It's Fall Ya'll!

Sorry! I had to say it. But being that I live in Southeast Missouri, I can say that, Southern accent and all. (If you've ever watched any videos on my blog, you know it's true! - sad but true!)

This is my FAVORITE time of the year (not seasonal allergies favorite)! I am so excited about all the great things that Fall brings -

Crops being harvested (we have the best corn fields around here - and beans, and rice, and cotton and hay and well, you get the point),
lots of little fairs & carnivals,
Fall & Halloween decos being pulled out everywhere,
a little less heat & humidity and a little more crisp breezy air,
PUMPKINS, PUMPKINS, PUMPKINS,
Halloween parties,
leaves changing colors and falling all around,
tractor & hayrides,
beautiful afternoon walks,
my mother-in-law's chili,
high school football,
sipping hot chocolate wrapped up in a cozy blanket,
opening the windows and turning off the a/c,
Christmas shopping trips,
costumes,
Thanksgiving,
family get-togethers and
lots of great food.

October is also a great month around our house! Halloween, my birthday, my Daddy's birthday, Sebastian's birthday and mine & David's wedding anniversary all fall in October. Columbus Day is also in October and is a holiday on which we don't have to work and just happens to be celebrated on my birthday -whoohoo! I love October and I love Fall! So glad it's finally here!

Because of the gorgeous Fall weather we had today, Sebastian & I ventured outdoors to clean & organize our carport. We couldn't have asked for better weather today. We got pretty dang dirty today, but we made up for it in fun. Doesn't Sebastian look so adorable splattered in mud & dirt?
