Fall Decor and Decoration of another kind.

 I know... a lot of folks have already had their fall things out for weeks.. I won't say that I am just now doing my fall decorating because I am not. I am just slow posting things!! 


Susan gave me this fall wreath. I hung it on my door and added a cute little scarecrow to dress it up a bit. I wish I'd thought to add an orange bow at the top. Maybe next year.


I stuck a gnome in my herb planter. I love the pumpkins and gourds he's surrounded himself with. My curly parsley is not growing. Hasn't gotten much taller all summer long. Am I missing something in what to do for it?



This display was at a farmer's market. No, I did not bring any of them home with me but they were too pretty to not take a photo. Right?


I ocassionally make what I call a scrapbook journal page. This one was done last year.  Just another bit of Fall to brighten our days. 

On another note: I spent all afternoon yesterday going through a thick file I have of my husband's Naval records. It was such a nostalgic journey,oh the place he went, the achievements he made... I stand in awe of what that little country kid from Alabama did in his lifetime. And, I was part of it and for that I am thankful. 

He came up through the ranks from seaman and here he was getting his boards of Ltjg. at Annapolis. Just one of the thrills in our life.

  3. Good idea to add the scarecrow to the wreath, looks really cute. Great picture of your husband getting his 'boards,' what an accomplishment! I have a memory box in our closet that's filled with things from my childhood. Plus my husbands, and from when our kids were growing up. I love looking through things like that. Always brings a smile to my face.

  6. All the pumpkins and gourds that one sees at this time of the year are all so colourful and pretty. This is the first year in a long time that I didn't buy any :(
