DECKED OUT FOR CHRISTMAS!

We have had the most awesome November that I can remember! The sun has been shining bright and the temperatures have been unbelievable. Which has made putting the xmas decorations up on the new house a real pleasure. Seriously, it has been t-shirt weather as long as the sun is out.

Chris has done the best part of the work ofcourse..as I deligate and decide details lol. We are pretty happy with the results. What do u think?

BEAUTY OF AUTUMN

My fav, used as desktop,

I love this time of year, the cool after a humid summer the change in landscape, the rich blank of colours. This from a woman who is colour blind lol...I may not see the same as others but I do see colour nonetheless.
I love trees when they have lost all their leaves...the detail of all those individual branches at times looking fragile, yet part of a bigger whole that is so strong. The Silhouette of such a tree against the backdrop of a beautiful sky is one of my favorite things. Chris and I took a short walk this week, near the river close to home...there was a field with thousands of Canadian Geese resting during their mygration. The sky was so full of colour and the trees were beautiful. I so wish I had my camera for a better quality photo but I took a cpl pics with Chris' phone...this one was my favorite. I even put it up as my pc desktop image lol.
