An Autumn Decor Peek & a Wicked Little Bit of Halloween.

I’ve been taking a couple of photos here and there, of our homestead autumn decor, simply because it is FUN for me, and I know many of you love to see this kind of stuff.  So, I’m sharing, just as I did last year.  It’s just a small collection of shots, and most all of the decor I’ve done is indoors.  Not much has been done with the outdoors at this point in time, although we did rip out all of the tomato plants and cosmos. It seems we still have some jalapeno and bell peppers growing though, so we’ve left those for the time being.  Marigold plants remain for now as well, adding some color to the near empty gardens now.  The strawberry beds need to be ‘put to bed’ before the first frost!  Which feels like it may be soon!  It’s gotten pretty chilly around here.Read More

Changing Season Gears

With this past Sunday being the last day of November, we put some efforts forth in transforming the seasonal aura of our home, to help inspire our spirits and hearts to do the same!  After all, Christmas is just around the snowy bend!  (Ok, we don’t have snow yet, but we’re-a-wishin’!) So we ‘cleaned house’ as they say, and put away anything themed autumn and Thanksgiving, and brought on the December decor.
Our seasonal table / Liturgical alter had a real overhaul, to start. We put away our Souls to Pray For scroll, the prayer cards, and the bits of fall decor that was strewn about.  The abundance of large acorns got thrown back outside, and I’m sure the squirrels found themselves scratching their furry little heads with those scary little paws, wondering how they have missed so many all of this time.… Read More

Autumn Decorating…Check!

Seasonal decorating around our home isn’t a chore, it’s an exciting event we make the most of! With Autumn being one of our very favorite seasons, we got right to it the day after it was officially Fall. And what’s decorating without cocoa?  We usually fill the air with festive music as well, as the kids take turns grabbing this and that, to find just the right spot for it.

The decorating is not completely done for this season.  I’ve got some pumpkin project plans for this weekend, and if we really get to it, I’ll be sure to take photos and share.… Read More
