Hmm, Scarecrow....

scarecrow is, essentially, a decoy. Traditionally, it is a human figure (or mannequin) dressed in old clothes and placed in fields by farmers to discourage birds such as crows or sparrows from disturbing and feeding on recently cast seed and growing crops.

Not so Scary!

 I wonder what the crows think about her?
Or any of the birds and wildlife in our yard for that matter.

 How about her....
scared yet?
I didn't think so!

 She looks cute though sticking her head out
of the mums though, huh?
Smiling at all who pass by her!

 Keeping her eye on the bounty of
pumpkins and gourds gathered in  the wheelbarrow.
Scaring the squirrels away....
Hopefully!

 How about him?
Do you feel
Welcomed in or Scared to enter?

Hopefully Welcomed!

Either way she will be here
Smiling at all who pass by!

Hope your having fun getting your 
Home ready for Fall!

Have a delightful day!
Thanks for stopping by!

He brings me Flowers!....

Sunflowers!

 and I put them in an old bottle we found....

 My guy had to drive out of town for his job
yesterday and he stopped at
farm stand  on his way Home
to get some of the season's last
Sweet Corn....

 and he thought I would like these too!

He was right!
Thanks honey!

I'm in Limbo....

I want to sit out here and enjoy the last days of Summer!
It has been such a miserably hot Summer season that
sitting outside for any amount of time just hasn't been 
enjoyable for me!  So now that the temps are a bit more
tolerable, this is where I want to be....

 reading a good book and enjoying a nice cold beverage.

 enjoying what's left, if anything, of our flower beds....

~But~
the cooler temps we've been having at night 
also makes me want to get my 
~Fall~ 
stuff out!

 but, is that rushing it a bit?
If I bring it out, that means
those cold temps will suddenly turn into....
well, I'm not ready to go there!

 This is what my back entry looked like last year....
I love decorating for Fall....

 Putting out a Fun Welcome Mat....

 And inviting in my 
~Guests~

I just need a little more inspiration!

How about you, are you getting your Fall on?
or 
Are in in Limbo like me?
