Even the wormy apples look pretty hanging on the neighbor's trees.
This is what I bought. White wool. I am going to make a shawl for a grieving friend. I must finish my mama's shawl first (just about done!) and then I'll pray for Shari while I knit her a warm shiver-protector.
Bill brought me flowers for my birthday! They smell SO GOOD! He's a darling lamb.
He gave me a balloon, too. Aw! Tomorrow I am going to eat cupcakes for breakfast and party all day with Sam and Plum Cake. Kelli and Millie might come for lunch and maybe Christie and James, too!
I might even put my clown nose on for Sam.
I hope my birthday is a good day for YOU, too! LOL!

Your roses are gorgeous!! I'm glad you are having a happy birthday.
Yes, those are Fall crocus
( Colchicum Autumnale). I believe they put out leaves in Spring and flowers in the Fall.
Love your fall photos. I agree that fall is for hoofing around (before it gets snowy and cold). I really like crab apples too. They are so stunning. If I had a crab apple tree, I would snip branches and put them in a fall arrangement.
Happy, happy, happy Birthday dear Lady! I'm glad Bill is giving you the royal treatment!
I know what you mean about walking taking up so much time! Time we could be reading or drawing! But I'm also glad when I do finally get myself outside. Not that I do much walking (I'm on my feet all day!) but just outside to enjoy the fresh air. Pistachio hasn't been out of the shed for a long time. It would probably be a good idea!
Wow! That's a lot of yarn! Pretty colors! I think you made a good choice.
I enjoyed the crab apples.
You share a birthday with my hubby, so it's easy to remember! (Though I don't think we'll have much use for birthdays in Heaven. Just forever-ness with Jesus!)
Enjoy that family! :)
Happy birthday! Such beautiful autumn photos. I could really feel it! You're right about walking in September. It's just the right temperature and there's so much lovely colour. Oh those yarns!! Enjoy your day tomorrow with your family. X
Happy birthday to you, PomPm! Hope it is a wonderful day and you are pampered and well loved.
Love those crab apples. And yarn. Sweet of you to knit a comfort shawl.
Beautiful photos of Autumn...
I'm glad you are a reluctant walker. Me too.
-grin-
-sigh- But I so need to be a constant walker. :-)

Happy birthday, MomPom! I wish we could be celebrating with you today!
Have a happy day, I hope Sam likes the clown nose. :) I like the red on crabapples too. They looks so pretty. Your flowers are nice too.
I am glad you are having lots of blue skies.
Happy Birthday!!!! I hope you had a wonderful time. Those flowers are indeed autumn crocuses, they are properly called colchicums, and are also called naked ladies because the leaves come in spring and the flowers come in autumn with no leaves! xx
Happy birthday - many happy returns - lovely flowers from your Bill. Blessings to you and your family as you celebrate, Betty x
Happy Birthday a day late. Those roses are beautiful. Hope you enjoyed your cupcake this morning. : )
Wow what gorgeous pictures.
I like getting out to take a walk in any weather. : )
Oh my all the beautiful wool. Amazing colors. Love it all.
Happy birthday! What a lovely blog you have. I love your fun, colorful page and all the great pictures... :)
First of all...Happy Birthday! Your beautiful pictures catch a sign of Fall that we don't see down here. Thanks for taking us on your stroll.
Happy Birthday PomPom!!!!!!! Many blessings on you!!!! I agree about crab apples. They are so beautiful and I always think, "What can I do with these?!!!!" -- but of course no time for jelly or anything. Reading a wonderful book called "Eyes Wide Open" all about Beauty. The author talks about beauty creating wonder in us which, as a Christian, is then meant to lead us to worship/praise of God. This is so true!!!! And then those crab apples are justified in their gorgeous, non-useful existence -- praise of God just for their beauty.
Happy Belated Birthday. So sorry I missed posting a comment on your birthday. i've been down with a nasty cold and couldn't even finish commenting on everyone's blogs but I'm feeling a bit better today.
Wow, what a nice bouquet of roses.
My crabapples are still on my tree and I haven't had time to make crabapple jelly yet.
Hugs,
JB
. . . . .also reminds me of the song "Come September"
Happy Birthday! I hope you have a great celebration. Love your photos of fall. Kit
I like what Frances said. Crabapples could be the symbol of the season!
Dear Pom! Happy belated birthday! It looks like you had a very joyous occasion :) I want to see the clown nose, please??? :) I looked longingly at all that wonderful yarn, and predicted you would overlook the earth tones and the blues, and buy an orange, yellow, or red. And then ... you got white!!! I was surprised. Your friend will love her shawl. Well, happy birthday. The flowers from your hubby are wonderful. Enjoy for many days.
