Fall is my absolute favorite time of year. Husband calls it “the season of death” since the leaves die and it segues to winter, his most un-favorite time of year. But I love it! The leaves, the crisp air, the absence of that hated Virginia humidity, pumpkin flavored everything, puffy vests, boots, stews in the crock pot…the list could go on!
I just thought I’d share the splashy display of fall color Virginia is so famous for, as seen from my back door.
look at that red tree!
(And yes, that lantern is strategically placed so as to hide all of the crap on my neighbor’s patio…I can’t wait until those holly trees grow nice and tall!!!)
I have lots of pics to share from this weekend’s trip to Vicksburg, Mississippi! Lots and lots of house pics!

I have been noticing the slowly changing leaves myself, every morning and evening to and from work. It’s quite nice to drive the back roads from Fair Oaks to Dulles and see all the trees changing!
I’m SOOO with you girlfriend! LOVE everything Fall!
But we are pretty much the same person- haha! LOVE the colors- thanks for sharing! The East Coast is beautiful this time of year!
Fall is too “the season of death”. Your Hubby is right.
Gorgeous Leila! I love autumn colours. We have already had a dusting of snow here. I bet VA is gorgeous in the fall, without that humidity but still good weather. Here it can start getting cold in Oct. or Nov. and then it is all downhill…
Hope you are well! xo Terri
leila, i love your blog… you inspire me!
