I love fall.  The brilliant, vibrant colors, the cool, crisp nip in the air and fall decorating.  A couple of weeks ago, I spent some time outside getting ready for fall.  Enjoy!

A great spot for the metal pumpkin between a pot of marigolds and the ever-blooming red rose bush.  I have two of these and place one on each side of the garage door.  They are so adorable in the evening with a battery light, which is much safer than a candle.

Lots of pumpkins for decorating!

Mums are great for fall decorating.  I think I will plant one of these in the galvanized tub.

This large metal pumpkin (from my friend Deb of Rubbish to Rubies – like her on Facebook!) is perfect for fall decorating.

The mums and marigolds are thriving along the front of the house.  Hopefully all the new mums that I am planting will come back as strong next spring.  Notice the plants in the old wheelbarrow!  Aren’t they spectacular!  Thanks to my wonderful husband Murray who does a great job taking care of all the plants.  He certainly has a green thumb.  Once a farmer, always a farmer!

The soybeans are almost ready to be harvested.  Only a few green leaves remain.  I love fall, but fall means that winter is right around the corner!!

Thanks for stopping by.  Have a great day!

Until next time,

Pat, Kathi, and Carla
