My little piece of Fall

 I bought this tree at the American Women's Club Bazaar last week because it looked like what Fall is supposed to look like.  It is about 5 x 7 and cost me $10 which is amazing to me as you look more closely and realize how many teeny weeny little beads make the fall colored leaves and the trunk is all wire.

 So this is my enjoyment while reading about people going to Sky Top and picking apples, climbing trees, and going on hay rides!  I laughed at the Bazaar because in the hundreds of people there, I realized that a child was talking rather loudly and trying to get my attention-as it turned out, he was a classmate of Ashley's who had not gone to school that day but was shopping with his mommy.  I didn't recognize his mom but the little boy recognized me as Ashley's mommy-yes we do still stick out a little here.

 United Nations day is coming up soon at Brent so when I saw these for about $3 each at the grocery store with the Halloween stuff.  I just bought 2 since you can see that it is a little large for Ashley's head, but of course she wanted to try it on.

 Now you can see her face!  Will show the boys wearing them in the country parade in a couple of weeks with their American flag shirts!

 Here is my dining room table before I put my fall tree on it.  I bought these aqua and white pieces for myself, from Bev, for my birthday and wanted a yellow tablecloth to put them on.  I couldn't find one here so I bought this one while at home over the summer.  They show up much better on the yellow than on my other white cloth-I like these they are animals and shells that we dive with that I could keep! 

The fall tree won't be here long-Greg and I have been joking about getting the Christmas stuff out soon-it is already out in all the stores here-having been hearing the music in the mall for a whole MONTH already.  I think we will wait until at least after Halloween though!

Several posts ago-craziness here-I mentioned seeing an orange Christmas tree that Em and Jo could decorate with Auburn stuff-sorry girls I walked by the store again and some nut bought it!  I guess you won't be getting an orange tree after all!
