I Love Fall

 Last year during the peak color season, we were out East where fall and color go together like white on rice. :)  This year we are in the West, and while I have missed the turning of the maples, sumac, and oak, we do see many beautiful aspen trees scattered about within the hugely popular evergreen family.

I was visiting a local grocery store and was taken by these beautiful colors.  God has done some great stuff to create beauty. 


I thought the brussel sprouts looked so funky - to anyone who has not harvested them from an  actual garden, it is hard to believe those small frozen cabbages in the box looked like this when they were in the garden!

How our Heavenly Father is mindful of us!  The colors of fall, the color of grocery store produce, the texture of a pumpkin, the shape of a pepper - and the beauty he gives us each fall.  When living in Minnesota, I always thought God was just giving us a bit of color to remember before the frozen White season of winter. Nope, I do not miss winter even a little bit.





And here are a few colors of fall with great beauty - the MacDuff family, who we met in Kennewick, Washington, shared some of their colorful canned goods with us. Thank you.
