Goldenrod

Back in June I shared with you my little backyard meadow. Well, here it is September and today I wandered to the back of the yard to check out the "meadow"in its full end-of-summer glory.

Come a little closer to see what I found, Goldenrod and a Preying Mantis:



I left the little guy where he was, but couldn't resist bringing some of the goldenrod into my home. Here it is in the sunroom:




I clipped these cuties too:

More goldenrod in my front foyer.


Aaaah!! I do love the outdoors. Have I mentioned that? So glorious.


Life is beautiful right outside your door. Today I am sharing this with Melissa' Beautiful Life Friday over at The Inspired Room.


Enjoy your holiday weekend!

    Oh, I adore your meadow. Thank you for showing it to us this season. I remember it from last time and loved it then. The golden rod is lovely as well.

    Lovely post and photos, bringing the outdoors in is a great way to celebrate the changing seasons. Fall nesting is a great theme for a blog party and everyone has such lovely ideas to share.
