Good afternoon! What a beautiful fall day here in northern Michigan. After a day of rain, the sun is out again and it is beautiful. The trees are starting to change color and there is a fresh crispness in the air. Even though saying good-bye to summer is hard, Fall is a favorite time of year for me. I love all the colors, smells, sweaters, hot chocolate, cozyness, and warm family memories that come with it!
I just recently celebrated my birthday, and I want to share with you my special surprise. I came home to beautiful flowers on my table and dinner in the oven! My husband, Karl, rushed home from work to prepare it all perfectly for me.
Aren't they beautiful? He said he picked them because they looked like "fall" flowers to him. He was right, Chrysanthemums are the flower of fall!
Look how bright and vibrant the colors are! I love the red and yellow contrast.
He did good, didn't he? I certainly think so! Thank-you very much, Karl, you put a smile on my face.
I hope you all enjoy your week as well!
Take care,
Maria ~Rusty Hinge
What a great husband! It looks beautiful. Happy Belated Birthday!
