Freshly Picked

We had to get out of the house one last time as a family of 5... with a farm tour going on in the Key Peninsula... naturally, we had to visit the flower farm. Off to Bees' we went, to meet up with friends, and pick some beautiful dahlias. How could we resist when they were pennies per bloom. We should have picked a bouquet for each room... but ended up with only one for the kitchen counter. I tried to get these babies out with a walk... and even sat on a bumpy hayride, hopeful. But, no luck.  I'm already dreaming up what next summer will look like... something tells me we will be picking some of these gorgeous blooms in our very own garden.
