A Reason for Every Season!

I love the changing of each season because they all bring about different memories and happy times. As the weather has definitely been changing here in Rexburg it has gotten me excited for the Holiday season and then I got thinking how I absolutely love every season for different reasons. Each one brings about an exciting time and makes me so grateful for the different seasons God has blessed us with. Here are some of my favorite things in every season.

AUTUMN: "Winter is an etching, spring a watercolor, summer an oil painting and autumn a mosaic of them all. ~Stanley Horowitz

What I love about autumn time:
Leaves changing colors and falling off the trees
