I woke up to this yesterday morning...the photo does not do it justice!
And thought I'd share a little fall...
my favorite time of year...
the color of pumpkin...
the smells of autumn...
the cool, crisp nights...
pumpkin spice
lattes...
the scent of fall candles...
pumpkin patches and fall festivals...
apples with
caramel dip...
warm soup and artisan bread...
the Gilmore Girls (a lot of fall there!)...
pumpkin carving and chili feed with friends...
is there a way to make the computer area festive?...
God's creation in all it's glory...
Talk a walk this evening...watch the fog settle over the fields...have a pumpkin bar and a cup of tea...set some soup to simmer...cuddle under a warm quilt and watch an old movie...love the ones you're with...
Oh Holly, your home is gorgeous! Park like, even.
ReplyDeleteFall is my favorite and you got it right!
I picked up the same bottle of wine at Haggens' last week, I found several great choices for fall and halloween labels. I hope the wine is good...it's cute though if nothing else.
Holly, I love getting a look at your pretty home. You always have the seasonal decor just perfect and inviting. Spring has always been my favorite season but I have to admit after this past hot summer I am enjoying fall more than ever. You have a ton of Gooseberry cook books! I'll never catch up with you. Are all those pictures right outside your door? How blessed you are. P.S. I agree we are not aging at all it is just our children. Brenda
ReplyDeleteCan I hire you to be a "buyer" for my home? I am in awe of you and your beautiful home inside and out!
ReplyDeleteI'm making soup and Artisan bread today and bottling my homemade raspberry wine. Trying to make the most out of being home with a sick kid. (for the 6th day in a row....grrrrr)
Karen, there is nothing I like more than spending other people's money...I'll take the job!!!!
ReplyDeleteYou sound much more ambitious than I am...I just think about doing those things...I rarely do them!!!
Hope the kids get beter soon!
Holly,
ReplyDeleteYour home is beautiful. Love the Mt Baker shot and the pictures of your yard. Hope you had a great time Puyallup. One of these days I'm going to get past the Skagit border for some of these fabulous antique/junk/old stuff shows! There are some great looking ones that I've been "watching" for a few years! My mom and I made it to the Lynden show. I thought there were more antiques this year, which I liked.
Right now, we're up to our eyebrows in our work on the Peach Palace in Lynden. It's on Grover, just a few blocks from Fairway Center. We're trying to clean it up, give back a little character and then rent it. Next spring will bring a coat of EXTERIOR paint and then we'll have to change the name :)
Enjoy the remainder of your weekend.
Chris
So beautiful. That view is stunning. I love this post--fall is so wonderful!

Love your decor and your pic of Baker is amazing:)
ReplyDeleteOh Holly, I just Luv all of those Fall Festive Photos!! What beautiful scenery you woke to!!!
ReplyDeleteI would just love to get my hands on one of those caramel apples on the front of that Celebrate Magazine ;)
I have Chili in the Crockpot this evening, enjoying this Absolutely Gorgeous Weather that God has been blessing us with!!
Question for you, I'm looking for a "farm" dining room table to go in my dining room with a possible matching hutch in either a maple or white washed wood. Do you have any Antique or other stores you could lead me too??
Thanks, Katie
Heyyyy! I wish I was a Walton too....I love Fall as well. Your house is festive.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful, Holly Dolly!
ReplyDeleteYou make me miss the PNW and even more, make me miss you! I will just pretend we're sitting in your kitchen, making, then eating pumpkin bars and drinking tea (can we go for that pumpkin spice latte in the morning?) Thanks for the great post!
Love you,
steewie
