I like your wagon full of flowers. Your pumpkin snowman fits in with the season. Great pictures.

"showman"... very clever! The only downfall with this project is... I had taken a rod through each piece to keep it together and can you guess what happened? First the head fell directly into the middle pumpkin then those two plummeted down into the bottom pumpkin! I forgot to seal the holes! It lasted JUST long enough for Halloween, then poof! all swallowed up! Rotten pumpkin is about the worst stench I've ever smelled! Yuck!
As for the cat... She cooperated with me for about 2.4 seconds! Just long enough for me to snap a pic!
Thanks for the compliments
Deborah

What a wonderful seasonal display, Deborah!
Very festive. 
 I always wondered how long the stacked pumpkins would last,
not very long at all, I guess - pity, it is just adorable!

 Yeah, she's definitely got that "I'm outta here" look in her eye.

The trick is either NOT to puncture the skin OR to take caulk and plug around the rod so as to 'seal' the perforation. Anyhow... it was cute while it lasted!

Thank you... I've heard a lot of compliments from people passing by... I think when Summer is finally over, here in Florida, ORANGE is just such a nice change... I would have dressed the cat in orange if she would have let me! Ha!

I thoroughly enjoyed all photos. Lovely colours, and that gorgeous cat! Your autumn door decoration reminds me I must try and find my advent stuff.

Samatha, the cat, adopted me about 9 weeks ago! She came to me looking about 8 weeks pregnant, so I prepared to welcome in the kittys... But nothing came! I find out that she's already been clipped and is just FAT! She's been just adorable to have as my outdoor friend...
