Hi Jane! I'm glad to hear other people can't get those damned mums to grow either *HA*. It makes me sick...just down the road, there's several houses with these HUGE GORGEOUS clumps of mums that come back year after year.....
Your painting scheme sounds beautiful. I LOVE white painted woodwork/trim with darker colored walls. I want to do that here, but hubby won't hear of it. He likes the stained wood trim. I did white trim in my bedroom/bath/office and love it. Bedroom has two walls deep apple green, office has 2 walls deep mulberry.
That was one heck of a "dry spell" we had. Our weather's really nice lately, and the trees are just barely starting to show color. I agree, fall is my favorite season too!
