It's fall Ya'll! Yes, yes I knew I couldn't really pull that off. I'm not from Georgia or South Carolina. I had to say it just once, though.
This is by far my favorite season. At no other time during the year do I want to emerse myself in seasonal things like I do when it its fall. And there is something about October 1st that thrills me. You'd think it would be the actual first day of fall, which was Saturday. But no, October is a magical month for me.
To me October is
red and orange trees
crisp, evening walks
mornings where I snuggle up under the blankets with the kids
vintage halloween decorations
pumpkins, lots of pumpkins
gourds, colorful, mishapen, bumpy gourds
dressing up for Halloween
apple cider
long sleeves
the pumpkin patch, at least twice, if not more
breaking out the fall decorations
crunchy leaves
It's The Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown
Pumpkin Spice Lattes at Starbucks
Pumpkin Bread
The anticipation of the Holiday season and doing fun things with family and friends
Oh, and Christmas music. Yes, I'm one of those nerds. I break out the Bing Crosby, Carpenter's and Bare Naked Ladies Christmas CD's before the month is through. (This year, we will probably be listening to our Pandora Station a lot.)
While our computers are on the fritz, I don't have access to my pictures and cannot download any from my camera. I miss posting pics on the blog. You'll have to imagine a lovely fall scene instead.
Happy Fall Everyone!
