Fall Colors and a pup...

I have been taking pictures throughout the week of all the color changes.

 Most of the maple reds are done, 

a lot of the oak trees have been turning as well.

 These are my favorite colors and 

I've been designing a quilt to help me capture it.

 Zach thought he was pretty clever taking this one-

like how the arrow is pointing at this tree?:)

 This is the place I got my deer last year.

 My favorite trees...Quaking Aspen.

Doesn't get any better than this.

 Up on the ridge with the corn...love it.

 Here is a picture of our house and the trees behind it.

I thought it would be even better to take one more hike up the bluff to get some 

better fall color pictures.

Joey and I got to go on a little hike all by ourselves.

 It was worth the extra work...I can honestly say this is the best I've seen it.

 It was just as beautiful to have some one-on-one time with Joey.

She's turning into quite the little lady.

 We walked to another spot to get a couple more angles.

 These are the pictures that I will be looking at when I start on that quilt.

 God's masterpiece!

 Then we hiked down to the cave.  

Luckily, there was no occupants yet!

 We got down just fine and 

had to do a bit of the obstacle course around the property before we went in.

 Then we presented Oscar with his birthday present...

a great addition to our family.

Meet Dixie.  She is cuter than cute 

and already so loved.  

We are so happy and blessed to give her a good home.
