Welcome Fall

Awww...Fall. My most favorite time of the year is FINALLY here. Yesterday, as I was out and about I couldn't keep myself from completely LOVING the day. It was absolutely BEAUTIFUL. I'd go as far as to call it a PERFECT "fall" day! I also spent most of my day doing one of my most favorite "fall" things to do -I canned tomatoes with my mom. I love, love, LOVE the smell of canned tomatoes. I grew up looking forward to the smell that would await me as I hurried home from school on canning days. The pure fresh smell of cooked tomatoes...I know I'm weird, but nonetheless...it's still one of my favorites.

A few other "fall" favorties are pumpkins, zuccihini bread, bike rides, football, jackets & sweaters, fires, leaves...any of you that know me well, know how much I LOVE leaves. Ohhh, and how I love the sound of crunching leaves under my shoes. Actually, I have been know to chase a few dried leaves blown by the wind, so I could get the satisfaction of a good crunch. Much satisfaction. I also love to pull out my fall decor out in September and of course, add to it every year (my current favorite color is burnt orange...perfect for fall decor). My favorite "fall" activities include, but are not limited to: morning walks, hot dog roast in the canyons, Oktoberfest, Wheeler Farm, Gardner Village, the Zoo, Thanksgiving Pointe, halloween parties and feeding the ducks at the lake. There are just so many things to love about Fall.

So, I gladly welcome you Fall. Please stay as long as you'd like.
