Okay...so I know that my last post was slightly related to the change of seasons, but now I can't get it off of my mind. Maybe if I write out a list, I can relax a bit and enjoy the end of summer while we have it!
1. The colors! The foliage around here is just amazing! I hope to go on some small family trips to explore the beauty.
2. The coziness of lighting candles and snuggling up with a blanket
3. Pumpkin Patches
4. Cooking: Almost everything I like to make is best suited for the fall and winter (see below)
5. We'll be that much closer to meeting our new baby! So here is the way I see it...we'll have the lovliness of fall, the joy of the Christmas season, and then BABY!
6. Local apples at farmer's markets and stores
7. Making lots and lots of applesauce. I have a (not so) secret ingredient in my recipe: raw sugar!
8. Our upcoming Halloween party with family and friends
9. Dressing Parker up in a super-cute costume...
10. Which I might just make by myself
11. Wearing sweaters and real shoes (instead of Chaco's and flip-flops!)
12. Jumping in leaves with Joel and Parker
13. Husband will start his first PA job on Oct. 1 and then we'll get a paycheck! I could make a whole list of things that will be great about this. Maybe next time...:)
For more lists like this, please visit Thursday Thirteen!

Your love of fall is inspiring. Whatever you do, don't move to Texas! Southern California even has more defined, enjoyable seasons than we do out here. Thanks for a taste of what fall is in other places :)
I love the autumn. It's my favorite favorite time of year. It's very different here in California than in was in Western North Carolina, where we are from. But there are still plenty of snuggle days and cool evenings. And the new house, it has a fireplace. Oh I can't wait.

I am a summer person but your list has even me looking forward to fall, just a little bit.
Have a great Thursday!
It IS inspiring.. the things you wrote! I love making a list of things to look forward to :) makes me feel so positive. hey you guys should take parker on the medeline falls train ride! its so pretty in the fall. Love, gina
Oh...your post makes me long for Fall. But I'm down here in Texas and it's still soooooo far off!
My TT is up! Thirteen steps in hosting a blog tour for my new novel, SAVING GRACE!
That is a lot to look forward to! It makes me feel silly for looking forward to fall for the new season of television programming.
Your list is so fun! Lots of the things you shared are things that I look forward to about fall too- I especially can't wait to take Audrey to the pumpkin patch- we didn't go last year b/c she was still so little. Although I'm not sure it will ever compare to the year we all went together- actually that was actually more of a muddy corn maze visit than a pumpkin patch visit...
Andi brought up good memories with the time we all went to the corn maze...I actually threw out that pair of shoes because they got so muddy! Love you,

That was wonderful.
I look forward to fall..
Great TT
My TT is up
Have a wonderful day!
Just wanted to let you know that I started my very own blog. I still need to add some more of my special touches to it, but it's a start. I think you can just click on my name about to get to my page. Love you,

Great list! Makes me want fall. More for the slower pace of life though! I'm still enjoying the sun.......
I know that when fall does roll around I'll be ready. It's funny how it works that way!
Enjoy your weekend!
Love, Aleah
