~Happy 1st Day of Fall and Simple & Sweet Fridays # 238~

Happy 1st day of Fall!!
We're so excited that we got rain on Tuesday too!
The garden definitely needs it.
Decorating the house with lots of foliage from the garden.
I love the light green color from the eucalyptus leaves.
The cinderella pumpkin that we grew in the garden
 looks so pretty with lights on it!
I picked baby boo pumpkins and butternut squash from the garden  to display with the Fall wreath.
I added lights to our buffet with leaves and a wheat bundle.
Putting some refreshments out for a fun weekend.
I wanted to tell you it's my birthday on Friday!!
Our kids will all be home to celebrate my 65th!!
Where did the time go?
I made this wreath with peach and creme roses from Michael's, Love the colors.
I added eucalyptus sprigs and green berries.
I love how it turned out!
I love amaranth flowers for Fall arrangements.
I bought some plants last year but they never came up.
Red apples add a wonderful glow to a wooden bowl.
I put out my velvet pumpkins I made last year.
I thought some bling on them would be a special touch.
My whimsical birds on the candelabra with dried hydrangeas & lights make up a Fall vignette.



I love how simple the photo looks with just some silver eucalyptus.
I had to buy some pumpkin cream cheese muffins at Trader Joe's.
They are very tasty!
I made Pumpkin bread.
I bought the bakeware at Home Goods.
It looks like a magical carriage!
I found this recipe on pinterest and had to try it.

They were delicious!
Here's the recipe;
Apple Lattice Pie Baked in an Apple
Hope you like it!
I wanted to stamp and watercolor.
We are harvesting lots of different vegetables and fruits this year.
Here are a few!
Olives from our olive tree.


Eggplant
Zucchini
Tomatoes
Different Lettuce
Radicchio
Our Pomegranate Tree
We'll have lots this winter.
Broccoli
Grape Tomatoes
Of course, our pumpkins are still growing everywhere in the garden.
I wanted to show you we added a pumpkin 
in a pot in our front yard.
I just added the little pumpkins for color 
until the pumpkin grows!

~Celebrating New Year's Downtown San Diego and Simple & Sweet Fridays #150~


We celebrated New Year's in
downtown San Diego at a high-raise hotel.
It was so much fun seeing the view that night.
It was spectacular! 
The lights shining off the hotels made it seem as though we were in Wonderland.
We could see the the beautiful bay and the Coronado Bay Bridge.
The next morning it was just as beautiful.
San Diego is such a wonderful place to live.
The convention center was just across the street and 
you could see the tennis courts near the top of the building.

As I was looking out the window,
 the trolley was just crossing the water structure in the newly designed water pool.
The views out of our room were just breathtaking!




We had a great view of Coronado.
In the distant you could see the top of the famous 
Hotel Del Coronado.
All of our family were there to celebrate.
Our daughter Katie and her boyfriend, Harry from England.
Carly, Stan and Katie.
Carly's boyfriend, Justin took all the family photos.
 Thank you, Justin!!
Me, Katie, Carly and our son, Scott.
It was a memorable night.
San Diego is a wonderful place to celebrate the New Year 2015!!
