Heaven on Earth

I just wanted to share about my favorite place.  Here in Kansas our state flower is the sunflower.  5 years ago I was blessed to hear about Grinter Farms.  I had no clue what to expect but when I got there— I was completely in awe of the beauty.  Of course that first year my phone I think I left in the car so didn’t take any pictures but every year since I have and each year I take more and more and they are better quality, ha!

Back in 2015, the night before my first chemo we went to the field.  My husband and I were on our knees and just praying.  We had no idea if this chemo would work.  Doctors didn’t know.  But we left feeling so much Peace and just knew God was there with us.  A year later we celebrated my remission in that field.  My son has been there every year of his life and I tear up just thinking of the emotion that comes over me as I went there this year completely healthy, with a full set of hair and with my two favorite people.

If you are ever in KS in late August, I HIGHLY suggest you come take a look for yourself.  This year we were able to go at sunrise and it was the best time I have ever had.  It was beautiful.  Here are some (Ok many pics of my years through the field but most from this year).

Enjoy!
