Fall, Y'all!

I know everyone is waiting for my next decorating post. Today I got all the fall and Halloween stuff out. I was just going to use a few things here and there - but I've got a lot of really fun things and before long most of it was on display. Big round table in corner holds most of it - and some things under it!

I find that I use lots of string lights - everywhere! Adds a fun, festive touch. I even mix different styles and colors. The lights above are candy corn!

My entry was kept simple with just shiny glass pumpkins and glass vase with fall leaf branches. I love my red glass lamp with this arrangement. Happy fall, y'all!

Labor Day Weekend Show

Nothing keeps us from not showing up at Caddy's on summer holiday weekends ( okay, maybe work)! We get up and going early so we can beat the parking lot attendant and park for free! Also, to beat the crowd and enjoy the beach before it fills up.

Our beach camp was waiting! And the coffee was fresh and hot. Everyone ordered breakfast and visited while we waited to be served. After a short rain storm the weather turned into a beautiful beach day. And the gulf was perfect!

We had two tables this year. We had some newbies to the group:

Matt and Jessie and their three children! Good to see you guys!

Five month old baby Will

The water was the best part! So refreshing and crystal clear!

Caddy's supplies the beach loungers and umbrella's!

Many sand castles were made and destroyed!

We had a great time and can't wait to come back!

We left around noon, when the beach was starting to fill up. We still had plenty of time left in our day to do other things - like see a movie (The Butler) and watch FSU rout Pitt in its football season opener. Yes, it was pretty much a perfect day!
