Mrs. Matlock asked us to look for autumn colors this week and share a post on them. JDaniel and I took a walk around our yard and this is what we found.
We loved the bright red seeds hanging from the tree.
This is JDaniel’s tree. It was planted to celebrate his six month birthday. Its leaves are green with a hint of red and yellow.
These leaves are so pretty that I took a close up of them.
It is a little fuzzy, but I still like the close up.
The deep purple leaves of this tree in our front yard remind me of plums.
It is wonderful to see the many colors in this tree’s leaves as it starts to dress for the fall.
JDaniel selected Warty Bumpy and Greenie from a pumpkin lot down on main street. I bet you can guess which one is Greenie.
Fall came late to South Carolina.
The leaves are just starting to change and only a few have fallen to the ground.
We talked about the colors we discovered. There were shades of red, purple, yellow, green and orange.
What other autumn colors should we look for?
What colors are you seeing where you live?

Looks like you are seeing more than we are in Louisiana. It nice and cool today, I hope it stays with us.
Love those pumpkins. I have pictures like that when we were on vacation. I was amazed with that bumpy pumpkin, is it called a peanut pumpkin? I can’t remember.
Thanks for linking up.
What a great task to do with the kids!
We , in North Georgia, also enjoying many colors this fall
Those pumpkins are beautiful!
Lots of colors here, finally. Peak is supposed to be next week.
YOur autumn colors are beautiful. Lovey to pick them out with your son.
There is nothing better than Fall in the Carolinas! I think that is what I miss the most!
Warty pumpkins are my favorite.
Your trees look beautiful. We only now start to see change where we live – it’s been a pretty warm fall so far!
I really, really love red leaves and wish all trees turned red.
Kate picked up a tiny gourd full of bumps at the patch on Monday.
Lovely …
It’s raining here today, pretty hard, so many of the leaves have fallen.
Blessings
Warts on pumpkins are the BEST!

How I love autumn!
Fall hasn’t come to my area yet. It just hasn’t gotten cold enough. But I think I can feel it coming!
=)
I love the colors you found in your hard! Love the pumpkin names too 😉
Such beautiful pictures!! Fall is arriving late here as well. We’re just now starting to see a faint change in the colors of the leaves. And it’s been in the 80’s so it really doesn’t even feel like fall. Nothing like carving pumpkins while you’re sweating like a pig because of the heat!!
I hope I can experience “real” fall one day since it’s pretty much summer all-year round here… =)
yes, it did come late, didn’t it? i think we’re still actually waiting for fall’s arrival down here in charleston.
Beautiful photos, I love autumn. x
Beautiful fall pictures! You have so many wonderful colors. Our fall hasn’t had the brilliant colors we usually do, so I’m really enjoying everyone else’s colors.
I just adore fall! I even love the smell, the gentle breezes, and the pretty leaves falling from other’s trees into my yard.
happy wednesday,
Jen
I love all the pictures. So beautiful and very fall-ish!
Love seeing the colors of fall.
I love that warty pumpkin!
Up here fall is all green and grey and black – all rubbed out of focus with a layer of mist.
Great ‘Autumn’ images!
Have a great weekend too,
Alphabe-Thursday
I love autumn reds. And I am missing pumpkins this year! We haven’t seen them in Romania, but I’m still hopeful they’ll make an appearance soon.
Love that warty pumpkin!! Great shots of fall colors!
I love colors of the fall….it’s my favorite color palette season. I love all the different shades of reds, greens and orange…..gorgeous.
You found at least something ! I didn’t find anything but green !!
At least you found some colors of fall, everything is still green here, it is very odd….love the pumpkins, especially the warty one! xo
Oh yes, as it did here too, and in fact we’re gonna have the 60’s again all weekend HOORAY!!! and into next week…But you have managed to pull out for us the best ever autumn that has come to you…thanks!
Gorgeous pictures! I love fall.
Fall certainly is a great time to talk with JDaniel about colours!
The colours have been a little weird around here. The horse chestnut trees started to change right back in early August, but then nothing else happened. The rest of the trees are finally beginning to catch up!
Your photos are lovely! JDaniel will remember them when he is older.
Well…we won’t see fall colors in Houston until December! I believe my maple looses its leave in January and a few weeks later…the buds appear!
I love those warty pumpkins! lol
Such pretty photos! Would love it if you would link some pictures up at my photo swap…going on right now!! http://www.sweetlittlegals.com/2011/10/sweet-little-photo-swap-18.html
Our leaves are just beginning to peak with color, except for the sumac which always seems to lead the way!
These are really some great pics…I love fall!
Wartie and Greenie! How cute! I love those leaves your shared, too. The name of that tree is right on the tip of my brain, but alas, it will not release from the sticky mess that is my actual thought process!
This was lovely.
Thank you for sharing it!
A+
love the pumpkin names 🙂
