...just can't get enough of my little white pumpkins...

...this morning was glorious...

...so after breakfast on my screened in porch...

...I grabbed one of my sweet little white pumpkins...

...and proceeded to let it pose all around the back yard...

...it was such fun play...

...I just couldn't stop snapping photos...

...this little guy was such a cooperative model...

...always looking adorable...

...have I mentioned how much I adore little white pumpkins...

...and their shadows...

...as I write this post...
...Alex the kitty is in this very spot...
...he looks just as comfortable on the chaise lounge as the little pumpkin...

...in one of the many lanterns hanging in my apricot tree...

...looking perfect in the little window box...

...or on top of another bird house...

...perfectly balanced on the watering can handle...

...and perfectly shaped for the heart that hangs on my fence...

...sitting on top of some of my Red Wing collection...

..posing with some dusty Ball jars that have votives inside...

...and then finally joining many other little pumpkins...
...in an ironstone soup toureen...
...it has been quite a busy day of play...

...'Abundance' is the title of this little work of art...

"Whatever we are waiting for - peace of mind, contentment, grace, the inner awareness of simple abundance - it will surely come to us, but only when we are ready to receive it with an open and grateful heart." - Sarah Ban Breathnach

...autumn love...

...sunflowers and white pumpkins...
...equal October happiness...

...a strong flower...
...that continues to give joy as it ages...

...always ready for a quick pose for the camera...

...Trader Joe's has wonderful bouquets...
...this one contained three sunflowers...

...along with some evergreen...
...and lovely spiky orange blooms...

...this little painting is called 'Sunflower Beauty'...

...and this little work of art is called 'Signs of Fall'...

...little white pumpkins sit in my kitchen window...

...this one was captured at my favorite shop 'Bloom'...

...sharing my love of white pumpkins...

...little white pumpkins were in our market this week...

...they're the perfect element for fall decorating...
...in our small white cottage...

...cute from every angle...

...they were moved to every corner of our home...
...looking for good light...
...for the perfect shot...

...on this old chippy white cupboard...
...nine little white pumpkins sit in a line...

...perfectly behaved...
...just waiting for me to snap their photo...
...sigh...

...of course, the reality is...
...we are still having 99 degree temperatures...
...fall is still a little wait for us...

...but a girl can hope...

...and play...

...and play some more...

...pure happiness...
