Tuesday Tidbits #243 I’m All In!

Hi Folks!

I have decided to accept the Autumn season. You all know how much we enjoy summer and our lake life here in Pennsylvania. I appreciate what Autumn brings: fall colors, cozy sweaters, and pumpkin beer. (You thought I would say Pumpkin Spice lattes, right?) 😃 The shorter days and cooler evenings mean campfires and smores! The smell of wood burning and watching the fire dance makes me smile.

We love a backyard fire!

Along with shorter days, this old gal can now go outside and watch a sunset because I am still awake!

Sunsets never get old!

I am lighting candles again and adding twinkling lights to fall garland on the mantle. You read that correctly. I have decorated the lakehouse with Fall Decor and purchased Mums for the outdoors. My moaning about Summer ending has ceased! I have jumped right in and I am knee-deep in Pumpkins! I’m all in! 😄

This is our dining room table centerpiece. I am happy to display the pumpkin tea cup! Our soon-to-be daughter-in-luv gifted it to me.
Our autumn cottage mantle.
It’s all cozy! My Mother’s chair sits by the fireplace my father built. Sweet Man’s deer sits above the mantle.
Our small cottage style kitchen did not escape fall touches! I added fall tea towels along with the fall table runner. Our table has been here since I was a little girl. The Italian Rooster pitchers love overlooking the kitchen. My late brother’s sketches of my parents still hang on the wall.
This was my Mother’s kitchen. There have been plenty of delicious meals cooked here!

Outdoor Decorations

We are enjoying our new outdoor Mums!
My Potting Bench did not escape from being decorated!

I lied about Pumpkin Spice Lattes… 😄

Even though I drink tea!

I painted the curvy witch last fall! It enjoys being displayed on the back patio!

Nature’s Way

Nature is also showing us that Fall is here.

The soybean fields are turning gold.
Some color is showing up on the lake.
Our favorite squash is at the Farmer’s Markets!

I pay attention to what God puts in front of me. Fall is here!

Lake Erie

Even though Fall has arrived we enjoyed a day at Lake Erie! It’s about 20 minutes north of us. It is such a delight to be so close to one of the Great Lakes!

It was quiet and still. It looked like the Caribbean!

I believe that’s all I have for you this week. My sister came in for an overnight, and we had lots of fun. Then, I had a lovely visit with a beautiful friend, my son’s soon-to-be mother-in-law. She and I have become quite close, and I enjoyed showing her all around our quaint little lake community here in Pennsylvania. I am a bit behind in reading some of your posts and hope to catch up this week with all of you!

Thank You!

As I always try to convey… we certainly appreciate all of you. Thank you for joining us for another Tuesday Tidbits.


We wish all of you a wonderful week ahead. Enjoy what this upcoming week brings to you. And whatever you have planned… make every day count and be thankful for your Blessings.
