Dreamin' of Cooler Days...

Since we've all been dealing with record heat lately, I thought it would be a great time to talk about my favorite time of year---FALL!  I know we are know where near the fall season, but I can't help but long for a break from this ridiculous heat.  Here's a few reasons why I love fall:

1) There is nothing better than walking outside and feeling the cool, crisp air of a fall day.  I can't help but smile when I breathe in the fresh air.

2) I love the changing colors of all the leaves.  All the reds, orange, and yellow make for such a beautiful sight!

3) I love the feeling of putting on the first cozy sweater---you know the weather where you don't need a coat yet and a sweater keeps you all warm while you enjoy the cool air on your face.

4)  My wedding anniversary is in the fall.  Of course I would plan a wedding during my favorite season!  I also incorporated all the lovely colors of fall in my wedding theme.

5) My birthday is in the fall.  Yes this will probably mean less and less when I get older, but as for now it still makes the list.

6) I've already posted on my love for all things back to school.  The anticipation of starting a new school year---with a clean slate.  I was always so excited to see my friends and to new beginnings.

7) Who doesn't love a good football game?  Nothing is better than attending a football game on a perfect fall evening.

8) Of course you can't forget about Thanksgiving.  All the wonderful food and time with family and friends.  Just gives you a warm and cozy feeling!

9) Speaking of food...fall makes me think of enjoying a warm cup of soup or a hot cup of cider!

10) And my newest love for fall---my little boy's birthday!

What is your favorite season?

  4. Fall is my favorite season too. I love the cool weather, but we don't get the color changes. We're more ever greens in New Orleans.

    I'm partial to Fall as well, because October is my birthday month - woot!

  5. I love fall because of the changes in the color and the cooler weather but my favorite season really is summer. I love the sun and the pool.

  8. I love fall too. Even though I know spring is the season of "newness" I always felt like it was fall for me--maybe because it was always the start of a fresh school year. But I just relish fall.

  9. I love a cup of hot cider!

    Not many changing leaves here. He have to drive west or north to see that.

  10. I love the scent of fall. Now that I no longer have a traditional fall I really miss the colors and the smells of fall.

  11. You sure DO have many reasons to love fall. I wished there was fall in Malaysia. I've never experienced it in my life. I think I'll like the changing colour and the cool crisp air too. I can almost feel fall from reading this.

  14. I love the first cozy sweater & crunchy leaves, too! I really do like all seasons but I'd say fall is close to being my favorite. I just love the leaves and breezes!

  15. I am definitely a summer girl, but I will admit that I do love the cooler temps in the fall. It definitely makes it easier for a nice cool walk outside!

  17. I miss living in four seasons. When I did, Fall was one of my favorite times of year (I confess, I'm more of a Spring girl). Not far now, for you!!

  21. I'm SO with you! I think fall was specifically designed for gals like us who loved back to school shopping... ;)

  22. Fall is my favorite season too. I love the coolish weather and leaves! Also, I'm a big Halloween fan...until I overdose Halloween candy. Then, I'm good for another year. :)

  23. Also...my baby's birthday!!!

    I love fall, too, but it's a little different here in Florida. We don't have as many changing leaves (at least not until later in the fall) and the weather actually is HOTTER. I remember a few years ago in October we had an outdoor event and it was 90 degrees. But I still love the warm, fall colors.
