Seasons are a changin'

Well, apparently temperatures drop pretty quickly here. It's like fall during the day and winter at night. David has had to start wearing his winter pajamas to bed in order to be able to sleep through the night without waking up cold. As you can see from the picture he is really fast! His new thing is to look at the screen on the camera any time a picture is being taken. The problem is that we are usually trying to take a picture of him. Anyway, here he is already for bed in nice warm jammies.

While we were walking this week I decided to take some pictures and see if I could take a really good picture. Well I am proud to say that I think I 2 pretty good ones. The first is of some of our changing leaves. Of all the fall colors I love the reds the best. The second picture is one of those yellow ones (I don't even know what kind they are). I like the way that the petals droop down instead of up.
I was so proud of my pictures I showed them to Dustin. Since Dustin is taking a photography class this semester I asked him if I would get a good grade on these two pictures. He told me I would get a good grade only if I could talk about them in art terms. As you can tell my art terms are excellent!

I must say that fall is my favorite season of all of them. The reds, oranges, golds, and browns are just stunning. That is probaly why the colors in our house are those colors. Fall has a much different smell, it's so earthy and calming. It makes me want to curl up on the couch with a mug of hot cider or hot chocolate and read a book. I also enjoy walking around in fall weather because I can wear a pair of pants and t-shirt and just a light jacket and be perfectly content.
