Ah, Fall

I just absolutely love fall! I love when the leaves begin to change,

I love the crispness in the air, I love pumpkins. I love trading in my summer clothes for my sweaters and long sleeves.

I love making soup on a chilly day. I love waking up, making some hot cocoa, and sitting by the fire all snuggled up with my kids.

I love walking my kids to school and hearing the leaves crunch under my feet.

I love pumpkin pie and pumpkin chocolate chip cookies. I love baking.

I love hiking up at Sundance with my hubby and my kids and seeing all the beautiful leaves.

I love going for long drives up in the canyon on a Sunday afternoon after church.

I love that I don't have to mow the lawn quite so often...

I love Halloween and seeing my kids so excited to dress up and eat candy. I love Halloween candy, especially the Halloween colored m&m's (I'm such a sucker for those themed M&M's. I just can't seem to pass them up).

I love the peacefulness that I feel before all of the crazy holiday stuff begins.

I love fall.
