After the cold snap, milder days have returned and the trees have finally turned their fall colors. Our drive home from church today (45 minutes-we get a nice Sunday drive every Sunday!) was gorgeous-the leaves seem to have turned gold, orange and red all at once. Yesterday was dark and rainy, but today the sky is clear and deep blue. The wind is blowing pretty hard, so I'm afraid the leaf show will be over quickly.

We spent last week helping our daughter get her house ready for company. Her in-laws are coming for a visit this week. They are lovely people and we enjoy getting to visit with them. They will all be coming to our house for Thanksgiving dinner as well as our son's family. I'm getting excited! There will be 12 of us for dinner. Tomorrow I'll start my own preparations, but today, I'm going to relax and enjoy the beautiful day! Hope you all have a great week!
