My husband was gone this week end he went on a retreat with the men at our church. So you may be wondering what I did!! Well I had the two grandson's the first night and then~~~~ The second night I nested! That is the word I use when I change furniture around, and redo somethings around the house. My poor husband will probable never leave again. I changed every room in the house except our 3 grandchildrens play room. I put out all the fall things and the grandson's help with some of the Halloween things the first night while they watch Max and Ruby's Halloween show. I love to nest I don't get to do it very often.

The first night after I but the younger boy to bed Max and I were watching T.V not much was going on and all of the sudden Max say's this~~~ I know lets say a prayer~~~ my heart was touched, he proceeded to tell me the things he wanted us to pray for. I hope that all 3 of my grandchildren will grow up knowing that they need prayers in there life everyday!

Thank-you for letting me share about my weekend. I hope to have pictures for you tomorrow so I hope you will come back.

My computer is running so slow that I think I need to clean it up a bit. That may take awhile so I will do all of my chores first. You know how that can be, plan to be on the computer a few minutes and then before you know it's time to go to bed. I keep changing my banner because I'm have problems with the pictures that I have been using. I just don't want to download anything on my computer for awhile. I just have a funny feeling~~~~~

I wanted to remind you to stop by Spiritual Sundays today or anyday for that matter. I'm sure you will enjoy all the different post.

Yesterday when I read Charlotte's blog she had mentioned another blog to go and read. Well like every Thursday I'm so busy with everything that I don't get to blog much so I thought to myself that I will get to it later. I wish I would of read it first thing. It's a quote from Ben Stein that I have never read. Just like Charlotte said I wish all of America could read this article. So please take a couple of minutes to yourself and read this article.


Thank-you




A Garden Flag

Posted by Ginger~~Enchanting Cottage



This Flag is all the decorating I have done so far. My grandson just loves this flag, I am sure the other two will love it just as much once they get a little older. It's kinda funny how someones decorating changes after having grandchildren. Do you have special something you put out for your grandchildren?

I saw this image and thought it was so funny! I thought everyone would enjoy it! If you visit my Sunday blog I ask for prayers for our grandson thank-you so much, he is home now he spent two days in the hospital and is doing much better now. He is glad to be home with his younger brother.
Have a great day

Some of my Favorite Things

Posted by Ginger~~Enchanting Cottage


This is a Japanese Anemone I adore this plant it's a Perennial and low maintenance I look forward to it blooming every year. This has been in my garden for about 8 years.



This is my favorite flag. I had one just like it in the bigger flag but I guess I missed placed it because it is no where to be found.( that's a shock me miss place something)



I just love my little table. It's not all that comfortable but the looks make up for it.



We just put this swing up today. My sister in law gave this to us about 4 or so months ago and
we just now put it up. That was so nice of her to give it to us. She's not one to part with many things. I plan to paint it I'm not sure white or black but I'm going to wait until next spring. I thought black with white pillows and cushion would be pretty.



I just love this fountain I have shown you before. The water make such a nice sound that we can hear in the house as well as outside.As you can see the ivy is growing pretty fast.


And of course the famous snail vine. I like how it drops down threw the patio cover


And my fairy I don't talk about him very often. I have had him now for about
7 years or so. He makes me smile when I walk past him.




OH!!!! And of course my granddaughter is by far my favorite of all!






The Cottage of The Month

Posted by Ginger~~Enchanting Cottage

All I can say is WOW! This is by far one of the most beautiful cottages of the month that I have seen. It is just breath taking. I would have to say that I love all of the cottages of the month but this one just touches my heart. Jennifer does just an amazing job at this every month. She is so busy working on her own home and still finds time to bring us the Cottage of the Month.
I hope you enjoy this cottage as much as I did.

Thank-you Jennifer


Spending Diet

Posted by Ginger~~Enchanting Cottage


This is such a hard time for so many people these days. The house right across the street from us is now being foreclosed. It is so sad to see the grass die, and the weeds take over. There were about five foreclosures in our neighborhood at one time. I truly hope who ever buys these homes take care of them.
I decided to put myself on a spending diet. I am not one to just go crazy all the time and go shopping but I do like to pick up a few things here and there. I think that most of my spending goes to my garden, so this fall I won't be buying any bulbs ( so sad ) or other fun things for my garden. I have lots of things that will pop up from the previous years that I have planted. So more than likely I won't be posting about anything new, or I won't be showing any pictures of great new items that I have bought. If I do then you know I went off my spending diet. I will be cooking more than normal and making my husbands lunch more often than I do.
My apple tree is full of apples, I hope to can some apples with cinnamon this weekend. The apples taste so yummy heated up and put it on vanilla ice cream.
Mmmmm good!
