Fall Flowers

This weekend I got the chance to catch up with Mr. S as he lay in the lounge of their tour bus surrounding by their team/band mates and someone asked - is it fall at home? It hit me that Mr. S has been on the road for pretty much all of fall - from before it started to now, when the crisp mornings are showing signs that the frost is coming. He has missed the beautiful fall colours, those perfect days when there is a light chill in the air and the golden fall sun beams down and the amazing and cozy rainy days that makes staying snuggled up inside the perfect things to do.


So this week I wanted to post some of my photos from fall so that Mr. S and anyone else who is missing out can enjoy them.

First up are our fall flowers from Thanksgiving!
The local grocery store by the cottage has a pretty slim selection of flowers, so putting arrangements together for our celebrations can be a little tricky. But this year the options were perfect and I was able to pick up enough beautiful golden mums, cabbages and purples carnations for four arrangements and all for 20 bucks! A few weeks before for a family birthday party, Papa J has made me simple wood vases out of leftover timber and together, which worked perfectly for our thanksgiving table.

I just love these colours and textures together, and accented by a candle lit thanksgiving dinner, the cottage steamed up by delicious food and family packed all around, they could not have been more beautiful.
