Love Austin: wildflowers

I love Austin always. But especially in the Spring, when the wildflowers are in full bloom. Kate captured a little of the beauty upon seeing a field just around the corner from her parent’s house …

This field always catches my eye.

Indian Blanket field

Especially around this time of year.

Indian Blankets cover this field.

My sister and I try to stop at this field when the Indian Blankets bloom because they just happen to be my mom’s favorite flowers … and they just happen to bloom right around her birthday.

In a glass jar, the perfect gift.
