Fall in Arizona

Ah, fall in Arizona. Our fall colors and subsequent leaf dropping usually happens in December. I really enjoy this time of year since it can also be really nice and warm outside!
This is my Chinese Pistache tree, which I purposely got for its color changing...

This is our Evergreen Elm tree, which is leafless for about 3-4 months (Dec - March). It's leaves are fairly small, so the "leaf pile" for the girls is not so impressive! ☺

In our neighborhood's large, grassy park area are Cottonwood trees. They turn a very pretty yellow and then drop their leaves. These leaves are larger than our Elm tree leaves, so you can make a really nice leaf pile!!
I was trying to teach the girls to roll down the hill, but they wanted to go side to side and not down ☺
