Abundant Blessing

Hello.

I love fall.  I love the colors, the cooler air, the promise of Christmas, and the clothes.  I love the clothes of fall.  lol.  sooo true.

I made this wreath for the front door las year.  The base is an old wicker purse and the florals are from Wal-Mart.

See, fall colors just make you look good.

This picture not so good, could have cleaned up the bird poop.  Honestly I didn't see it until I was back on the computer, so it stays.  This is real life here on the ranch!

This little pumpkin had to be shared.

This is something new I am trying this year, a Thanksgiving tree.  Later I will add some Christmas ornaments and poinsettias.

Really hard to take pictures of a tree.  So what do you think, Thanksgiving tree - yes or no?  I admit it feels a little weird to have a tree up so soon.  I could easily pull it into a storage room and bring it back out closer to the holidays but for sure it was easier to put up now than after Thanksgiving, I am usually pooped then.

Up next I try my hand at floral arrangement.  hahahahahahahaha

See ya.

What's Up?? !!!!

Hey all!  I've been MIA lately, as far as this blog is concerned, but never fear - I am active on Pinterest!

To anyone who is also on Pinterest you then know what I am saying when I say ADDICTED.  Yep, I love it there.  If you are interested in seeing what all the buzz is about go to pinterest.com and check it out.

One cool thing about it, though, is the blogs are well represented.  I found a new one that I am in love with and want to feature.  A Heart in Provence.  The photography is beautiful, the vignettes are beautiful,  the clothing is not my style but loving all the vintage linens and natural elements.  It is a feast for the eyes.

So, I've been busy decorating for fall around here.  First I want to show you God's fall decor with some photos from the mountains here in the southwest.

This is NOT fall decorating, it is a warning!!!!!  I bought a candle poured in a glass jar, left it burning on my beautiful table and forgot it.  

Yes, forgot all about it!!!  I could smell something, I looked and looked around the house.  I had candles burning in other rooms, so thought it must be from the wick that I had just blown out.  

 

The next morning I found this.

Yes, this is could have been bad, very, very, very bad.

 

And now, for God's glorious beauty.

We took a drive to Monjour lookout in Southeastern New Mexico.

Loved the stone steps, built in the 1940's.

Gorgeous.

My honey.

Love the scarf.

Honey, strike a pose.

Yea, this look.

What he takes pictures of . . .

hahaha

 I didn't really fall, it was staged just for kicks.

The sky just seems bluer up here, isn't it beautiful.

Wild horses.

 Thank you, up next - fall decorating around the house.  

See ya.
