Seasons of the Cottage

So a few weeks ago I wrote about a change in the wind, that autumn was fast approaching. For those of you who may not pay too close attention to a calendar or who are not married to a Fall-fanatic, you may not have noticed that autumn has officially started as of last Monday. Personally I like to hold off totally embracing the season till October 1st. But I cannot deny the signs of fall surrounding me. To embrace the season, the Cottage (our home) has been embellished with all things autumnal. There are red, yellow and orange leaf garlands adorning the windows. A festive wreath welcomes you at the door, along with a little pumpkin sign by the doorbell. And here and there are little pumpkins and gourds and ghosts. The newest addition to our fall decorations is a large pumpkin pillow, complete with fabric leaves, stem, and beaded vines. As we welcome autumn, we welcome you to come and visit the autumnal Cottage!
