A Little Peek At This Christmas' Future DIY's! (and, this week's TFT party!)

I think this is a super fun time of year to start planning your Christmas Home! Especially with Hallmark's Countdown to Christmas (yes, I am an addict!) providing tons of Inspiration. Not to mention, that I am doing the Christmas decorations for my church, which are going to be off the charts gorgeous! Still SO DIY! What's not to love?! I wish I was as far ahead of many of last week's bloggers, who provided even more inspiration with their, already done posts of all things wonderfully beautiful and DIY for Christmas. Hae a look!

Fall Favorites (TFT Party)

Good morning, my friends. I'm going to have to keep it short and sweet today, I'm not sure if my power will stay on very long. I want to thank all of you, who left comments of support and added your prayers to mine last week, as we, here in Northern California navigated life with nearby fires and rolling power outages. I'm sorry I haven't had the time to respond to all your kind comments, but I did get to read them and am very grateful.

Yesterday evening, finally, brought some very welcome news...
. 🍂🍁🧡💛🧡🍁🍂
"The wind event proved to be much less than they thought. Our amazing firefighters kept the fire at bay and the increase was minimal. We are at 76,825 acres and 45% containment which is AMAZING!! 
Forever grateful for all your prayers and the hard work done to keep us safe and the damage minimal!"

With sincerest Gratitude, I'm sharing some faves from last week, sorry my part is not more complete this week, next week will be better! 
Happy Halloween!

Welcome!!Welcome! Welcome, to TFT blog link party. Aka Thursday Favorite Things blog hop link party for blog writers and blog readers! I hope you have all been enjoying the change of season. Unfortunately we are back in the 90's and are on high alert for the fires burning right now in Northern California. Sigh...

All Things Autumn & This Week's Thursday Favorite Thing Party

Good morning, friends. Well, it's finally happened...Autumn has arrived. Yes, even here in Northern California and I couldn't be happier. Even with all the fire scares, the power shutoffs, stocking the house for emergencies, I am abundantly grateful for cool, crisp air, fog that brings back that wonderful morning mist and humidity levels that so help all our firefighters... Grateful.  Happy to be baking, cooking soups and stews and all the wonderful things that come with this glorious Season. I've even needed my coat a couple of times. Simply blissful.
Here's a look at some of the Linkups that caught my eye from last week's party! If you missed it, check it out now, here.

Autumn/Fall DIYs to Help You Welcome the My Favorite Season!

Good morning! This has been what I've been doing. ) it's a serious thing for me! There isn't a day that goes by now when I'm not looking at the Fall Countdown! It was a very pleasant high 80's for a few days, but unfortunately mother nature took a turn on me and has been hitting us with mid '90s!!! No thank you.  I need sweater weather! I want to wear my flannel pajamas and feel so cold I need to pout my robe and socks on too!! I want o cook and bake and be grateful that I have warmed up the house with the oven. I think I live in the wrong part of our country! LOL  That's the kind of gal I am!
