Day 9 of Thankfulness- Autumn Splendor

Fall is truly one of my favorite times of year.

I love the plethora of colors and the way God's creation outdoes itself each new day.

I watch as my trees' leaves change from deep green to rich reds, oranges, browns and golden yellows.  Our neighborhood is a veritable canvas that changes each day into something more splendid than the day before. It is a reminder that winter is coming.  It is a time for us to slow down, days are shorter, nights are cooler.  The hustle and bustle of summertime outdoors and productivity comes to a halt.

It is a time for reflection of the past year.

It is a time of harvest and celebration.

It is a time of thankfulness and family.

I am so thankful for the beauty I see each day driving on my street and the trees that greet me.
