Pink Saturday October 18th

Fall Flowers...who would have thought I would have found pink on the side of the road? On the way home from the pumpkin farm (see previous post) Kyle and I drove past a strip of cosmos growing on the side of a service road. I drove right past it, and heard a voice from the backseat say, "Can we stop and pick some flowers for Nannie?"
Ummmm, I'm thinking, u-turn, go back to the flowers, starting to rain ....."are you sure buddy?"
"Yeah, Nannie would like the pink ones"
How could I say no? So turn around, find service road, pull over so we are safe and look how pretty!
Kyle was hamming it up for the camera so I did not get any shots of just the flowers, but it was a fun spontaneous little outing!!

Enjoy and head over to "How Sweet the Sound" for all the other ladies having fun with pink today!

PS Nannie did LOVE the pink ones! And I got a great bunch too!

Jennie ~ I will take a field of pink cosmos (or any color cosmos for that matter) over a fancy-shmancy bouquet of roses any day. Their faces are just so happy and open. Your photos are terrific!
