A bit of fall

I thought maybe I should show you a little bit of our fall this year.
We did our yearly leaf drive up through Santa Clara to Saranac to Lake Placid in October.
It was pretty, as you can see, although a week earlier would have been better.




Isn't he cute?
And 12 already!
And the only one who wanted to go with us.

Look at that smile!
What a cutie!
We rewarded him for coming with us by buying him McDonalds.

That handsome guy is my favorite person alive.
He carries my kayak for me.
And he pushes me out and pulls me back in so my feet stay dry!
I love that man!
And I love kayaking in the fall.

In which I decorate tables

Last Saturday we had a lovely ladies brunch at church. I thought I would show you the two tables I decorated for the event.

My beautiful fall table with my beautiful Rowe pottery.
Notice the gorgeous centerpiece in my mother's gorgeous dough box.
Beautiful, is it not?





This is the fun Christmas table I did with my friend Paula.
We had a blast putting this together, and I was thrilled with the results.
So gay and Christmasy is it not?

It was quite a lovely affair.
I only had to haul half my house to the church.
Then bring it all home dirty, wash it and put it away.
But that's okay, because it was fun and for a good cause.
We raised over $900.00 for our local food pantries!

Happy Holidays!
