Happy Autumn!!!

Just wanted to wish you all a

Splendid AUTUMN!!!

 

I have to say this is my favorite time of the year...

I love the smells, the beautiful colors, the crisp cool air.

It's simply the very best time of the year in Indiana.

 

I do hope you're able to get out and enjoy this fun time of year at some point because before you know it it will be gone.

Autumn, Queen of Year

When the pumpkins are so yellow And the vines with grapes abound, When the melons are so mellow And the nuts fall to the ground; When persimmons lose their bitters, And the apples are so red; When we love to eat corn fritters Since the roasting ears have fled; When vacation days are over And the children go to school, They no longer play in clover, But much learn "Arithmos-rule," When weird Hallowe'en's most naughty elves With gnomes and sprites appear, While fat Thanksgiving fills the shelves - 'Tis AUTUMN, QUEEN OF YEAR     I also wanted to remind you about the Altered Headdress Challenge on the Altered Pages Blog....                           So far, nobody has entered the contest with only a few short days left...
