Out along a country road someone plants sunflowers. They crowd each other between the corn fields and the road. They go on for almost a mile. Every year I remind myself that I need to stop and take pictures. Every year the frost gets to them before I do.
But this year I was inspired by PJ’s sunflower photo, and the one over on Gerry’s blog. So last weekend Katie and I went out specifically to get some photos. Katie had to stay in the car, but she was OK with that.
I had a great time standing among the sunflowers.
Katie was very patient.
She’s gotten used to this Mama and the camera thing. As long as she gets to ride in the car she’s totally supportive.
Treats are good too.

Sunflowers are my favorite flowers…Cole had a sunshine crown when he was Christened. They are so happy, joyful and easy…
Wonderful pictures…wonder how Katie would look in a sunshine flower crown?

So pretty! They used to plant sunflowers like that along I-71 near Cincinnati and I always loved that stretch of road in the fall!

Sunshine, sunflowers, going for a ride, a great dog–adds up to a perfect day, doesn’t it?

Sunflowers truly are that – a ray of sun that shines for all of us. I keep saying I’m going to plant some “next spring” and then I keep forgetting. That makes it doubly special when someone like you shares their sunshine with someone like me.
