FALL IS HERE!

Summer went by way too quickly and I'm not looking forward to snow, but the good thing is that I still have a couple of weeks before the snow to enjoy one of my favorite seasons...FALL!


 Here's a couple reasons why I LOVE fall:

1. Scarves!  As my dear naive husband pointed out as soon as I took out the winter wardrobe..I have a lot of scarves...he is still learning


2.Pumpkin patches!!! Pumpkins that are too heavy to carry, pumpkins that fit in your palm, corn mazes with no rhyme or reason, that hay ride i wish we'd gone on but it was too late, mini haunted houses where you get scared by a little kid who pops out at you, petting zoos with a huge pig that Chanel refers to as bacon....














3. Food...soups (hello zupas), thanksgiving meals(who says that can only be in November?), pumpkin bread(even though I burned it watching the lego movie which I should have listened to Chanel and not have rented it in the first place b/c it was...well lets just say it wasn't the best movie I've picked)




Some may see Fall as a sad thing; The regret that summer passed in a fleeting moment and didn't care that you hadn't checked everything off your summer bucket list, the dread of the snow that's coming and knowing that it means slipping, scraping, and shoveling.


But you can't complain too much when you know it also means warm blankets, movies, and hot chocolate with your best friend




 

Its hard not to be in love with fall when the colorful leaves on the ground remind you of that crisp cold morning you held hands and went for a walk trying to find crunchy leaves to step on and the day he asked you to be his girlfriend 




....goodbye summer....
