The Pleasures of My Backyard!

 Hi Everyone!  Hope you are enjoying the beautiful fall.  The air is getting quite crisp and a jacket is now an essential part of the wardrobe.  It is getting a little too brisk to set out on the patio but I still enjoying looking out the window at the sweet little fall scenes around my yard.
   This little scarecrow hangs right outside my kitchen window and greets me every morning.   As I sit in the kitchen, enjoying my morning cup of coffee, and looking out the window, I realize just how enjoyable life's little pleasures really are.  The leaves were just starting to change when I took this pictures.  The colors have changed every morning and now are all a beautiful orange.
As the flowers start to look a little straggly, it is fun to add a colorful pumpkin to the planter.
To this planter I added a garden angel and a white pumpkin.  Most of the flower blooms are gone but I can still enjoy the garden and make it interesting.  Pumpkins are just a fun way to add creativity to your fall garden.
 This old teapot sits on the back porch step.  The flowers are all done for the season but the crow still makes it fun to look at.

  A fall flag flies from the patio fence.  It is easily viewed from my craft room window. This is a room where I spend a lot of time and looking out the window is just a delight.  This is my little corner of the world!  It is where I can be creative and enjoy God's handwork. It is the place where my heart is at rest, the  place where I feel  close to the Lord.  You can have the world but as for me,  just give me my own back yard.

To Everything there is a season, and a time for every purpose under heaven. Ecc. 3:1 

Blessing from my Backyard to Yours!
