I love Coastal Living magazine.
I obviously don't live on the coast, have a coastal cottage, or even get to the seaside as much as i'd love to. However, I really enjoy perusing this magazine & think you will too.
So, leave me a comment with your guess of how many beach pictures I took last week ( I know, no one really cares but thought this would be fun). The one closest to the total I will gladly send a years subscription.
Sunday we headed about an hour east to a 15 acre sunflower farm. We stumbled upon this a few years ago prior to a feature that Southern Living ran about their July festival. With a couple years of drought plus the added crowds, there aren't quite as many flowers available as in years past, but gorgeous none the less.
Dan described this day as the perfect storm. If it could go wrong, it did.
But we walked away with our huge bucket of flowers , muddy feet, and loads of smiles to end what started out as a rocky day. My sweet guy always knows how to make things all better for his type-A ( & that day, very grumpy) wife. I am so blessed to have this gentle, even-tempered and endlessly loyal man to help me through days when I feel like I've failed as a mom or failed as a friend.
I love you big guy~~thank you for being the calm in my storm and the safe place to lay my head everynight. I wouldn't want to walk through georgia red clay with anyone else but you~

Thanx for the info about Restoration Hardware on 'Humble Pie's' blog. Just ordered $150 worth of "shore" cleaning products:). I love your site, especially your beautiful family pix. I'm trying to convince my husband to abandon our bankrupt state and move to either Washington or Georgia!!!

I always love your pictures!! and the sunflowers are amazing!!!
Just a little fyi about Coastal Living...I started receiving it when Country Home went away :( but I still enjoy it. Over the 4th I made the "grilled shrimp tacos, jicama slaw, and corn salsa" and ALL were amazing. It had nothing to do with the cook it had everything to do with the recipes. Super quick, easy, yummy, and light for a summer dinner party. I'd highly recommend them! They are in the current Coastal Living.
Enjoy! and Welcome Back!! we missed you!!
I am going to guess 2600. Hope I am close and by the way you take beautiful pictures.
Dawn
Oh girl you are too funny. I too am a picture taking fool. My guess is 400! Love all the sunflower photos. You are a really good photographer, and your family is gorgeous of course.
I'm still on vacation, but I had to check in. Can't wait to see if I was remotely close.
I'm guessing 287. You certainly have wonderful photo's!
Okay, so I just got here..., and your saying that you don't get to the beach that much, hmmmm but everyone's guesses are in the hundreds! I'd say a hundred then. The sunflowers are stunning!
Paige, the girls are looking so grown up! Growing up happens doesnt it? But it is so bittersweet! They are just beautiful and so are you and your husband! Love those sunflowers and that Georgia red clay!
annie
