November Joy

Our gray and soggy skies today made for a beautiful display of fall color! The grayness was the perfect background for the foliage extraordinaire and seemed to brighten and enhance the already vivid colors. All was aglow...

Of course...when skies are blue, the pops of warmth add an extra layer of beauty to what are already breathtaking days. God really was thinking when he came up with this glorious range of warm colors to help ease us into fall and make the foray into winter so very pleasant.


Side note: I bet you didn't know that our nephews happen to be a monkey and a giraffe!!


Happy November everyone...and may you thoroughly enjoy the special kind of "sprinkles" this beautiful month has to offer!

There are so many beautiful things to enjoy. The other day I opened a jug of apple cider, and had to smile while breathing in its gorgeous aroma.
Happy Autumn to you too!

Deb...A big fall hug to you! Your comment made *me* smile! Our little monkey and giraffe couldn't have been cuter...I kept wanting to squeeze them, they were like big stuffed animals. My goal is that you miss home so much you'll have to come and visit...and then we could meet! Sinister I know...sorry. ;)

Pam...I know! It's so amazing!! See what all that positiveness can do (and your sunny flower picture! xo
