The first day of fall is officially Tuesday September 22. It has been a hot summer in NC and I’m ready for fall. How about you?

Let’s have a Welcome Fall Day on September 22. Copy the button on my sidebar, tell your friends, post about something related to autumn/fall and come join the party on September 22. I’ll have Mr Linky set up and you can join in the celebration!

    I am a fairly new visitor. I don't even know which blog put me here the first time! I love your blog & since I have a thing for all that is blue, I know that I will find it here. Where did you find the pumpkin with the blue leaves? I am really envious of that! Even though I am from TN, I am not a lover of the color of orange. (Who in their right mind would choose orange for a school color? LOL)

    I will return...continue to enjoy your posts.

    You found a pumpkin to match your beloved blue and white! Yay, see, you CAN decorate for fall with those colors:>) Just lovely Rhondi.

    Thanks for leaving the comment! I have a whole lot to lose & thought if I made myself accountable on my blog, I might be more successful this time.

    Love the pumpkin idea. I think I might just have one to work with.

    Beautiful images from your home, Rhondi.
    I'll do my best to link up on Tuesday, but we're getting ready to sail off on holiday so I may not get there.

    Fall is here! ...almost! We are expecting another week of over 90 degree temps, so maybe we'll see fall next week. Love your yellow and blue fall decor! I can live with those colors better than I can with brown and orange, but of course, all fall colors are beautiful. I really enjoy your blue, white and yellow combination...just gorgeous!

    Blessings,
    Mary

    Rhodi, I'll be there! I'm just this weekend getting some fall touches around the house. It's a start at least. Love your table tableau with the pumpkin, apples, and fall flowers.
    I'm off to do more in my garden, but will post your button before I leave. Thanks for letting me know. ~ Sarah

    Hi Rhondi,

    Thank you for telling me about the Fall Tuesday. I will try to figure out how to link - last time I tried Mr. Linky it did not work.
    Your blog is beautiful and I love your blue and white with the fall colors. I am a blue and white girl and always like the way the blues look with yellows, oranges and reds. Your photographs are fabulous.
    Hope to see you Tuesday.
    Blessings,
    Erin

    Rhondi, I am so glad you came by and told me about the party. I have been having trouble with my blog roll (some of the blogs show up as a "feed", and yours is one of them). I've tried deleting those blogs, and then re-adding them with no luck. You have provided so much pretty Fall decor inspiration in this post. I'll be at the party! laurie

    Everything is so pretty . I agree with Sewconsult. I love everything blue. I am from Arkansas so I really love Razorback Red over Tenn. Orange. I'm kidding. This time of year I have football on the brain.LOL!

    Okay, my sweet chick, I'm in but not sure what I'll DOOOOO! Fall colors are my least favorite colors; I'm in love with spring colors. Hmmmm....let me think on it but I'll come up with something I'm sure.

    Grabbed the button to announce it. I should have one of these parties but I'm such a slacker...hah!

    Darling photos though, sugar.

    Hi Rhondi...thank you so much for the invitation. I will certainly join in! What fun.
    And...HOORAH..my camera is fixed. Apparently it was the battery and when I put in it to charge it...I did it wrong..as it is a universal charger. I even followed directions and had to call Maine and ask Sweetie Pie...and he straightened me out this morning. So ..all is well.
    Look for me Tuesday..I will be here...
    Hugs..and thanks!

    Hi, Rhondi, thank you for stopping by & for the invitation to your party. I'm afraid I already had a party scheduled for tomorrow too. My Beadboard Wallpaper party is tomorrow also! Hope you'll stop by & visit for some inspiration.

    And I'm having my own Fall party on Oct. 1, so feel free to join it as well.
