Happy Monday!!

Sneak preview tablescape for when it is officially Fall,

just had to play some!!  lol

Happy Monday Sweet Friends,

Hope you had a wonderful weekend.

Ours was very good,  did some of my Fall decorating,

spent Friday evening with Dee and Jerry, and hubby

and Jerry got the light in the kitchen changed out,

  and what a difference.......Whoever lived there before

 must have never cooked in there is all I can say!!

They also put in a fan over the bed, which was a

bit of a challenge,  but they finally got it done

 without losing life or limb!!!  lol

Saturday I actually got to visit some blogs, since

hubby slept in,  then we had a nice leisurely

breakfast and just hung out and yakked awhile,

did the lawn,  then ran to walmart in the evening,

to get some stuff for Sunday afternoon and just

had some fun looking around.  Got a new Fall

jar candle "pumpkin spice" and it smells so good,

and some Fall candy for a dish on my coffee table.

Sunday was church, and a very nice service where

 they honored our policemen, firemen and paramedics

in the community.  Such a positive thing to do on

such a dark day of rememberance................

then a quick trip to Publix to get shrimp (did you know 

they will steam it for you for free with whatever seasoning 

you want - we got lemon herb this time, and it was very

 good), love that cause I hate smelling up the house! lol

then we got our  fav smoothie, a short nap,  then Scott 

and Megan came over in the mid afternoon and we got to

 see all their pics from their trip to KeyWest (they even brought

 us some of places where we lived or were important to us),

we talked about ol times when we used to live there and

 then visited there when Scott was a lil boy!

  What a fun trip down memory lane..............

Then we had a nice shrimp dinner and just a lot of fun

eating, talking and laughing, the time just flew by, but it

 was lovely and left us wanting more!!

After they left we got to watch some of the broadcasts about 

September 11th............. It is a sad day to remember,  but I am 

thrilled by the way it brings out the love and unity of our country.

  The stories are just so amazing.

It reminded of an email I got once, that was talking

 about those that survived 9-11, and the reasons why.

One man stopped to get donuts, another one got a blister

from new shoes and had to stop for a band-aid,  another

one took his child to her first day of school,  another 

missed the bus.......................

small interruptions...........but life saving interruptions!!

Makes me look at interruptions or lil annoyances

in a whole nother way!!!!  How bout you????

Sometimes now,   hubby and I will say, wonder what

the Lord might be sparing us from, with this interruption.

I am so enjoying that our mornings are starting to cool
 off ever so slowly,  but it is a start.........lol

Looking forward to finishing my Fall decorating, not
 too much more to go,  but just haven't had time to
 work on it yet today,  but maybe once

I finish this post,  I will.................

So glad you stopped by,

always great to hear from you,

Enjoy your evening with your family,

friends, and/or furry buddies.............

Love,  Hugs,

and Fall decorating Blessings,

Nellie
