Mums and Pumpkins and Gourds….Oh MY!!

Yesterday I went to my FAVORITE nursery, Hillermann’s Nursery in Washington, MO. I got Mums, Cornstalks, Pumpkins and other cool looking gourds to decorate the front of our house.

Take a look at why this is my favorite nursery!

They have MUMS in EVERY variety and color as far as the eye can see!

This family greets you as you enter the nursery!

Aren’t these GORGEOUS!!! I LOVE the pink and yellow colors!!!

I didn’t get any because they are early blooming mums, so they are close to being done, and I forgot to get the name- but aren’t they pretty?

This gorgeous lady keeps an eye on everything! LOL

They have a great Hay Maze for the kiddo’s to run thru.


Here’s a sneak at what all I brought home.

The sun was still in my front yard, so the pictures aren’t great.

Aren’t the mums gorgeous? Since I’m a memeber of their Garden Rewards Club, I got these HUGE 10″ pots BUY 3 get 1 FREE!- making them $6.75 ea!! That’s cheaper than most other places AND these 10″ Mums are HUGE!!

Look at these GREAT gourds I found!!

I can’t wait to start working on it all today, The Bug Man got down my fall/Halloween bins for me last night.

I mixed up a batch of my favorite fall snack yesterday too!!

Nuts ‘N Corn

Mix equal amounts of Candy Corn and Salted Peanuts.

Shake in a ziplock bag, serve in a bowl.

Make LOTS, because it wont last long!!

    Cheryl, Thank you so much for your blog. You are so talented and artistic. Your blog is better than my subscription to Country Living. I have shown it to the girls at work and they love it, too. Thanks again, Terri.
