Happy Saturday everyone. Today the weekend view is all about a birthday boy, babysitting, autumn & chilly mornings and grand dogs in the house.
Birthday Boy
We are celebrating my oldest son Ryan who is the birthday boy this week. He and his family went to the beach for the week and so we are celebrating this weekend with cake and a some birthday fun.
Grand dogs in the house
While Ry and his family have been enjoying some down time at the beach- we did a bit of grand dog watching for them. Taking the dogs on walks and giving them some extra treats was in order. Mimi helped me with my photoshoot yesterday- posing like a pro (aka sleeping) on the sofa.
Baby sitting Enzo
We also baby sat Enzo on Monday while his parents went out for a fun date. We brought a pool and sandbox and toys for him to play with and enjoyed taking him for a walk- which was actually funny because while we were walking with him, we noticed a car creeping up behind us and I turned and looked at it and it was my son and his wife driving slowly and capturing a snap of the first time Enzo had a babysitter. They & he did great and we enjoyed lots of laughs and fun.
Prettiest Garden Roses
My husband found the prettiest garden roses at our local Safeway store last week. They started out pretty bold and beautiful and opened up into these beauties. I am obsessed and now need to add them to the garden. Does anyone know the name of this incredible rose?
Autumn in the air
Autumn is in the air- sunny warm days with chilly mornings and crisp evenings out by the fire- I do love autumn and all the warm ambiance it brings. I am not a winter person at all- but am enjoying the start of cozy season. This year we have the sitting area by the new to us fountain and so, evening views also look like the greenhouse lit up beautifully too.
Coming your way
The first in our autumn series of decorating inspiration is coming your way tomorrow. I am joining my friends and sharing simple thrifted autumn touches. And in case you missed it- I shared 9 autumn porch decorating ideas here yesterday.
Happy weekend all.

The porch ideas are inspiring, but it is still too hot here for outside pumpkins. Hopefully soon I can begin. Inside is coming along and I’m excited for cooler weather.
