Fall Favorites

Today is all about my favorite season! Every year when fall comes around, I get very excited because there are many things that I enjoy about this season. Here are just a few that I wanted to share with you today:

  1. Changing of the leaves! I think that when the leaves change, it is the most beautiful thing in the world! All the colors remind me of how real God is. Just by looking around at all the trees, you will know that only God could have created something that wonderful!
  2. Sweaters and warm clothes is another thing that I love when fall comes around. There is just something very comforting about being warm and cozy when the weather is starting to change! It makes you want to snuggle with a blanket and read a book!
  3. Football season! Having been at high school football games all during high school, I love the atmosphere that a fall football game brings! After I graduate however, I lost interest somewhat. But now, I get very excited when the West Virginia Mountaineers play football. I actually had the chance to go to a game last month! It was so much fun being in the crowd with all the crazy fans! The weather was just right and it reminded me of how much I love football season.
  4. Pumpkin carving and pumpkin pie is definetly a fall favorite for me. This year, I have set my mind to making a pumpkin pie. In the past, I would just buy one from the store. Now I can kill two birds with one stone. Buy the pumpkin to carve and then what is left from it, make a pumpkin pie! I don't know why I haven't thought of that in the past...!
  5. Last but not least....this season is also my favorite holiday! Thanksgiving. This year will be extra special because Jeremy and I are having Thanksgiving at our house. I can't wait to decorate and have dinner with family and friends. I have never made a turkey though, but I'm sure that my mother-in-law will help me with that. She's a pro at cooking!

So...what are some of your fall favorites? I would love to know what you enjoy about this season!

I love fall too! I think the reason that I like fall so much is because that was when I met Tommy...it reminds me of being young and in new love, no worries. We would take long walks through the mountains and spend countless hours without a care in the world except being with eachother! I miss those carefree days! Oh yeah...I'll help with the turkey!lol

Love,
Tammy...aka...mother-in-law
