Poppy Photo Dump

Okay no, not all of them are poppy photos.  (6 of 10 are.)  But I've been snapping pictures left and right of my only poppies that bloomed this year, so gear up for some photos ;)
    Poppies on the 5th and the 8th:

Then, probably my favourite flower photo so far this year, a morning glory.  I've planted morning glories before, but they never blossomed.  This is the first one I've had that's blossomed, so I was really happy to see this.  It was especially pretty because it had just rained, so there were still tiny droplets of water all over the petals.
     The other picture is a small bouquet of flowers my sister picked.  I put the vase on the deck to use the boards as a background, but it had started raining a little bit already so the boards were sprinkled with water.  (Both these pictures were taken on the 8th.)

Another poppy photo from the morning of the 9th (the sun was shining right through the petals, which looked super neat), and also a picture of the very odd-looking storm clouds that went over us that evening.  The farther they went, the more they looked like a shelf.

Then, on the evening of the 10th, we had another pretty sunset.

And finally, three poppy pictures I took this morning.  (A lot of them are bending over because Tikka keeps playing down there and running through the flowers.)

Lovely pictures, Leah! The poppies and the bachelor buttons are another reminder of my childhood. You saw them in many gardens. I love the cloud picture and the sunset! It’s so nice to see you enjoying God’s creations!

I love poppies! It is so funny how Tikka keeps jumping at Dragon, Running through your only poppies, hiding (Squeezing) under the shed, and jumping down the retaining wall. She's got a big little tummy. I wouldent call her fat, but she is quite plump and pudgy.
