Red Fun

As the last of the leaves have now fallen here, I wanted to post a shot from a few week ago of the Japanese Red Maple on our side yard in full fall color. This is the same tree who's new seeds were featured in one of my very first posts.

This tree, transplanted from my dad's yard years ago as a small seedling, has provided much enjoyment to us in our little spot in the world. From it's new life each spring to the beauty it provides our yard into the summer and through the fall and even now..... as the kids have gathered up it's leaves for a jump pile, it is a blessing to us. The kids raked and saved these leaves off to the side to later crown the lesser trees leaves with these special ones.

Thanks Dad.
