Delicious Autumn

This gorgeous image came from Lori at All You Have to Give,
who creates the most beautiful Word Pictures.

I am thankful for the changes Autumn brings. This is my absolute favorite time of the year. The brisk mornings and evenings, the abundant harvests, the smell of cinnamon and spice, trips to the apple farm and pumpkin patch, the warmth of a hot cup of tea or pumpkin spice latte, the coziness of sweaters and jeans, the relief from the desert heat!

And my favorite, the changing of the leaves. A sure sign that one season is ending and a new one beginning. It's then I realize the creativity of our Maker and it inspires me to delight in my own creative gifts.

Blessings,


Today Iris was thankful for Change. What are you thankful for? For more words of inspiration visit her at Sting My Heart....

My favorite time of the year is the Autumn/Fall. It's cooling here, the leaves haven't begun to change yet but I know its coming soon. I hope it slows and takes its time before the cold winter gets here.

Fall is my absolute favorite season also. In the deep south where we live, there is not much leaf changing, but the crisp air and scents of fall fill me with joy!
