This is the hardest season for me to make the transition to.
Fall to Winter
The last of the pumpkins are roasted,
and the gourds and corn decorations are fed to the chickens.
The garden is dark and bare…
but not for long.
Fresh pine, pine cones, and touches of red.
I feel like I’m waiting around for something to happen, Nov and Dec are the hardest months, cold, dark and wet. Roll on Spring.
Maybe that should read roll on the string…
Love it….I sure miss the warm sunshine! but I will try not to whine through the Winter! 🙂
Can’t wait to see what you’re going to create to brighten our December.
I have been digging in boxes all day, working on my “look” for this Christmas.
I have been pulling out less and less each year….think white, brown, nature….touches of red. That’s all the hints…for tonight!
I send the Little One on a walk with her Grandad this morning, with a plastic bag for gathering pinecones…
They brought it home, full to the brim.
There’s decorating to be done! 😀
:), I love to use the pinecones from my back woods! Isn’t it fun to send the little one out for treasures!
Our gardens may be dark and bare but this is the time of the year when my house glows and sparkles inside.
Perfect! Love this–and might I say, your house is so beautiful!
Thank you so much!
If anything, blogging has highlighted the differences in our seasonal experiences. We are still experiencing very warm weather in Southern California. I know that we benefit in many ways, but it is odd to be in autumn and yet hardly know it. I do wonder what it wold be like to have REAL seasons…and I’m not kidding!
I threaten to move to a more mild climate….you never know!
