Happy September!!
I am so happy to wake up to a new month. My thought was, " Oh September how I love thee!
I love September because:
Fewer and fewer over 100 degree days.
Zinnias are blooming fireworks and the mums are starting to show up everywhere I go.
Leaves start falling bit by bit.
We have all kinds of migrating birds coming through, and then the flickers return home. I do miss those woodpeckers and the little holes they leave on the ground because they just love to eat ants.
Maybe a beach trip, because the crowds are all gone.
Everywhere I walk will be surprises in the trees and in the sky and on the ground. It will become cool enough to get my field of dreams put to bed, my flowerbeds all cleaned and maybe some mums and bulbs to be planted for the spring. The house will be decorated with oranges and browns and yellows. The smells of baking apples and pies and cookies. Maybe some rain will come our way. Lots of wonderful things to think about when September shows up. The walks in the morning are just glorious. With the smell of fall in the air.
Have a lovely day,
~Kim~

september always brings a feeling of 'hope' to texas, too - cooler temps and maybe some rain to green things up a bit!
Yippee!! September is here.!!
Love this post, and I love the new background, and the pictures, and the quote.... gee, I love everything about this post!
I hope it cools down there for you a bit too. No matter, get those candles glowing and get that decorating going :)

Hi Kim: I'm visiting from Kerin's. You really have a beautiful blog and I love all that you have planned for fall. Your photos are wonderful , and I leave an open invitation to you to visit the Cottage anytime. I will return..Happy Monday..Judy
Kim, you have a way of looking at things...a perspective unlike anyone else I know. I love reading your posts. Welcome, September! Indeed!!! xo
Totally agree! HAPPY SEPTEMBER!
Beginning of a wonderful season indeed...and love all your gorgeous photos!!
Yay for September! She's so pretty and gentle, too!
I love the air around here. It's just right!
I can't wait to see pictures of all your fall doings. I hope you DO go to the beach and soak up those lovely views for me!
You're so right! Walks in September are glorious!
Happy Labor Day! Our girls and their families are coming for a bbq after all. Yay for grands!
Yay for September!! I can't wait for October! Haha.
Hi Kim, I love fall too-all the harvest decorations. I've got to get mine out today. Your photos are so beautiful as always. Hope you have a blessed day!

Well that makes me want to welcome fall, but yesterday at the lake I was still wanting summer.
I keep hoping for those fewer hot days but they're nowhere in sight yet. You're the Texas of CA, we're the Texas of SC. LOL It's so hot today that I almost didn't take Tuck for his morning walk. And he almost didn't want to go. Ha! It was so nice having a Monday off from school. This year we started back on a Monday instead of a Wednesday and I think it messed with all of us. :)
Yea, September is already here and we still have very high humidity today. But you're right, I love September too but I wish the days weren't getting shorter. I love walking in the morning too and I'm grateful for cooler temperatures. There was lots of fog this morning.
I'm cleaning flower beds and thinking how I should change some. The perennials are getting over crowded.
I work without break for most of the day and now I'm ready for a nice shower and my PJs.
Hugs,
JB
I'm happy you are welcoming September. Sorry but I am not. I do love fall but it's what comes after it that I hate :)
Hugs,
Lauren
Happy September! Your white rockers looks so perfect with the pumpkins and sunflowers
I, too, love September! September brings cooler weather, DD's birthday and anniversary, a beach trip (2 weeks this time! woo hoo!) ... I love September, yes I do!
I'm so looking forward to cooler weather! It's coming, bit by bit--but the desert is just hot.
I am sooooo excited for fall and cooler temperatures!! But here at the jersey shore it has been really hot as well!!
Kim, you always have the best pumpkins and this year is no exception!! And you are always the first person to really get me into the autumn mood!! Now....to go and get my pumpkins!!
OH! What a lovely blog and you are too. I so enjoyed your blog today.
Yes Kim, I would have to agree. September is always a welcome month. Though October, I think, is my most favorite month of all! Have a great weekend.
Your beautiful fall photos make me READY to welcome the next season! Visiting from Kerin's... blessings ~ tanna
Beautiful thoughts and photos. We sure have been enjoying the cooler mornings on our walks. Still heats up in the day, but you can feel that coolness coming very late at night, and early morning. It gives me hope FALL is just around the corner. Now if we could just get some rain! Thanks for visiting my blog. :) Happy weekend to you!!
I feel the same way about the fall I ,love it , fresh cool mornings and nights with sunny days and cool breezes , the smell of wood smoke in the air and baking apple pies , all the colours oh my how wonderful ! Thanks for sharing, Have a good day !
