the weather is cooling
the evenings and early mornings are glorious
time to get dressed for the coming fall
listening to the sound of acorns falling
enjoying each other's company and a game of backgammon
looking forward to my favorite time of year
Blessings!

Mar how awesome your back porch looks, and that black wicker lounge is beckoning me to come lounge..ehehehe!!! Can't wait to sit there and take in all the colors and the smells of early fall...sigh!!!! There are so many things I'm still looking for in yard sales...I'm wanting to pass the two wingback chairs to Lee and find some arm chairs to replace them...I think they would be fun to refinish and perhaps cover...course they have to be a really good deal for me to be able to buy them! hehehehe
love ya,
Once again the charm and unique flavour you bring to your home amazes me. What a gift to be able to take all these elements and create an environment to savour. Fall is my time of year as well, wish I could crawl onto that lounger and just let time pass me by..
this all looks so homey...it looks just like a place you would live.....warm...comfortable...safe.
There's that wonderful screened in porch again. It's so alluring. Makes me want to sit a spell and talk about Jesus.
I love the old thermos bottles and the candle in a jar and the red and white striped rugs and so many more of the details you've used to create this most special of places.
Oh Mary.
What a ready canvas
for the light of Autumn
to splash and grace
....makes me smile
to think of you there
in that lovely spot
soaking in September
and knowing it will only
get lovelier after this.

now! Bumper crop.....
PELTING, I tell you!)

I have always LOVED your porch, Mary. if you found me on that lovely piece of furniture, would you let me stay?
I couldn't agree more...there is something for me so exciting about fall...the cool, crisp air...just so promising!! I to may end up on your porch!
everyone's welcome!! :)
Oh how I love your warm and cozy style Mar! I would love to sit on your porch with you and sip some hot chocolate and even try a game of backgammon. I love the fall season also and the cool nights and chilly mornings. I would especially like having your porch to step out onto with all of those welcoming and home sweet home colors. You are one classy and sweet friend!
Hope you have rested up since your art journaling workshop on Saturday. I can't wait to hear more about it.
Love ya bunches,

I just imagined myself sitting on your porch drinking coffee! It looks so inviting.But after the coffee we need to go in your art room and work(play).
Your porch looks amazing! I've been decorating for fall, too. But it's mind over matter because it's still mid-90s here. But does that stop me from wearing fall clothes?? NO IT DOES NOT!
i can see so many of my favorite childhood memories right there on your porch.....family, togetherness, happiness, love, coziness......and being able to sleep out there when the weather is cool!!!! happy weekend, sweetness!! xox, :))
Mary your porch is so inviting! Lovely!
LOVE this relaxing beautiful space!!! i could stay there for hours!!
slow down and enjoy a moment...isn't that so important!
Is this your porch??? Oh, I just love it...I want it!!! I was just asking the Lord to give me visions on what our place might look like one day, God willing we get to have one, and I could enjoy this type of place...wonderful.
I hope you are adjusting to your daughter being off at college and the empty nest...changes are such mixed blessings!!

Oh, Mar, how wonderful to see your house with it's dressings for fall.I can just imagine myself sitting there with you and maybe even Bevie and just talking talking talking about art and of course our favorite Subject, Jesus! It's so cozy and inviting and you will be able to see the leaves change (something we really don't get down here :(. I have also been thinking about that visual journaling that you do with some women of the church and my wheels are turning. I don't know if anything will come of it but thank you for your input and your inspiration! oxox
So many great ideas Mary. You have my dream house. I always love your style.
sweet & peaceful...my favorite time of the year also...just bought my cranberry candle...ummmm!
I love this porch setup! So inviting.
Oh Mary, I took a deep breath and could aomost feel myself sitting there chatting with you and quietly journaling. What fun we would have and of course we'd have to include Bevie! Love you both, Mollye
Mary,
