Here are a few of my photos from the supermoon lunar eclipse last night. What a beautiful evening it was!

This lily is even more beautiful than the first one that bloomed in my yard!
It feels more like winter than fall in the Midwest, and just about all of the leaves have fallen from the trees. My husband and I are braving the frigid weather to rake our leaves before snowfall, in an attempt to help our new grass grow. Here are some brilliant red leaves from before they all fell.
The first beautiful leaf fallen from our maple tree (taken before the tree turned a brilliant yellow).
Yesterday brought several rounds of quick, but fierce, thunderstorms through the Kansas City area. Some of my friends posted photos on facebook of some crazy-looking frontal clouds, but unfortunately I was stuck inside work without a good view. Yesterday at sunset, however, there were some storms off in the distance, causing the sky to have a really unique, gorgeous hue.
I took this photo a few weeks ago, and I’m just now getting around to posting it. This is my pet turtle Michelangelo, basking in actual sunlight for once. Do you know what kind of turtle he is?
