Signs of Autumn

Thank you to all who participated in show and tell and also for your sweet comments on my cameos. We are starting to see some signs of Autumn around here...

Guess what I found yesterday? The first pumpkin of the season! I will share how I displayed it next week.


Benjamin knows how much I love acorns and he brought me this one he found a few days ago.

Lastly, a special thank you to Phillip for giving my blog an Autumn look. :0)

~September~

We made ourselves a castle
Once after school was out;
We raked the leaves together
To wall it all about.

We made a winding pathway
Down to the school-yard gate.
And there we worked with might and main
Until the day grew late;

Until one bright star twinkled
Above the maple tree,
And lights shone down on village street
As far as we could see.

We planned that every recess
We'd come out there to play,
But in the night it blew so hard
Our castle blew away.
