On our way home from a walk to the park there was a chill that went to my bones and I smiled because Autumn has arrived. Before we know it a glorious display from the trees will unfold and I’m anxious to see it! You too?

I started decorating our house late last week by scattering tiny pumpkins on the main level of our house.  There are orange lights strung up in here letting off the perfect glow for darker days and cozy evenings.

I’m reminded how much I love this time of year. It is cozy, beautiful, full of adorable scarves, boots, blankets, warm drinks, and tons of baking!

In our kitchen I added some small pumpkins near the coffee area and on the dish soap stand. (I just didn’t get a picture of that) These pictures don’t capture the ambiance if you know what I mean but it was really fun to pull out the tupperware labeled ‘Fall’.

One of my favorite things to pick up this year were the mums. I think they’re beautiful but not sure how long they’ll last inside? I’m keeping an eye on them. We’ll see!

I also had fun putting together a fall box!

I wish you could come over because I would make you look at the lights, eat pumpkin muffins with me, and drink delicious cups of coffee.

But I’d have to warn you about our new ferocious kitten…

I’m kidding, she’s actually very sweet and playful!

Her name is Willow and it’s rare that she isn’t right under our feet or sitting next to me. I love that!

Sadly she isn’t feeling great right now and has a little infection, but hopefully her medicine will have her healthy soon.

 Garrett terrifies her but she’ll get used to him. He loves to stare right into her face and I guess that would terrify me too!

Until next time!
