~Fall decorating and storm damage!

Rewritten by Sue, Wednesday, October1, 2018           sunny, very warm , humid still, 80''s
Before the hurricane came I felt the need to do some nesting, so I cleaned the house and  finished my autumn decorating, which I had started a few weeks ago tweaking a little here and a little there.

It wasn't easy for me to start decorating as we have had the most extreme heat since May, usually by now we have cool mornings, warming during the day and then cooling in the evening. I have always  associated fall with the beginning of the new school year, as the leaves begin to change from green to yellow, brown, red, and burgundy, and cooler temps.

I love fall, it is my favorite season, with Christmas being my favorite holiday! I love that they come so close together, as it is easy for me to transition from one to the other.

 I also enjoy the led timer lights, so nice to come home too in the evenings.

Just another visitor to the farmhouse, he has certainly made himself at home, "please, make yourself at home," which is one of our number one phrases around here.

 I love the cozy feeling of candles, more timed led lights.

 Lots of secrets shared here at the fall farmhouse, "I believe she loves us best."

This is my thanksgiving tree, it has timed led lights too!

I enjoyed sharing a few of my fall decorations, with more to share later. This post was written before Florence came, and has since been edited.

~Storm update~

*************************************************************************

We are all safe, including the animals, with the turkeys only losing a few feathers, what a sight. Florence came and certainly made her presence known, we have been busy cleaning up her mess, and what a mess she made. 

With all the water around mosquitoes have really been a problem., a BIG problem.

 We lost a few trees,

 We lost power for a few days, I really learned a lot about persevering and ingenuity, made quite an impression on my family. ~wink~

Lots of rain, (over 15 inches)  we are so blessed to not have the flooding as so many in our state had, losing everything.Please keep them in your thoughts and prayers.

Thank you so much for praying, it meant so much to us. God is and has always been so faithful!

love, 

Sue
