Why I Love Fall - particularly October!!!

I just LOVE fall!!!  You can always feel a certain excitement in the air when October hits.  I think its because its the beginning of another year of holidays, you start to feel a cool breeze outside, you see leaves falling, the air is crisp, etc.  Here are just a few of my favorite things about fall - especially October!



Pumpkins - all shapes and sizes - wish I could by tons to decorate with - I especially like white ones too!  And...going to the pumpkin patch - this is a family tradition going on 4 years!  We just love the pumpkin patch and always get great fall pics there - more to come on that - keep looking for those pics coming up soon!

These little candy pumpkins are a huge addiction of mine - I eat myself sick each year, and then I'm done...until the next year!  I have some of these up high in my closet right now...don't laugh, I'm serious!!!  I keep them out of reach of my kids, but I do share..sometimes:)

Candy Corn - who doesn't love this this time of year?!  I love to fill small bowls, vases, etc. with it - good to eat and cute as decoration, can't beat that!!!

Orange and Brown Fall clothes - I LOVE to wear my Orange Banana Republic sweater, jeans, and brown boots!  Sooo comfy and cozy this time of year!

Changing Leaves - I LOVE to see the leaves changing, such a beautiful creation of God!  God your workmanship is marvelous!  Thanks for how you continue to "awe" me!!! - Love to take pics of my kids in these, walk in them, crunch them under my feet, decorate with them, and make crafts with them!

Allyson says she loves jumping in the leaves (though I doubt she's ever actually jumped in the leaves; she saw this in a library book).

I love Thanksgiving best--all the yummy food and time with family.

Central Market has some really interesting and cool looking pumpkins right now (including the white ones).

I LOVE the color palette this time of year!
