A Feast for The Eyes

You all know how I feel about autumn. Mmmm...couldn't be a prettier, more energizing time of the year in my opinion. Just had to grab my camera this morning and capture it before all the leaves have fallen and November sets in. Look around you: the trees are changing...
 

...things that once were a huge part of your day (like your favorite chair in the backyard...the one that gives you full view of The Boy playing) get a little less use, but somehow become more beautiful. It's like you're seeing them for the first time when they're left to stand on their own...
 

Matt's summer playhouse: the center of activity in the warmer months. Now, it stands, looking like smoke should be rising out of its chimney (if it had one). 


Love the mini pumpkins, but really now, does it get better than one that's sparkly black?!


And even as the plantings start to wear from the frost and fade away, they never lose their beauty. 




Look at how the sunlight falls on my neighborhood? Enchanting...


I say "Why rake?" When God's confetti pours down, just enjoy it for a bit.
At least until the last leaf has blown off the last tree.


And yes...even Ruby looks more regal in this lighting.


So gather your acorns, pull the crock pot out of your pantry,
and get ready for the cooler months to come. Love it!
