My Autumn Decor

What a wonderful day I had yesterday! As you may have read, it was my birthday...and it was perfect! My kids were awesome ALL DAY LONG, we had a fantastic dinner at one of my favorite restaurants, and my husband bought me the coolest gift...

Have you heard of the Bloggie? It's the neatest little video camera ever...it has 4 hours of recording time, it's super-little and it has a touch screen...I LOVE it. I've always been the Mom dragging around the super-huge video camera at all of the kids' functions...the video camera that's battery no longer holds a charge...the video camera with the little cassettes...you know the one...but no longer...yay!!! And the best part about it is that it has a built-in USB plug that you just stick in your computer and presto, you're done - video uploaded...perfect! Maybe I'll even do some video tutorials with it...that would be cool...it is called the Bloggie after all...

NOW, on to some autumn decor! I snapped these photos of my living/dining room on Wednesday...this is what the rooms look like now - but I'm getting so much awesome inspiration at the linky party that I may be changing up my accessories...

Here is the view of our dining room from our living room...

Our living room couch...

Our entryway table...

The buffet table in our dining room...that awesome banner is from funky shique on etsy

I love all of these candle holders and silver platters...

My little acorns & white pumpkins...

And my favorite of all...the view from my living room...we have the biggest, fullest Maple tree in our front yard...the leaves turn the most beautiful yellow...I'll be so sad when they all fall...

What's your favorite part of autumn? Do you love the colors? The cooler temperatures? The food? The fact that Christmas is just right around the corner? How about the fact that we're one season closer to summer?
