Yessss! Fall is finally making her beautiful appearance. Spectacular colors, mulled cider, caramel corn, pumpkin bread, the chill in the air, trips to the farms, mums, the smell of wood smoke in the air, fall candles, back to school, pumpkins, pumpkins & more pumpkins....Halloween & Thanksgiving. It's my favorite time of the year. This year I feel as though the winds of change are getting ready to blow through my life again. We are thoroughly enjoying the empty nest seasonof our lives, and anxiously await the new arrival of our first Grandchild. I am going to be a Gammie! Some time around the beginning of the new year she is expected to arrive. It will be a special holiday season and the last one for my youngest daughter & her husband to enjoy with just each other. Their lives are about to be filled with more love and joy than they can even imagine. Without further ado here is our home all ready for FALL!
