1st, 3rd one you're all interacting together, and the 1st makes me think you're off to do something fun, and they're not the normal smile look at camera <3 great looking family btw
