pickin' wildflowers

We have plenty of wildflowers here around our house,  and their new favorite thing to do is pick a big handful of them.  

 

 We often have a jar of them sitting on the kitchen table.  We are learning all the different names of the different kinds.  They are also starting to recognize them in other places too.  We just spent a couple days camping down by our bunkhouse and they walked all over looking for different kinds of flowers. 

If I need five more minutes to finish dinner or fold the laundry I send them out and they return all smiles with their hands full of these simple flowers. It really doesn't get much better.
