Getting Ready For FALL!




I Love to garden all summer long but, some of the best fun outside is getting ready for the FAll with Halloween decorating. I keep it simple & not overdone & try to create some whimsy while having fun! Getting ready for the big DECORATING weekend this weekend & will use lots of Cinderella Pumpkins, Shabby white pumpkins ,along with pretty mums, grasses & of course my favorite ornamental kale & Cabbage. These pictures are from last year & we are going to tweak it a bit this year! We'll drag out the witches & the funny ghoul who is smoking a cigar & all the other bits of whimsy we have stored in the attic for Halloween. We'll try to get a funny scarecrow man together in between the football games & the cheerleading & the usual weekend craziness with the grandkids! That's squeezed in with getting the boat winterized & the cottage in RI ready for Fall! We will somehow squeeze it all in & have fun doing all we have to do!! Have a GREAT Weekend whatever you plan to do!!! Quote by George Eliot~"Delicious Autumn! My very soul is wedded to it, and if I were a bird I would fly about the earth seeking the successive Autumns!"
