Fall is on the way!

As I sit here in the early morning listening to the birds sing outside - I can't help but be grateful! Fall is on the way, the air is crisp outside.....awww my favorite time of year! I can't wait for the leaves to begin changing colors, falling and walking through them, planting colorful pansies outside, for my urge to want to brew and drink coffee to come back, to be able to wear light weight coats in the morning, but not in the afternoon! And then it gets better from that.....the fall decorations, preparing for Thanksgiving, pumpkin pie candles burning, pumpkin pies baking in the oven, and cozying up with a blanket at night reading a book.
All of these things I have been longing for!

AMEN!!! Except the pumpkin pie part, I'm ready for sweet potato pie and just wishing our pumpkin plant would do more than just flower.

No it was about 6:15 am....I don't know why the time says that. I guess I will try to fix it! :)

That is funny because fall is my LEAST favorite time of year....
I like Spring best I think.

I didn't know you had a blog. I stumbled upon it from Amy's. I'm so glad! It's so addictive! Anyway! Just wanted to say thank you for being so patient with my baby on Sunday mornings at church. I don't know what her deal is, but you and David are always so sweet about it! Thanks again!
