{Dreaming of Fall}

A few weeks ago Mason and I went to our downtown area to take some pictures of Mason. When we were leaving I found a few red leaves and it filled my soul with so much happiness. A little piece of Fall smack dab in the middle of Summer. A little promise of what is to come. So naturally it made me start dreaming of Fall. It's my favorite time of year and I can't help it. I just wish that we had a bit of a longer Fall here in Texas. It's short...just like our Winter & Spring. I try to soak up as much of it as I can. Fall just does something to my soul.

What are some of your favorite things about Fall? I've listed some of mine below...

+ the refresh/renewal in my spirit that comes with the change of the season
+ cooler air
+ bonfires & s'mores
+ sweaters, boots & scarves
+ crockpot meals
+ baking all the fall things
+ college football
+ fall smells in the scentsy
+ going to the pumpkin patch
+ camping
+ decorating my porch for fall
+ buying pumpkins
+ decorating/carving pumpkins
+ strolling through the fall aisles at hobby lobby,walmart & target
+ pumpkin everything
+ playing outside without completely melting
+ friday night lights
+ suppers on the porch
+ carnivals and fairs
+ hayrides
+ candy corn
+ mums
+ flannels
+ movie nights/cuddling on the couch with cozy blankets

  2. Fall makes me a little sad cause it means that I have to wait all year for Summer to roll back around. But I do love lighting candles and the smell of chili cooking in the house. It also usually means a little getaway with my sweetie, so I definitely look forward to that!

  3. I have to say - the chillier air and all things pumpkin. Even though we live in Florida, our winter is just perfect. We don't have the amazing leaves but hey, it's a bargain. No snow either!

  10. We don't have much in the way of Fall, either. Back home (in Iowa) I loved having the windows open and letting the crisp, cool air flow through then house. There was just enough bite in the air to really need to snuggle into warm cozy blankets.
    Also, I love that you call the evening meal "supper." Scott thinks it's funny when I refer to it that way instead of dinner.
