Tomorrow is the beginning of fall and I am so looking forward to the
season. I know January is technically the beginning of the new year, but
September always feels to me like the start of the year. Why do I love fall so
much? Well, let me count down the
reasons I love the fall!
10. Sweater weather. I enjoy when the weather
starts to cool and it’s time to break out the comfy sweaters. Pair that with
leggings and my fuzzy boots and I’m in wardrobe heaven.
9. Great deals on office
supplies. I love the deals, the smell of
fresh binders and notebooks. A new notebook holds endless possibilities!
8. Rain. Strange as it might
sound, I look forward to the rain. What can I say? I’m from the Northwest. I
like rain. I especially love to listen to the rain fall on the roof as I drift
off the sleep. Of course, by January I’ll be desperate for some sun, but now I’m
happy to have a little rain.
7. Fall colors. I admit I probably take trees for granted. But
in the fall they come alive in bright colors that make me take notice. Taking a walk in the fall leaves is a
favorite fall tradition. Seriously, it’s
pretty much mandatory so get on out there!
6. Shaving. Thanks to sweaters
and leggings I don’t have too. Ok, TMI – moving on…
5. School. The kids go back to school. And every mama says wahoooo!
4. Hot chocolate. I love coming in from the cold and enjoying a
nice steaming cup of hot chocolate with little marshmallows on top. I suppose
you could have hot chocolate on a warm day…no, no you just can’t.
3. Football. I can’t wait to put
on my official jersey (the most expensive shirt I own) and sit on the couch,
eating munchie food with no appreciable nutritional value while yelling at
professional athletes to run faster and catch that dang ball! C’mon!
2. Holidays. There are so many great holidays in the fall:
Halloween, Thanksgiving, my
birthday. In a few days I get to
celebrate my anniversary. Nineteen years
and he still makes my heart go thump. Yup, the fall has the best holidays!
1. Curling up by the fire and reading a good book. My favorite!!
Speaking of good books, here is the official cover reveal of My
Highland Rebel – out Jan. 2017! What do
you think?
I wish we had fall. It sounds so lovely.
