Welcome to the first fall house tour given by Diamonds or Pearls. My name is Linda Hites and I am the mother of the three sisters that started Diamonds or Pearls Blog. I would like to welcome you to my home in Missouri and the front porch is the perfect place to start. I thought there is no better way to greet you than with a beautiful wreath.
This is one of my favorite times of the year. Mums, pumpkins, cold weather, and family gatherings are just a few of the special things that mean fall to me. Come into the dining room where we are ready to sit down and serve lunch. It’s so special to have a few close friends over and catch up on things.
After lunch lets go in and sit by a cozy fire and relax with some coffee and a great dessert.

It’s been such a pleasure showing you our home and I can’t wait to see you again. Thanks for coming and don’t forget your gift as you leave. There’s a goody bag to take home and enjoy tonight. Please join us again on Monday, September 12th to tour my daughter Michelle’s home in Hawaii.
Love, Linda

I remember so many times your aunt Judy would call me and tell that she and your mom was having a sale. I was one of the first ones to come look. My house is still decorated with things I bought from them. I have a certain wreath hanging in my kitchen and when I look at I’m reminded of Judy!
