ThE BeSt ThiNgs In LiFe FoR FreE...WeLL aLmOst..

Mike and I went shopping on monday for new shoes for him..and we went to walmart!! I love that store...anyway they had these huge mums for $6 each..couldn't pass that up..and I wanted some "fall" decorating...so here they are along with my beautiful, glorious orange pumpkins from my garden!!!
I am so happy..This is the first time I have actually been able to grow these little babies and I got two this year..we are digging up a portion of our landscaping/garden area in the front yard for the squash family...I can't wait..
Oh I love these mums and their glorious colors...

Well the hops will probably be gone this weekend..it is harvest time..I am going to miss their beauty till next spring...we have a tomato eating racoon..so we are having to put up an electric fence in hopes she stays away from them..but we turn it off during the day for our other animals..and she is only eating the ripe ones and they are our huge tomatoes...I can't blame her..they are wonderful and oh so sweet!!
I pulled out my fall dessert plates..I got the ones on the left many years ago for free!!! I love them!!! and paid very little for the other ones..:)
okay did up 4 more purses yesterday.the moon on the upper left one glows in the dark..I used a glow in the dark thread..;) have 3 more to do today and then onto assembling the ones that are ready..picking up more supplys tomorrow...have a wonderful thursday..;)

  3. Love those mums, I think I will
    head to Walmart to get some..I
    usually put some in a wooden wheelbarrow, stand my scarecrow next to it, and put a pumpkin by him...Looks good until I forget to water the mums! Love your purses, you sure are working hard!
