Happy 2016!!!

Happy 2016!!!

The year 2015 sure went by fast it wasn't good health wise for me so I'm hoping and praying

that 2016 is a healthy one. Right now I'm nursing a cold and happy that is all it is!

I thought I'd show the rest of my Christmas pictures and then my newly painted bath

room next time. 

I have this red mirrored tray sitting on my coffee table and did it a little different s

this year by scattering bells and and snowflakes on it. The berry ring and candle/vase

are from Target!

Here is another tray that I have on the diningroom table...different candle

sticks and greenery plus pinecones made a great diy centerpiece!

.Remember when I bought the birch logs? I still use them all year long! 

A little of my entryway...with the door open! I got the hubbs to put this mirror 

back up so now I'm looking for a narrow bench or table for in here.

I'll be back to show you my newly painted bathroom!

Hi Everyone!!!

How are you? Busy I bet…I know I am too! Well, we finally figured out posting

pictures on Windows Live Writer and also loading them on to my laptop, Windows 10

is much easier for the younger generation, I know my son loves it but for me

not so much. Nothing to do now but learn it I guess I will say it is quick and the

colors are more intense. This is why I was gone so long from blogging but today is

my lucky day because I’m back at posting…I have missed you all.♥

 

So, I have been decorating for Christmas  and I changed up my colors a bit too! I went from

all silver to red, black and white especially on my tree. Here it is…

love my curtains too!!!

No silver garland this year, I used red that I have had for years, red ornaments

and red berry sprigs!

,

 Also have a little theme going on with cars and trucks carrying Christmas trees, I

think they are so cute and I’ll be sharing more on my next post. This one is from

Pottery Barn!

Every year I look forward to unwrapping my Christmas S&P’s!

I buy a set every Christmas to add to my little collection.The

grandchildren always rearrange them..

 

Can you tell I love black and white…

 

Well, I’m so happy to be back again and hope this doesn’t happen again!

Have a blessed Sunday!

My Door For Fall

Fall has really arrived in Pennsylvania today was the first cold day of the season at least for me! I thought I'd show you My basket on the front door! The wall basket I found at a yard sale and I bought some floral leaves and berries at Hobby Lobby and just stuck them in the basket also the burlap sunflower pics are from Walmart! I'm posting this from my iPhone, now for some reason my phone isn't loading my newer pictures on to my computer, it did before and now it isn't...fustrating to say the least!  

I have orange lights around the door a first for me but found out I like them so they will

be on there for Thanksgiving too! I think though that I'll by more leaf garland!

Here is my rocker each year I try and do it a little bit different  than the year before. Also my thermos that I found at a yard sale this year for a 1.00!

My Pumpkins in a galvanized pail right by the mailbox to make the mailman happy!

Fall Vignettes

Hey, tomorrow is Friday and the start of the weekend, football game Friday night

than babysitting Saturday, Sunday I just plan to relax… what about you?

Here is my entrance to the diningroom/livingroom, I like the mirrors here from Target, they

were in my bedroom but I brought them out here and they fit perfectly!

My owl planter from Walmart from a few years ago, this year I added some leaves.

See the white vases in my hutch? They are now all sitting on top

of my gray chest of drawers, I’ve seen that in a couple homes and

always wanted to try it! I moved furniture around in my bedroom

so I’ll have to take some pictures for you!

 

My coffee table with the lantern from Target and the ceramic leaf

that I found at a yardsale for $3.00, I almost sold it last year but

decided to hang on to it, I like the white pumpkins on it.

My livingroom, the little pumpkins I got at TJMaxx and the galvanized container

I found at Goodwill. The basket on the hearth with the birch logs in it I found at

a church sale and painted gray!

That’s it lady’s, I hope you are all enjoy your weekend!  So glad you dropped

by!

I’ll be joining these parties:

A Little Bit of Fall

Hello everyone! I’m so happy, I’ve finally learned how to load and post pictures from

my iphone onto windows 10…how did I do it? What I should have did in the first

place… Googled it! At least two months of this and what I’m surprised at is  my son

not doing it. Oh well, I’m just glad that I’ll be able to get back into blogging again, I’ve

missed everyone and all of the parties that I wasn’t able to join in, now I’ll be joining

in on all the Friday ones today!

These pictures were taken with my phone and at night so please bare with me!

I have this cloche on my desk in the livingroom, doesn’t the pumpkin look real? Wish I

could remember where I bought it!

 

I have painted a few things on my bloggy break such as the little cupboard from Michael’s that

I had painted black and the child’s chair that I got from the curb! Now I have a fall pillow on it!

See my new knob from Hobby Lobby on the cupboard, I can’t stay out of that store.lol 

 

Here is a closer look at the pitcher.

I printed this I think last year so I forget who I got it from, let me know it is you ok? It is sitting

on my kitchen shelf with my .50  glass squirrel from Avon!

My mantel, funny how I do it different each year but with the same “stuff”

do you do the same thing or buy new?

Okay guys, I took more pictures so I’ll be sharing those soon…now here are parties I’ll be joining, It’s so

good to be back!

Hello Everyone!

So sorry for being away so long but I’m having a hard time with pictures loading and then not finding them, it is just not like Windows 7 and I

do get discouraged, plus I have to wait for Chris to stop by like he did this morning and I know he just cringes

when I ask him to try and fix it!

It’s football season here again, I’m not talking about the Steelers but highschool football, my son coaches, so every Friday we and the

whole family it seems sit in the bleachers and cheer him on, so far he has won every game! The picture below is of

Alex, coaches daughter, Samantha holding Nicholas, I’m using my iphone to take pictures because my camera is not working right!

After the game, talking to the reporter for the newspaper!

This summer I noticed my hair, after the operation, looking bad (all those meds) so I had Renee, my

hairdresser, do me in my natural color with a little bit of blonde feathering on the bottom.

Here I am with my oldest granddaughter Sydney,school shopping in August, I can’t believe

she is going to be 14 this year.

I’ve also been watching Nicholas on Thursday’s, he goes to Pre-School

but is off on Tuesday’s and Thursday’s! He has fake glasses on here

and he held the puzzle up so you could see how he put it together.

This is my grandog she is so adorable and I sure love her so much… her paws

crack me up, they look like mittens to me!

I’ll be back tomorrow and show you some of my fall and yes, I did put out a little, tiny bit of Halloween decorations,

I figure I may as well do it all so that I don’t have to get it from the basement twice!

Have a wonderful week ahead!

Fall Love!

Fall is right around the corner friends, days are shorter and you can just smell it in the air! Tomorrow is the last day for

our 90 degree weather and then they are calling for much cooler temps, one night is supposed to go down to 50!!!

I’m totally ready to put away the sea shells and sea glass aren’t you?  I’ve been pinning a lot lately, just can’t resist

those great fall ideas that everyone is putting out there!

Here are some of my favorites:

This neat mantle is from Just Destiny Mag.com love the chalkboard fire and the “Welcome Autumn” sign is a free

printable plus she used some half pumpkins that I’ve seen at Michale’s!

This one is from HGTV, look at all the printables, they look great all grouped together!

Love the gobble gobble one!

 

How about Pottery Barn? They always have great holiday items!

Be still my heart…a grain sack pumpkin from the old white house. Love it!

I have two velvet pumpkins which I usually place on my coffee table but this is a

cute idea with the basket and…looks like raffia. For some reason the lettered cottage

blog can’t be hyperlinked so be sure to stop by her blog!

Thanks so very much for stopping by, I always appreciate it!

Stop by my Fall pinterest board to see other fall ideas!
