It's Beginning To Look Like Fall!


The weather outside certainly doesn't feel like fall, so since I am a Harley Widow on Thursday nights, I decided to put some fall accessories out and take pictures! This is the family room coffee table. I love the leaf vase I found in Tennessee a couple of years ago.


The breakfast nook table with my Starbucks pumpkin coffee mugs hanging in the background. Amanda gave them to me last year.


A closer shot of the pumpkin mugs.


The leaf bowl Emily gave me last year. I think I need to learn how to take better pics!

Have to bring my own fall smell into the house with a Yankee Harvest Candle with the turkey topper sitting beside. I love this candle!



A close up of the pumpkin topiaries I found this year at Homegoods.


The fall wreath hanging from the mirror in the living room.


Ella wanted to be included too! She followed me around the house as I was taking the pics! Of course she always turned her head just as I would snap the picture!


Flowers in a pumpkin and the wheat candle holders on the table in the foyer.


My illuminated scarecrow. I also have one of these in my office at work.


This pic was supposed to be #1. Gene heading off to join his boss and a few other guys for a ride to Ft. Pierce to bike night. This has become a Thursday night tradition. I'm glad he is able to go out and ride his bike with other responsible guys.



Heading off!


Wreath on the front door.


Arrangement on the buffet in the dining room.


The dining room table. I had 2 of these turkeys and I broke one carrying it down the stairs. I was so upset! This is my attempt at bringing fall to South Florida. Now, if the weather would cool down just a bit, I would be very happy.

Melissa,
Your home is always so beautiful. I too, love fall. The weather here has turned cool and the leaves are starting to turn.
Your pictures are lovely. I remember one Thanksgiving in Fl. We turned the ac up sky high, so it would feel more like fall.

Oooh! I am putting all my stuff out tonight. It gets nice and cool in the evenings and early morning here. The glass on the kitchen table is cute. I like all the stuff in it.

Your home looks lovely. I have decorated our home too. We don't have very many decorations, so the children made some. Someday I know I will wish there were more "little hand" made decorations all over my home once again. I enjoyed your pictures. I have a pumpkin spice candle that makes it smell soooooo good in here.
