I am way behind with my blogging! September and October have been
very hectic months.

grand puppy. Courtenay calls him "Devil Dog" when gets into
one of those crazy puppy moods.
one of those crazy puppy moods.
I had an anniversary and a birthday with several celebrations with friends.
While having lunch with two very dear friends, Vickie and Elaine.
Vickie mentioned how much she enjoyed the blog I did on
my little vases and containers.
This got me thinking about how my mother, daughter and I have
always shared the joy of collecting special things. We had
our Book Club at my daughter, Courtenay's house last night. I noticed
as soon as I walked in, that she had out all of her
Halloween Heirlooms!
I thought I would make this a blog post on what our family
does
This smiling fellow greets you at Courtenay's, door.
As you enter her casual entry (mudroom) you will find the first
touches of Autumn.
This scarecrow glitters and glows. He just doesn't show up as dazzling as
he really appears.
Her breakfast room table is ready to start a crisp, sunny day!
Just like at Easter , we have to have a special
Halloween Tree!
Here is a picture of my Halloween Tree. Do you see the green faced witch
my friend Bonnie gave me? When Jake was very little, he loved that witch on the tree. He had the adults laughing as He could not pronounce
a W so his witch started with the letter B!
Courtenay has a beautiful collection of
Neiman Marcus Christmas Snow Globes.
One year I gave her this one for a Halloween surprise.
I think all females can identify with this tea towel!
This is perfect for serving up a ghostly brew.
I got my exercise today chasing their puppy, so I could
get the tea light candle out of his mouth.The puppy is named "Golden."
Jake isn't much for silly names. His gold fish was named "Fish."
Come over to my house and I might serve you
some yummy treats on my Fall pumpkin plate.
I can't decide if my wreath is crooked or maybe
it is just the photographer!
This little scarecrow may be doing a good job with the birds.
But he is not helping a bit with the deer who keep getting in
the lower planter!
This is Boney. He is my newest addition to our
Halloween decor!
When black cats prowl and pumpkins gleam,
May luck be yours on Halloween.
