Fall

This morning it actually felt like fall outside.  I walked to school in my usual sweat-capris and a t-shirt, and I was a little chilly!!!!

I decided I really wanted to decorate my front porch for fall, and I saw the mums out at Kroger last week.  Since that’s pretty much the only place I shop, I grabbed a couple along with a big pumpkin and brought them home.

Natalie and James were helping me, AND they just so happened to be dressed cutely, so I made them pose with the décor.

I LOVE this one.  LOVE. IT.

(You can see my little gourds that I grew by James!!)

Here’s my little set-up, with Natalie in the background.  Forgot to adjust things to get her in focus instead.  But I like how it turned out anyway.

I’m planning to get at least one more mum and of course some more punkins.  I’m going to let the kiddos pick out some though.

Finally I just moved Natalie to the foreground so I would have to work so hard to get her in focus.  :)

This super precious skirt was handed down to us from a friend along with a matching shirt that has a monogrammed “N” on it!!  The shirt is too big yet, but because of the skirt’s elastic waist, it fits her fine now.  And she likes her skirts and dresses on the long side anyway  (Though, she likes ‘em on the short side too.)    I could only manage to dig up one lousy one shirt to match in the interim, and it’s a tank-top.  I can never seem to find pretty white t-shirts when I want them.  :)

I love fall!!!!  I really love it when it actually feels like fall!!!!
