JOY IN AUTUMN


This is such a beautiful time of year.

Bright skies,

cool breezes,

the changing of leaves,

nippy evenings,

afghans and coffee,

sweet candles scents and touches of Autumn in the den.


Baskets,

pinecones,

a swan,

pumpkin,

and birds...


Warm rays of sunshine fill the room,






Sweet candle scents...




The sun begins to set,

and evening shadows begin to fall.


We have eaten dinner,
picked out a movie and are looking forward to a quiet night.

Joy fills the soul as we enjoy these touches of Autumn.


Hope your day has been wonderful and your evening is even better!
I have an afghan and am making more coffee...
Blessings,
Cindy

Hope you'll hop over for AMAZE ME MONDAY!

    Your den is lovely in the different times of the day. I love Autumn weather, it does make me very sleepy though. I have brought out extra blankets to snuggle under and am back to drinking hot tea in place of iced tea.
    Have a good evening, Cindy

    Oh, I love swans! And I love the pillows you have on your red sofa. I have red sofas so I'm always looking for decorating ideas! You have some pretty Fall touches for your living room! Candles are always so welcoming! Hugs!

    What a wonderfully cozy room, Cindy!! I love all your fall touches! I like the way you captured the sunlight as it progressed through the day; I've always thought the quality of the sunlight is so perfect during this time of the year. I love your curtains and your pretty furniture -- thanks for sharing. :)

    I feel as though I just spent a beautiful day in that room. Love the red sofa and when my current red sofa must be replaced, it will be another red one for us. Your candles and birds and fall decor are so warm and inviting. Thanks for sharing with us, saw your link at Cozy Little House and had to visit.

    Your living room looks so cozy for Fall. We've been enjoying nice weather lately too. Wish we could bottle this time of year up for the days in Winter that aren't so nice!
