Howdy Friends!  It’s already the end of the week which means it’s time for Farmhouse Friday Link Party #172!  I have had the best birthday month and still have almost 2 weeks left!  Oh yes, I milk it all the way until the 30th.  Do you celebrate YOU for an entire month?  If not, you should try it!  It’s awesome!

Farmhouse Friday Link Party #172!

Besides having meals with friends, the gifts and having nice things done for me, I’ve been doing a little outdoor decorating in Navasota.   I’ll have to show you what it looks like in a month or two.  The Mister and I are taking a vacation and I didn’t have time to take photos before I left.  All I can say is that it’s so cute!

Old Jars and Dining Outside – The Perfect Combo!

We did enjoy a couple of days with fantastic weather.  I took full advantage of it and can hardly wait to get back down there to enjoy it even more.  You can read about it in the Old Jars and Dining Outside post.

How to Decorate a Small Porch for Fall – 5 different looks!

When we got home I was looking around our neighborhood and noticed a couple of houses putting out fall decor.  That made me want to go ahead and do what I wasn’t going to do – decorate our porchette.  It’s so small but after looking at Pinterest and seeing 5 small porches that looked adorable, I changed my mind.

Your other host for Farmhouse Friday has been busy too.  Michelle and I both participated in the bi-monthly blog hop called Lifestyle of Love.  This time our theme was vintage bottles and jars.  If you didn’t see her post, Decorating with Mason Jars and Bottles, click here and check it out.  Now on to the features!

LINK PARTY RULES:

• Since the party is called Farmhouse Friday, we’d like to keep the party farmhouse themed. You don’t have to live in a farmhouse or have farmhouse as your main decor theme in order to share.  We love seeing farmhouse mixed in with other styles and it can be a DIY, decor inspiration or craft.
• No food or recipe posts please.
• We are flexible when it comes to defining “farmhouse” so if you are unsure of whether or not your post will fit in the party theme, go ahead and post it and if we feel it doesn’t fit, we’ll delete it – no hard feelings. 🙂
• It doesn’t matter how old your post is but please link your posts only once.
• The party runs from 6 AM, PST/8 AM, CST on Friday and ends at noon, PST/2 PM, CST on Monday.
• You aren’t required to link back to this party, but if you do, we greatly appreciate it!
• A Link Party is a great way to grow your blog and be inspired.  Please don’t post and run.  Show some love by visiting and pinning (from the original post) what you find interesting.
• By linking up to this party, you permit us to share your posts and pictures via social media and as features or roundups.  We’ll make sure to link back to your post and/or this party on the week it was featured.

NOW LET’S HAVE SOME PARTY FUN!  IF YOU SEE SOMETHING YOU’D LIKE TO LOOK AT, JUST CLICK ON THE PHOTO.
