Fall is here!

Wednesday, September 30, 2009
The sweetest of all fairies and her daddy our son Alan had flown back to their Georgia home early this morning. The house in the roses has returned to the familiar quietness; stillness and sweet memories lingering in the air… a hint of melancholy has kept me to myself for most of the day, but as the first cold snap sends me to the cedar trunk to embrace the warm woolen blankets, I am reminded that the happiest time of the year is here…

It is time to gather around the hearth, time for pumpkin pie, time to think about the turning leaves and cooling nights, and time to bring that cozy feeling into the house...

Autumn is a time of rebirth and a time to be happy!

What are your plans to cozy up your home for fall? I would love to hear what you're doing.
