~~FINALLY FEELING FALL!~~







As of today I know it's here! I LOVE AUTUMN!! I walked outside at 5:30 this morning & was overwhelmed by a rush of COOL air, an awesome breeze, & that wonderful fall feeling! There's nothing like it! It's a very welcoming thing & when it happens I feel a new energy & comfort & coziness in my cottage ~~ and that's when I'm hooked on candles! The first thing on my list for our weekly wal-mart shopping trip on Sunday was my very favorite Pumpkin Spice Candle~the minute I lit it I was surrounded by a cozy feeling I can't explain - I just feel it. And today, being fall - not officially - but in my world ~ starts my daily lighting of candles all over the house. I love them as much as I love fall! This wonderful & finally cool day comes after a crazy week of no internet because of a burned out modem, trips to the library computer & mom's computer to keep up with ebay until my computer was back up & running. So now, finally being almost caught up with ebay, I will open more windows, go light another candle & enjoy MY first day of Autumn! Hope you're feeling fall in your world too!

I was wondering if we would see Autumn anytime soon (last weekend was in the high 90's) but this morning it was down right chilly- had to go back in for a sweater :)I found myself picking up pumpkin scented goodies & Fall paper goods at the store, then came home & put out the seasonal "Welcome" flag, with pumpkins & grapes.
Glad to hear you world is settling down, so you can enjoy the new season.

Another thing we have in common KAthy, I light candles as the days get shorter and I just love the homey, romantic glow they give the house! I am feeling fall too, it is a beautiful day her and I am going out to do some gardening to enjoy it. Will probably have a fire in the fire pit this evening too. Have a beautiful fall!:>)

I am feeling spring!!! I can totally understand how delicious those first days of fall (autumn to us) are as I adore them too. I am currently enjoying a highly scented bunch of daphne, jonquils and hyacinths. Enjoy those yummy candles. I am starting to think about Christmas projects (for summer). I have never had a winter Christmas here in New Zealand.

I am loving this cooler air too! I actually woke up early just so I could go outside and catch a breath of cool air and think of autumn! I too love to burn candles and especially in the cooler months of fall and winter, and bake and snuggle and take long drives in the country! Your photos are just beautiful! Thanks for sharing!

I LOVE fall also! It's a great cozy feeling! And there's such a sweet smell in the air. Fall hasn't hit Ohio yet, but it will soon!!!!!~

Hi Kathy....your fall decorations are just lovely. I also love autumn, the colors and smells and just the overall feeling of autumn in the air. :)
