A Halloween project!

Yay, for Fall! This is my favorite time of the year.  It's rainy today, but it makes it cooler outside.  
I didn't have time to finish any of my current projects that I have.  So I'm committing to ultimate crime - I am re-posting, lol! Ahhhh...I'm so sorry but I didn't have time.  I am constantly studying and I have another test on Tuesday.

So, here is a pic and a link for my Halloween Yarn Wreath.  If you don't know what yarn wreaths are you must live under a rock deep in the forest by the lonely trees.

Thanks for stopping by.  Have a great week.

Can you see it.... Can you feel it.... Can you smell it....

What am I talking about you ask - only the most glorious season of the year...

Fall

 Technically it's still about 3 or 4 weeks away, but who cares I will still say it's Fall after Labor day!

I can feel the change coming, the nights have a slight cooler breeze.  It's getting darker a tad bit earlier than it was last week.  We could go almost to 8:45 and still have light out.  Now, it's 8:30 and the sun is set. 

We'll be able to buy pomegranates from the market, yummy! I can also see the pecans on the trees, before you know they will be falling and ready for the picking. Soon pumpkins will start to appear.  I can go into Bed Bath & Beyond just to smell all the cinnamon scented pine cones and candles (yes, I do that). Baking treats is my absolute favorite thing to do....(squeal) ← can you tell I'm excited, lol!

Halloween and Thanksgiving decor is out.....Even Christmas is out.  Well in Hobby Lobby it is, they start putting it out in mid-July.  Crazy right, but they have a lot of space to set up. So I can understand.  I took out my Christmas tree's too, they have to be pre-fluffed. What...you don't pre-fluff the branches?  I know, I'm crazy but this is my favorite time of the year....I'm always super busy, I have classes at night, and my weekends are jam packed with errands, so  I start early. 

Between the studying and catching up on some movies with theHubs this weekend.  I will be trying my hand at baking.... breads, biscuits, rolls.  We'll see how that turns out.  I know it's still a little warm out, but I 'm so ready to start the Holiday cooking and baking. *\(",)/*

 Every one have a safe and wonderful Labor Day weekend!

Happy 1st Day of Fall.....

I'm soooo excited!!  This is my favorite season of the year. 
why you ask.....well:
  1. My 6th wedding anniversary is in November
  2. Duh....Halloween is next month!
  3. I can start taking out all my Christmas decor and getting it ready to put out...I have to pre-fluff my Christmas trees.  I have 1 downstairs  and 1 for upstairs.
  4. A even bigger Duh....Christmas is in 3 months!!  and I'm almost done with my Christmas gifts.  Are you?
  5. It gets chillier and colder and I can make my soups and stews and all that warm yummy goodness!
  6. I can wrap my lil Munchkin self with my big ole scarves.....I'm obsessed!
  7. This list can go on forever....so I think I'll stop here, lol!

I want the cooler weather......NOW!!!!

Can I just say I the FALL weather!!!   Who doesn't??  and with the horrendous heat that we've been having here in Houston....I can't wait for that last week in September.  I open my front door and can feel that Awesome cool breeze...letting you know that something amazing is around the corner!!  That's usually when it happens for us!! 

I love the tree's when their leaves start to change colors, the reds, yellows and oranges are amazing!!  Even though we don't have many trees around here that change it's beautiful when you see one!!  That's why we planted a Bradford Pear tree in the backyard!  I love it....and I get all giddy when it starts to change!!






I love decorating too......inside I usually do Fall items with a hint of Halloween!!  We don't have kids but I always do Halloween crafts with my nephews and nieces..."they want to see Halloween" around my home!  Then after Halloween I pluck the Halloweeny stuff up and keep the Fall stuff up. Then I wait till about a week before Thanksgiving, put all that stuff away and out comes the Christmas stuff!!  If I host Thanksgiving, then I'll wait and put Christmas stuff up that Black Friday!!!  That's only if I host....if not, its up a week before and I can shop to my hearts content on BF!!! ☺








This is my season....."Fallowwingmas", its my season and Holidays combined....lol!!

And I absolutely love going to Bed Bath and Beyond during the Holiday's!!  Not only for the shopping, but I love the Holiday scents in the air....the candles, pine cones, cinnamon!!  I know I'm weird!


So, my question to you is:

 What do you like about the Fall and when do you start to decorate?

Can't wait to see some responses, everyone have a great Monday afternoon!!
