~A Teeny Bit of Fall~

Hi everyone,
I decided to start putting some fall things out, it seems really like fall today because it was Sydney's first day of school for 2nd grade, I have pictures of her at the end of this post.

I made this stitchery last year and it's designed by Primitive Betty's love her designs! I have it on the first shelf of my step back cupboard.

This fall garland was given to me last year as a Christmas present and I had to wait till now to use it, the lights are lit by batteries and the berries are fall colored, so neat!

I stained these white pumpkins last year and they kept very nice!


I love this little pumpkin with the black stars!




I also added to my table in the keeping room. I figured I'd start decorating for fall now because I'll be working, it's not so bad, I only work two days next week then more will be added as the holidays come closer...I just want some money in my pocket, if you know what I mean and they called me and asked me if I wanted the job and that doesn't happen now a days to much so I took it! I know at Christmas I'll be happy that I did!




Here's Sydney and Samantha (still in her pj's) Sam will go on the bus next year to kindergarten...they are growing up to fast! I was so blessed to see them born and so now when I look at them I realize just how much time flys by!







Here's Syd...all teeth:)






and there she goes...she called me after school and told me she had fun and liked her teacher and that she sat by her best friend gee, sometimes I'd like to be 7 again... nah! Just kidding:)





I didn't get to do WWW because what I'm working on wasn't finished and I planned on posting it today but I got it stained after I got home from watching the girls and it's not dry enough to bring it in from the garage, so I think I'll keep it for next week.
This week has went by so fast just like last week, maybe it's because school started, I noticed the past few mornings we have had fog then the sun comes out...reminds fall is just around the corner.

  2. Oh, Rondell, your house just looks so inviting! Give me a minute to climb into my favorite boots and brown wool coat and I'll be right over... do pumpkin muffins sound OK for a crisp 'fall' day?

    (I can't wait for fall!!)

  9. Rondell, All your decorating looks great. Isn't it fun to get something like the garland, pack it away and when you get out your decorations there it is! Something new to decorate with. I try to buy something AFTER halloween every year that I can do that with. Have a good weekend. ~Ann

  12. Rondell,
    Love your fall decorating so far. It really feels like fall in Michigan and I have started putting out a few things as well. The stitchery from Betty is the same one I did into a pillow last year. Have a great weekend.
    hugs,

  13. Oh yes, there's nothing more fun than decorating for fall! Your home looks so cozy. What a couple of dollies your granddaughters are! Abbey is getting her new front teeth too, isn't it a hoot? Congratulations on your job, Dawn

  14. Your things look so nice. I need to go up and get my box of things out. I really like the lights. So glad that school went well. Some days it would be nice to be 7 and not have a care, but I wouldn't trade either. Take care and have a good weekend.

  15. I'm ready for Fall too! Love everything so far, Rondell! Those little pumpkins are adorable! Love those tiny little lights!

    And the girls are really growing fast! I can't believe my grandaughter will be 5 in October.
    She started preschool this week and loves it so far. Time flies when you measure it by a child's age and activities!

    Have a great weekend!

    What a cute little white pumpkin with black stars - so cute.

    The girls are adorable and isn't it a bittersweet day? Seeing them off to school is so sad but having time to do whatever is not so sad!

  23. Rondell,
    Love the little touches of Fall that you put out. It's feeling like Fall here in Ohio too!! Josie has her first PeeWee football game to cheer at on Sunday and it is only going to be in the mid 60's. Sounds like Fall to me!! And this grandma is bring out the sweatshirt to wear to the game!
