Welcome Fall

I'm sitting here at my desk with a few windows open and I can hear the rustling of the leaves blowing. It's an absolutely beautiful day. There is not a cloud in the sky. The sun is warm but I can feel just a hint of coolness in the breeze. 

Fall is here.

What I love about this time of year is the feeling of wanting all things cozy and warm. This month, sports schedules come to a rest, family dinners will once again be the norm, and cool, crisp evenings will allow us to cuddle up in our favorite quilts. 

I'll bring out the soup recipes once again and there will be plenty of opportunities for bonfires and s'mores. There will be football games to watch and birthdays to celebrate.

There is just something about this time of year that brings me to wanting all the comforts of home and being with the ones I love the most. 

I do welcome the days of Fall. 



I made the "Welcome Fall" using this technique.

Have a wonderful weekend!

  3. I too love fall and all of leaves changing colors. However, we will miss that this year as we moved to Louisiana and we have been informed that the leaves don't change color here...but thank goodness it has gotten cooler though.
    Loving your welcome fall sign. I like how you used white and is that brown? Lovely.

  6. Love your Welcome Fall sign! So pretty. I am very much looking forward to pulling out my soup recipes too! I was just thinking about that the other day. I think I'll be making our favorite pot roast soon too.
