Autumn/Halloween Decorating :)

This was my feeble attempt at decorating my nightstand. It was all I could muster up as decorating goes!

The decorations my mom put out on the buffet in the dining room. I love how the paint in this light looks a nice, calm shade of gray, and nothing like the actual dinner mint green shade it really is.

I think I like this sign the best!

Not exactly sure what you call that. A wreath holder?

Ah, reflections...

Cute cat box.

I really like these pumpkins :)

Haunted house and Halloween globe.

This is our mantel in the living room... you can see the nice shade of light yellow my parents recently painted the walls :)

These signs are actually made of tin.

Okay, the moon head guy creeps me out a bit!

More of the creepy moon guy, and some figures of trick or treaters.

And last but not least... Teddy wondering what the heck I was doing!

Summer Garden

These are blooms from a hanging plant my mom has. I'm thinking it's a type of bleeding heart?

Another shot of the possible bleeding heart. The brick background is kind of annoying, but I can't properly blur it with my digital camera.



This bloom was on the ground, after a collision with Tabby's tail.

I was using these clovers to figure out camera functions.

This picture does not do this rose justice! The petals had a look of velvet, so pretty and soft it almost looked fake.

Granny Smith Apples.

I took this picture a few days too late. But there is still some beauty in it, even if it was dying.

This rose bush is my absolute favorite. The buds look yellow, and then they open up to this beautiful yellow-peachy pink bloom.

Another shot of the same rose.

Warm, yummy, ooey, gooey cookies, straight from the camp store. :)

Something Michigan is famous for, the White Pine.
