Fall...My favorite time of year

I love the colored leaves in New England...they are such portraits of beauty in their rich colors of red, yellow and orange that cruch under your feet and whisper as they fall! I went their a couple of falls ago with my best friend, Hanna and had the time of my life! I love the cooler weather...the festivals...the pumpkin and apple treats...hot apple cider...visiting apple orchards, etc. Too bad you pretty much can't do any of that here in Texas! :) But still take time today to breathe in fall. Go carve a pumpkin and roast the seeds....so yummy! (Exhibit a...the one my man carved for me...pretty talented!) Then just enjoy the day...as my little man, Linus is in the below picture! :) Or at a bonfire (like the one below when my man and I celebrated A&M's victory over beating UT last year!) Or by finding a leaf pile to jump and play in (like my man and I also did while visiting his family in Virginia.) Or bake a yummy dessert (like pumpkin chocolate chip cookies, which I stole the recipe from another fellow blogger...so yummy!) Whatever you decide to do, just go and BEHOLD the Creator and play like you haven't done in a long while! Stop and enjoy! Happy Fall Friends! :)

It is too bad we don't have four seasons in Texas! Here in Houston our two seasons are Hot and Hotter! Oh well, we can always visit those beautiful northeastern places for Fall and still miss all that blizzard weather in Winter.
