Happy happy happy longest day of the year to you and yours! Happy first day of Summer!
Here are the photos of the sunflowers I was talking about in the post below this. Back in January I had told my mom it would be cool to plant a ton of sunflowers to use as a background for photos. I planted one of the seed packages but the I got busy and never got around to planting the rest of them. My mom saw how busy I was and took over planting them for me. She was getting concerned that they were never going to bloom and it did seem like it was taking longer than it should. The seed package made it sound like they would be blooming in early May and when they didn’t, I kind of figured it just wasn’t going to happen. But finally they did start blooming in the last few weeks, first the mammoth flowers that are buttercup yellow, super tall, with faces the size of a dinner plate and look exactly as you expect sunflowers to look. And then in the last week or so, the unusual ones have started blooming. These ones are a delight because I have never seen sunflowers like them before. See, Mom? They are blooming awesomely and I really hope you get to see them soon! :)
