The Thankful Season


Crisp Air + Fading Blooms = Autumn Joy :)
It truly is the "Thankful" Season.

Blessings,

  1. What a beauty you have! Winter came to us long ago, the snow knee-deep ... and -20 ° C

  2. Lovely blooms. Beautiful words.
    We don't have 4 seasons here and we've been flooded for many weeks now. All we see is floodwater everywhere so it's good to see beautiful sights even virtually.
    I enjoyed my visit. Thanks!

  6. You're right- I love the first and last blooms the best I think! Hope you have a wonderful day. If you haven't popped over to sign up for yesterday's baby guessing contest-give it a try if you have a moment. xo Diana

  8. Yes, mine look about like this. I almost had hubby clip them when he cleaned the yard last week, but you're right, they still have that 'slightly worn' autumn look and color and we don't have very much left. I hope you have a good week,
    Debbie

  10. I still have a few flowers blooming their little hearts out even here in the mid-west. I know it's only a matter of time before a freeze gets them, but for now I think they're the prettiest flowers yet! Great post.

  14. I think you have to live in the right climate to really understand this feeling. In California, flowers bloom all year long, so I'm not sure we appreciate them as much.

    When we lived in Chicago for three years, I really got it!

  18. They're really pretty! Love the colors. They would look pretty cut in a vase on the table for Thanksgiving! Enjoy your day.

  19. Pretty colors! I still have blooms and still have the heat. It's in the 80's here in Orlando. I would really like some cooler weather here. :)

  25. Like the song says, You don't know what you got till it's gone.... Being thankful is so basic. Beautiful is only temporary like a short lived flower. JB

  27. This is actually our blooming season since most plants can't handle the scorching heat we have most of the year; though they are predicting a very cold January. Only time will tell. Hope you are having a wonderful week. Tammy
