While we have lush green grass, roses, birds of paradise and flowers all in bloom, it appears we have a tree just outside our bedroom that has started shedding its leaves.

With a quick slide of the sliding glass doors, I walked out to see it dressed in the prettiest yellow.

The view from our bedroom – What a colorful canopy.

And one last look to see where all the fuss is coming from.

On the inside (for whatever reason) I’m experiencing a little bit of trouble with my plants.  I killed the last ivy.  No matter how much I made sure it had plenty of water, it just didn’t make it.

So I replaced it with this nice hearty plant.  I do plan to give it regular visits with the sunlight.  I’m thinking that’s the problem as I did not do anything other than water the last plant that filled this space.

In case you can’t tell, I really go for plants that like to sprawl all over.  Makes me happy.

So today yields a changing of the season.  On the outside we have a mix of flowering bushes with a few leaves falling.  I’m optimistic with sunny skies and a big chance for blue skies all day.

On the inside, I’m a busy little bee preparing for a little Christmas party at the homestead Saturday evening.
