This weekend I started putting away all my outdoor décor that I used during the summer months and have been raking and cleaning up the yard. I always love this time of year- time to put away the summer outdoor décor and put out pumpkins, mums and other beautiful seasonal decorations that make our home so festive. Once the fall season passes, I’ll make sure that all of the outdoor décor is brought into the garage and stored for the winter, so that it doesn’t have to be exposed to the harsh elements of the months ahead. I love decorating, and that includes both indoors and out.  My neighbors and I always get together and buy outdoor décor for the holiday season, and our entire neighborhood participates in a beautiful Christmas theme. I always enjoy doing it, and on the last night of the season we usually have a party for everyone in the neighborhood and celebrate another year of friendship. I’m happy to live in this neighborhood where everyone gets along, and we never have problems with each other. Every neighborhood should be so lucky.
