Have you ordered yours...?
I don't want to step on anyone else's toes, but just wanted to tell you that just a week or so ago I ordered Marian's (aka "Miss Mustard Seed") new book from Nelson Thomas Inspired You, on her blog's pre-order link. And what a surprise when it showed up in my mailbox today! I've just thumbed through it and it looks wonderful. I can't wait to settle down to read it. For a link to the site Just click here. You'll also enjoy a video about the book in her own words.

On the Porch
I'm going to admit that I've been dragging my feet about posting any photos of the outside of the house, because I just haven't been able to get good ones. The front is heavily shaded and if it's overcast out, then just forget it. blah, boring, washed out. So we had some sunshine the other day, and I managed to get a few shots, but I'm warning you they are sort of lackluster. I did my best to dress them up a little for you. This little half park bench that I keep out here is my favorite pic.
I always have a hard time decorating the porch, so this year I invested in some vintage concrete urns that are painted white, for the mums. They are heavy little boogers, so hubby had to deal with them. But they do class it up a little, which always seems to be the issue.
We're in for a freeze tonight so this will all have to be covered. I can usually keep my Boston ferns until the first of November, but it might not happen this year. I hate throwing them away until it's just too cold for them.
I did bring out one of my Fall Pendleton wool throws to bring in a little color, and then added some of that "worth it's weight in gold" bittersweet vine to the mix. I'm going to have to include bittersweet in every blog post I do this Fall, just to get my money's worth out of it!

Thank you PicMonkey for all your help!
I guess I just need about $200 worth
of extra pumpkins sitting around out here.
Maybe that would help.
That, or a personal visit from Martha Stewart.
Wonder how much she charges for house calls?

I'm really loving this plump one here in front.
white, with some green and orange veining.
And I think this one is called a Peanut Pumpkin,
see, what did I tell you about the photos?
OK, gotta round up those old sheets and blankets
so I can tuck these babies in for the night!
