Hello Sweet Friends,
So did you get a lil rested up yesterday?
Hope so, cause if you had a lot going
on bet you needed it.
I was so happy not to have anything I
actually had to do yesterday, even tho,
I got up early. I did get my Thankful
Thursday blog post finished, and up-
loaded some pics for 2 other upcoming
posts, because they are still from Fall,
and trying to get them in before
December, lol. but that was fun work.
and later in the day hubby and I put up
the Christmas tree, but haven't decorated
it yet, as I haven't brought out the Christ-
mas decorations yet, cause don't want to
tear the house all up until after Dee goes
home on Monday, and it will give me
something to look forward to..................

after she goes..........so glad she will be
back today and get to stay until Monday.
So we will get a lil one on one time with
her hopefully.
We watched our first Christmas movie
last night and hubby was sweet and
ran out and got us some eggnog....yum!
That is a family tradition for us when
we start our Christmas decorating,
that and Christmas music........
Am showing you another Birthday
table today, but it could just be a Fall
table, as well. Did this table for my
daughter-in-love.

Since we celebrated her birthday the
night before Thanksgiving, and we are
not into a lot of stress, I used paper
goods again. I had these plates and
leaf napkins leftover from Dee and
Jerry's wedding reception 4 yrs. ago,
and the pumpkin napkins leftover
from last Fall, so thought they made
a nice combo.
Used this silverware because it matches the
flowers on the napkins. and the white table-
cloth to give it a bit of elegance, and so it
didn't seem quite so Fallish.
moved our bench to the opposite side of
the table since we are the only ones who
get to sit on it, and also to make more
room for another chair since their are
7 adults this time rather than 5.
This is from the other end of the table

This tray with the white pumpkins did
reside on my coffee table, so I just
changed it up just a little to use as the
centerpiece on her table.
Seems like all my tables this year have had
pumpkins, leaves and candle light.
Like I have said before I like to use real
silverware and glasses, rather than plastic,
as it looks a bit nicer, and you never have to
worry about breakage or leaks like you do
with plastic ware and plastic cups.
These are Dixie living ware plates we got
at Sam's over 4 yrs. ago and they are very
sturdy, and you will probably see them
again sometime as I still have a ton of
them leftover.
A cocktail size napkins tucks
perfectly into the glasses. Love
these glasses they were a gift
from Dee and Jerry for Christmas
some years back, when I got my
shabby chic dishes. They are a
beautiful compliment to them.

Took out an oak candlestick and
replaced it with the cloth pumpkin
and then added the cream ceramic
pear on top. A find some years
back from Target.
Clear candle holders with an assortment
of beans. Love the look............
The tray already had gold mercury glass
candle cups that were purchased for
Dee and Jerry's reception as well. I think
they look so elegant and I use them well
every Fall and sometimes at Christmas
or New Years.
