Amazing Dahlias
/
I picked up these gorgeous, amazing dahlias at my farmers market yesterday afternoon for four dollars. I really couldn't believe the price. I'm in awe of them. Look how they transform from those closed buds to those giant blossoms! I love the middle stage so that's where I focused for this shot. It reminds me of when you get a glimpse of your child and you can imagine what they will look like as an adult. That happened to me recently with the Noodle.
Tomorrow is our annual all-school cleanup in preparation for the new school year. Yes, back to school happens on Tuesday! We are both very excited and for different reasons. I kind of can't believe I have a second grader...
