Is it Fall Yet?????

This year I have been DYING for fall to get here! Normally I am the one walking through Target saying "I can't believe they are ALREADY putting stuff out for fall!" This year is different though. I am now the one walking through Target saying "Why in the world are they taking SO LONG to put out the fall stuff???" I guess I am having withdrawals since I haven't been able to decorate for this fun season for TWO YEARS!
I originally told myself that I would wait until September 1 to start my fall decorating... but I couldn't wait that long even. I reasoned that we are the last house on the street and no one would see it but me and 3 days early was not a big deal because of the joy it would bring to my heart:) And it did bring lots of joy. After two LONG trips to Hobby Lobby and a productive trip to Canton my front porch has been transformed!
Here are a few pics of it all and since it is now after September 1 no one can say I am too early:)

See, don't you just want to come sit on my porch??


I just wrapped some berry sprays around the metal branches, hung some wood acorns and made some glittery black birds and tah-dah!

And of course, the best decoration of all...

No, I have not become a "longhorn fan" ok. But I can't deny that the burnt orange matches all of my fall decorations perfectly.

Everything looks so cute - I love how the tree turned out! I love Belle as an accessory - maybe she could wear OU gear for Christmas - Blake wouldn't mind at all, right?
