An Autumn Day Around Our Home: Photography & Words
I decided to share some photography I took over the weekend. Autumn is my favorite time of year. With the weather getting cooler, time to layer clothes, pull out sweaters. Crisp mornings, warm afternoons & cool nights. Although, well into October we still have plenty of warmer days. Autumn does this dance with the winds of change. Today I am sharing just some of the reasons I love fall, in photography & in words.
Harvest: My neighbor gave us a big bag of apples, of course I had to bake something. I promise to share the recipe soon. I even managed to make a small batch of apple jam. Don’t you just love the smell of apples cooking?
Morning Coffee: Mornings usually start with coffee in our house. Sometimes the Mr. makes it if he’s up before me. I forgive the bits of coffee grinds left on the counter for me to clean up & enjoy not having to brew the coffee just to wait for that first cup on a brisk morning. I love how our kitchen glows from the morning light.
Fall Clothing: We love layers, sweaters, scarves. Sammie loves hats, changing the ones she wears like the leaves changing colors on the trees. This is her morning look, just up for the day. Sammie says, “Really you need my photograph now?” But, I did she is changing too, what’s not to love about documenting changes.
Natures Shift & Personal Shift: I am always in awe of natures dance. Leave colors changing, the colors & beauty. Autumn has always been a season of change for me personally. Three quarters the way through our year there is still have time to make changes & reach goals.
Enjoying the heart of the home: Cooking, baking the smells of autumn foods cooking in the kitchen. All of these things make me love fall!
Color Inspiration: I reach out to autumn with her changing colors seeking every awe inspiring change. I can’t wait for the colors to flourish, capturing the moments with a snap of my camera.
