Changing

The seasons are definitely changing now in our little part of the world. It's getting cold and we may have our first freeze tonight. Let's take a quick walk around the yard.

My oakleaf hydrangeas have been the most beautiful colors.

The leaves are beginning to close up now.

Looking down the walking path behind our pond....there's a roadblock of leaves.

This one little geraniums refuses to give up.

The ornamental grasses are all topped out with seed pods.

Oh how I love to be in the yard!

I will miss it this winter...this girl doesn't spend much time out there in the cold Oklahoma wind!

Now let's run back in for some hot coffee...it's that time of day. 3:00!!

What Did You Do Today Friend?

I spent some time outside.

Raked some leaves.

Admired the colors.

Thought about pentas.

They bloom all summer and still look pretty now.

Smiled at my pansies.

I enjoyed this fall day.

Hope you did too.

It's Fall Y'all

Welcome to It's Fall Y'all!

I'm just getting started with a little Fall decorating.

Love this little pumpkin teapot. It was a gift from a great friend.

A wonderful new candle sets the mood for snuggling.

Isn't it funny how we associate certain scents with each season?

This candle is pumpkin spice.

Of course, we have to welcome guests with the perfect wreath.

Mums are mingling with geraniums on the front porch.

Mums and a beautiful magazine on the ottoman.

A fallish colored plate came out of the cabinet. I love this plate.

Now I'm off to buy some pumpkins. My favorites are the cinderella pumpkins.

How about you?

Thank you Rhoda for hosting this blog get together. :)

Be sure to go over and visit everyone else today.

Just Remembering Last Fall

It's so cool here that it's definitely making us happy that Fall is on it's way. I've just been reminiscing a little.

Pretty Mums.

Tailgating.

The teenagers went with me to pick...

...the perfect pumpkin.

Homemade potato soup.

Yes, we are ready. Are you?
