Happy Fall!!

Happy Fall!!

The air is quite crisp in the mornings, with that slight bit of chill that makes you want to crawl back in bed and cuddle with your honey for “just 10 more minutes”. But of course, 10 more minutes will make you late to work, if you’re anything like me.I’m in a list kind of mood today…. so… I want to make a list of all the things I enjoy and look forward to during the fall:

· Cuddling for “just 10 more minutes” on the weekends, before obligations and sheer boredom drag you out of bed.
· Halloween – for sure!
· Changing of the leaves from greens to reds, oranges and yellows – and every color in between.
· Cool evenings are great for soup – it should be soup season instead of fall.
· THE NC STATE FAIR!!!!
· Family gatherings: one or two last cook outs, poker nights with the garage door open, thanksgiving feasts, etc.
· Standing in my back yard watching my pups thoroughly enjoy the cool weather, and the wind blowing just enough to sweep my hair off my face. It’s God’s way of saying that everything is right in the world!
· Lots of our favorite shows’ premier now (which gives us good reason to eat soup and cuddle on the couch!).

Carolina’s not so great if you’ve lived here all your life… but I will tell you, after 26 years of living here, I think our seasons are very distinct, wonderful, and picturesque

You're right! I've NEVER experienced seasons like I've experienced them since I've been in NC. Sooo beautiful! You made me hungry for SOUP!
