The Post Where I Show You Too Many Photos of Leaves

I love fall.  It's my favorite season.

I'm always excited about being released from my coat in the spring after a long winter, but there is something comforting about putting on long sleeves and a jacket again when summer is over.

I like the quality of the light in the fall, and snuggling up with my kids under a blanket on movie night.  I don't even mind raking.  (Which is good because there's been a lot of raking.)

And wow has this year been amazing for beautiful trees.  The last of them are finally fading here in Milwaukee, and I just feel like sharing way too many pictures of some of the ones around our neighborhood.

My kids call these 'fire trees'

















That's it.  (Now it's time to make like a tree and get out of here.)

  1. Although I love, love, love my palm trees, I've got to admit that I miss the beautiful colors of the changing leaves (and maybe even the chill in the air). Thanks for sharing!

  3. These are beautiful! I wonder why ours are not so bright here in the UK...I guess something to do with not having such hot summers? I still love autumn though
