~~~WELCOME Fall!!!~~~~~

Hi everyone! I wasn't going to post the porch yet but since it is the first day of FALL, I decided to take some pics and WELCOME you all! It is supposed to RAIN, alot, here for the next few days so I had to take advantage and get some shots!  My impatiens are BOUNTIFUL here in the front of the house. As you can see, they are about 2 feet high! I purposely plant red and orange impatiens in the Spring, so that they will look good through the Fall! I'm smart like that:):)

 The front porch as seen from the driveway.

 This bench is an oldie but a goodie! Last year we stained it EBONY. I love it black and especially in the Fall!

 On the bench I have my scarecrow (who wouldn't scare a flea)!!! along with a pretty, colorful pillow, a clay jack o lantern, a mum and gourds and pumpkins!

 AWWW, isn't he cute???:):)

 I don't "do" spooky! I like FRIENDLY looking pumpkins:):)

 On the other side of the porch is a chair and the round table from the back deck.

 This little guy welcomes you as well.

 I found this great pumpkin at CTS last year! Since it says "Harvest time" I can leave it like this til Thanksgiving! Love that!

 My Joe grew this coleus from a tiny little plant! The colors are SO pretty! He kept it alive over last winter!

 This little pillow was found at CTS also.

I DO welcome Fall! It is a favorite time of year for me. I look forward to apple cider, pumpkin pie and bread, comfort food, wearing different clothes, the smell of candles, and snuggling by a fire! It is still warm right now but cooler weather is right around the corner, I know! You all are WELCOME any time, so please come back!!!! XO, Pinky   I will join some of these parties too:
