10 Things I Love About Fall :)


1. Apple and Cinnamon.....anything!
2. Comfy boots and knitted scarves.
3. Hot tea with honey.
4. Flannel Shirts and warm sweaters.
5. Autumn scented candles burning.
6. Pumpkin anything...especially whoopie pies.
7. Snuggling up under extra blankets and quilts.
8. Thanksgiving dinner!
9. Watching my kids jump in piles of leaves.
10. Lighting a fire in the fireplace :)

It's starting to feel like Fall here, or do you say Autumn? I like both words.
Extra blankets are coming out,
along with long-sleeved sweaters and jackets.
We were just wearing shorts and flip-flops a few days ago!
We've had some rain, and turning the oven on is a welcome feeling
of warmth, not overbearing heat :)
I'll miss summer a bit, but I love Fall and the changing of the seasons.

What do you Love about Fall?

Blessings,
Marcia ♥

    Happy Fall Marcia! I love that we can all cozy up in front of a log fire and eat our homemade candy apples and fudge! Can you tell food is one of my principal enjoyments ANY season?!!!
    Blessings

    I love the cooler weather and the smell of pumpkin and spices! I also love to curl up with a blanket with my family in front of the fireplace. :) I have loved these past few days of rain. I know none of that is really very typical here in So. CA but I did enjoy it while it lasted!

    Pretty much the same. Most of all I love the color and regret its absence because of the Midwest winter which comes immediately afterwards. :D

    I'm still working on embracing Fall, but doing better.

    Hi Marcia, I love your list and those beautifully displayed apples. It's actually been cooler in the mornings and evenings here in Orlando. It's giving me hope for a real Fall and Winter! Happy Fall!

    I love fall, also. I love making my pumpkin spice coffee and muffins. I love the cool mornings and evenings. I love lightweight jackets and bonfires. I love the beautiful leaves on the trees. God is such an amazing artist!

  21. Tammy@T's Daily TreasuresOctober 7, 2011 at 10:30 PM

    All the things you love summed up Fall for me, too, and yet we don't get most of that around here. :/ I can light pumpkin, nutmeg, vanilla caramel candles though -- and I can crochet cozy scarves and wait for those cooler days to arrive. :) Morning and night time temps are certainly better ... just waiting for those day temps to come down. Hope your weekend is great. Tammy

    I love the bottom picture with the pumpkins in that turquoise truck.
    I do love the cooler weather so much. It makes me happy to be able to breathe cooler air.
    I am glad you are having some cool weather too. Though the weather man said by next week we will be back to warmer temps. I kept my short out just in case. :)
    I love your list.

    I believe, as did George Eliot, that autumn is wedded to my soul.

    Great post, Marcia!

    I love the word Autumn, but I usually say Fall. I love fall too and the nights are getting that chill I love.
    All the things you mentioned are some of my favorite things. Pumpkins and fall flowers at my front door and a fall wreath come out the first of October.
    Love the old pick-up with pumpkins.
    Reminds me of going to the pumpkin patch in Tehachapi when my boys were small. Happy Autumn!!

    I wish we could just go from Fall right into Spring! How about that for demanding! I'm just dreading the COLD!!
    I loved all those things you listed! Oh how we are alike! ;)
    My SIL is still not blogging...I can't get her back! ;(

    Ohhhh I'm so happy I can't tell you.
    Fall is so wonderful by itself but to come after humid heat is just so sweet.
    We love to host bonfires and roast things!
