The Fall Season |
Fall is my favorite season. The colors, the cooler weather the smell of the air is so refreshing. Some say that fall makes them sad because everything is dying but I do not see it that way. I see it as everything needs a rest to regroup and come back ready to face the world again. It is a time of new smells, cool air, leaves changing, falling to the ground and childrens laughter as they play in those fallen treasures.This year you did not have to take a trip to the high mountain to see the beauty of the colors. All you had to do was look around you. It was breath taking to see the vivid reds, the banana colored yellows, the fruit colored oranges. That just names a few. To see those colors is to be reminded that God is still in control and has only the best in mind for us. We like those leaves need to change...we need to look more to God for guidence and wisdom.
Fall is a time to look and know that even though we were once dead in our sins Jesus died on the cross assure us of endless life in him. We must die daily to his will and ask him for his Grace and Mercy. Let all of us look to the seasons and praise God for everyone that he has given us. I thank him for the beauty of this world in any season but fall is my favorite.

On Friday night we went out to eat with the three girls and families. This is Meredith and Holden. The two imps of the family. You can tell that Papa is feeling the effects of their evening celebrating. I am very thankful for every birthday he has since we came so close to losing him several times in the last year. I am thankful for everyday that God has given us and the ones to come, or better yet the years to come. After a heart attack it is very important to follow all of your doctors orders. We have gotten a little off but we are trying to get back on track.
Heather made him a John Deere tractor cake, with a little one for him to have all to himself. He had no problem digging in and was not at all worried about getting his hands dirty like his older brother did at one.
