5 Reasons I Love Fall

First I just wanted to give a huge thanks to my followers! I now have 30 followers, I know some of you have them in the hundreds or even thousands but for my little blog I think it's great!  Now on to my reasons for loving fall.  For me the first little inkling that fall is on it's way is when I see this

Apples in the farmers market! I can't say there is any apple that I dislike.

And of course Mom's apple pie, my moms is the best in the world (yes I know everyone thinks their moms is)

High School Football!

My son Devin has been playing since he was 8 and this is his first year playing high school football!  I love the excitement of it all, I don't know what's happening all the time but I know it's a heck of a lot more fun that watching the NFL on the TV

Decorating for Fall

It's so much fun to scan all my favorite blogs to see what the latest fall decorating trends are, plus who can help but love when the Pottery Barn Fall catalog comes out!

and the top reason why I love fall is HALLOWEEN!!!!!

I'm a big kid stuck in the body of a 35 y/o stay at home mom so when halloween rolls around we always do it up, go to the pumpkin patch, decorate the house, go to the haunted lake in our neighborhood, etc.  but best of all I think is watching the little kids parade around the neighborhood in their costumes!  well that and eating left over candy:)  So what are your favorite things about fall? As always thanks for reading!

    Fall is my favorite season. I love all the things about it and especially all the pumpkin baked goods! Of course, that apple pie made my mouth water.

    Thanks for visiting!

    First of all, congrats on hitting the thirty mark. We "intimate" blogs need to stick together. And secondly, I'm also happy to meet another thirty-something who loves Halloween as much as I do. I love it all...the decorating, the costumes, the treats-GAH. I love it all. Thanks for the fun post.
