These are a few of my favorite things.....

One of my all-time favorite seasons is upon us! Ok, I probably say that about every season, but there is something in every season that I just love. Don't you? So here is my list.......Some of my favorite things about Fall....(in no particular order) :)

* mine and Jeremy's birthdays! (Sept 15th and Oct 23rd); I enjoy it now....wait a few years and this may be on my "things I dislike about fall" list!

* kids are back in school!!!! (can I get a hallalujiah?!)

* pumpkin or apple scented candles

* pumpkins

* the changing of the leaves- love the reds, oranges and yellows on the trees- so pretty

* cooler temps

* Halloween parties (at church, the kids' schools...)

* hayrides

* hot apple cider

* open windows in the house

* taking the kids to pumpkin patches or farms (going pumpkin pickin')

* garage saling (lots of good garage sales and neighborhood sales around here in Sept!)

* carving a pumpkin with the kids

*we don't have to mow anymore! or not as much at least. (with Jeremy's travel schedule, this has become one of "my" jobs around the house)

And these area few of my favorite things!!!

So.....what are YOUR favorite things about fall?

Welcome October!

Yes, it is true. The word is out. I am officially 9 weeks pregnant :) My due date is May 5, 2010. Which so happens to be mine and Jeremy's 9 year anniversary. But hey, I figured, we've had 8 years to celebrate our anniversary all to ourselves, why don't we give Baby #3 the rest of our anniversaries?! ;)

Ok, so that's not exactly what we thought. We were a bit shocked to find out of Baby #3. We have started talking another baby, but did not completely decide yet if we wanted another one, and when............when, voila'! Baby #3 has made it's presence known! If I would have had my choice, we would have waited a bit longer, to have a summer baby, since we have November and March babies. But, baby is ready now I guess! And yes, I took 4 tests.....just to make sure!

So happy October is here.............makes Fall seem like it's here officially now! Love the cool weather! Have a great day!
