Helmi and REDnesday

Gee! We are 1/2 way through the week already.
Today I am participating in
REDnesday with Sue
over at
Go over and see who else is over there!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
First some Fall color
that is mostly RED.
The other day I caught the changing colors
in the vineyards.
The late afternoon sun is shining through the
leaves.
If you saw my BLUE Monday post
you will have seen that we were off on another
jaunt.
Helmi made sure she came along
by jumping in my RED bag.

There she is in the RED bag.
We didn't need as much luggage since
it was only for the weekend.

Helmi says she is looking out the window.
But I think she was admiring herself in the mirror.
Hey! There is a RED car in the picture.
I just noticed that! LOL!

Had to show you this picture again.
After all that hutch is RED.
This is at the Awful Annie's Restaurant
we went too.
Read my last post for more on that.
We stayed at a Best Western this time.
RED in the room.
Of course Helmi has to check it out.
Hey Neabear, take a picture of me on the couch!

Oh, and I'll do a pose over here by the microwave.
Oh look, I am going to check out this chair.
Did you take a picture Neabear?
And another RED chair.
I feel so small in this one!
Ok Helmi, are you done hopping around the room?
I think we have found all the RED.
The last day at the conference we heard
this children's choir.
RED is their color.
And the lady in front of me has on RED too.
One of those girls in the choir is hers.
Helmi is making sure we don't forget her
as we get ready to leave.
Our view from the hotel.
The Highway Patrol station is next door.
The entrance.
Those pine trees remind me of camping.
Our room was on the second floor
near that tree.
Another view of the motel.
A RED car and a RED tree.
Such a pretty day for our drive home.
Helmi in the car.
Come on Neabear!
Let's get home.
~~~~~~~~~~~
Happy Rednesday to you!

What great pictures. We don't usually see such pretty red leaves on the grapes around here. Helmi is adorable! Looks like she had a great time :)

Looks like Helmi had a blast, Linnea! Loved all the reds, but I like her little red outfit best!

Well, I don't know about you, but I think Helmi enjoyed herself! Those leaf pictures are wonderful, and there's nothing like Mother Nature's reds!
Happy Rednesday!

Helmi is sóóó cute looking in her red and white dress!
No Autumn colors here, all the trees have lost their leaves. It's rainy and very cold here in the Netherlands.
Happy Rednesday!

What a fun sounding trip! (for Helmi anyways!) Your motel is very nice looking. I never get tired of Fall leaves photos - just more masterpieces from God's paintbrush!

Cottage Rose said...

Wow so many great Red photos. Helmi looks like she loves the camera.. amazing how many Red things you see when you are really looking for it..
Have a great week.

Hugs;
