Well, this morning we knocked down summer –
Front Door Dressed Up For Summer
and magically turned into “Fall”
Front Door with Its Fall Finery
We are so fortunate to live in Vermont to get to experience all the seasons. Come and visit and see for yourself how gorgeous it truly is.
Today I arranged our holiday arrangements for the tables in readiness for our guests arriving Christmas Eve.
Arrangements at the Ready
For the first time, last evening I went to a gingerbread house-making party. I will tell you that I am artistically challenged. All I really wanted to accomplish was the roof – which I think came out pretty cool. The rest, well you be the judge!!!!!!!!!
Chris's Version of Gingerbread House!!
P.S. Those are trees with icing and a stone wall (just in case you couldn’t figure out what on earth they were)!!
Wreaths Awaiting
Thought you’d like to see what our dining room looked like this morning. All our fresh balsam wreaths, adorned with their beautiful red bows, are awaiting for Ted to hang them on all our front windows, gates, etc. Our guests actually enjoyed having breakfast surrounded by the wreaths and that great “fresh greens” aroma.
We are in the throes of decking out all our halls in anticipation of our guests’ arrival and the holiday open house tours this weekend. We will keep showing you photos of our decorations, etc.
Also, don’t forget Ormsby Hill gift certificates for the holiday season – could there be a better gift??????
In a manner of hours, we went from our front door being decorated for summer into glorious fall.
After a very rainy yesterday – and yes, we desperately needed the rain – it is absolutely a gorgeous fall day today and the forecast for the week is fabulous. Cool evenings, warm days, color in them there hills – what more could you ask for – Fall In Vermont!!!!!!!!!!
