I am a lover of the fall (live in CT so there is a lot of foliage).... I was wondering if you folks had any ideas for decoration on the house or whatever.....

You could buy some Indian corn ( multi colored corn) and wire it to a purchased wire wreath frame and hang it on your door.
I also like to go and gather different colored leaves, ones that are truly beautiful with a range of colors and bring them home and press them , individually or in a group between two pieces of wax paper with an iron set on low ( silk or less ) heat. It will melt the wax and laminate them together and then you can use them as temporary placemats for the fall or tape them to your windows for a stained glass look.
You can also collect the leaves or buy preserved ones in fall colors of reds and golds at your local craft store and scatter them across your dining room table or coffee table and in the center you can add a wooden bowl of colorful gourds. This works well also for those in a warmer climate that want that feel of autumn in their homes.

My husband loves to decorate for fall, too. We bought several strands of fall foliage garland....just like Christmas garland, but it's fall leaves and berries. We lay that around in different areas and accentuate it with pumpkins...all kinds of pumpkins, big ones, tiny ones (my kids LOVE those), the little gourds you can buy. Pumpkins last for a very long time as long as you don't cut into them. My kids also pick up pretty leaves from outside and help us decorate (my cats usually attack the leaves from outside and crumble them up all over my floor...yay). We planted little tiny pumpkins in our garden so, hopefully we'll be able to use them soon. Candles are always pretty...if you like the garland idea, set the candles around and intertwine the garland around the base. At first I thought it was a bit silly to spend money on the garland, but it was a good investment. Just like Christmas decorations, we add to our fall/Halloween decorations every year now. Maybe some one these ideas will help you.
By the way, you were talking about INSIDE your house, right? If you meant outside, I have nothing to offer...that's my hubby's domain
Love, Heather
