...a bit of fall frolic...


I have been feeling pretty productive this week when its come to get things done around the home! However, its been a week since I've been to the gym and am feeling the sluggishness of that:( I was determined to get some fall decor up this week and succeeded with that!

I put out some yard signs like the lil scarecrow man above...
did a little bit to our picture window- still need to add a few more things.

Got some cute baby pumpkins from Meijer!
Cannot wait to get some BIG pumpkins for the porch!!


My mail carrier hates when I put things on my mailbox but I thought the pumpkin looked cute hanging there! I really want to paint our mailbox white too, it looks SO blah!!


Cute lil flag:)


I got this scarecrow last year from Michael's for less than $2 after Halloween!


Peek-a-Boo!
Gage is peekin' at you:)
He loves the scarecrows; I have 2 big ones that he calls "mommy and daddy care-crow" and 2 little ones which he says are "gagie and B (thats what he calls Gavin) care-crows" TOO CUTE!

Not too many flowers are still in bloom after the frost lately, but here are some impatients I planted in our wishing well...


hanging baskets are still holding up nicely...


... MUMS!!!... I love MUMS! And cannot wait to plant more!
These pink pretties have come back each year for 3 years now!

Gage was keeping me company as I was taking these pics, he wanted to climb the tree too!
Typical boy!

Hope you all have a great Labor Day weekend!
I'd like to take the boys to our BIG Farmer's Market tomorrow to browse and have lunch...
then off to the in-laws lake cottage Sunday for a cookout!

Hugs,
Noelle ♥

You have so much cute stuff, Noelle! I love scarecrows and baby pumpkins. I made a baby boy scarecrow one year. It was so cute.

I was soooo sad to find that many of my Fall decos molded! Ack! I hate mold and Virginia is one moldy place! One of my boxes had fallen off the basement shelf and onto the floor which caused it to mold. :( Some of it was salvageable but my favorite corn stalk basket had to be thrown away.

There are some things I haven't found yet... Hmmm... I think we need to organize the basement!

Have fun at the Farmer's Market! ♥
