Fall is fast approaching...



I have never been a fall/winter kind of person, but this year I find myself looking forward to the season! Lately, when I step out of our little home in the morning I can feel a bite in the air. Normally this would make be sad, since it means the end of summer, but this year its invigorating! That little chill is like an old friend giving me a personal little "good morning", and it makes me giddy to think of all that the season will bring!



Just some of the thoughts of fall dancing around in my head...
watching the colors change, warm sweaters, hot cocoa, toasty fires, brisk air, crunchy leaves, halloween, warm socks, pumpkin pie, decorations, boots, hot apple cider, caramel apples, carving pumpkins, the lovely smells in the air, the chill that sneaks in through the window in the morning, smoke coming from chimneys, walking through corn mazes, turkey, family, giving thanks.....

Me too!! After our storms this week end, even we had a chill in the air this morning and the word invigorating came to mind! One more thing I wish is that it meant we would get to take a trip to Utah! I'm hoping for an air special to pop up this week!
Love you,
mom

Taryn! I love reading your blog!! Very poetic, artsy post I must say! I like all the pictures too. I am getting excited for the new season as well. Okay, I don't know what is up with the blog lists that tell you when they update- Apparently mine doesn't work that great either- But according to yours it says It's been a month since I've posted! Making me look like a lazy blogger!! I have posted quite a bit actually so you'll have to look at it sometime. Hey, once again, I LOVED seeing you!!!!!!!!!!! That was so good of you to come!

I just got excited out-of-my-brains to vote on your poll. GHOSTWRITER! WORD. Anyway, Taryn-Fall is the best thing that could ever happen to anyone. There can't be anything better in the world than Fall Air Smell. But you don't have to take my word for it (duh nuh nuh!).

I LOVE FALL! I love the smell in the air and orange and pumpkins and boots too! YAY! I wish it felt like fall here though. :( Still hot and humid. You've inspired me to write my own post on how I love fall!
