We live in a BEAUTIFUL place. I know that there is beauty all around in God's creation and it looks different in different places. I love the tall pines trees at home in Lousiana, the wide open sky in Montana, and the ocean in California BUT here in Colorado I feel as though God added a little extra. This weekend we took a drive to see the Aspen trees as they are turning colors as fall is arriving. Here is a list of words that were used over & over during the drive: breathtaking, beautiful, amazing, wow, unbelievable....you get the idea. We pretty much ran out of adjectives to describe it. Pictures really don't do it justice, but here ya go
