It's Starting!!!

I don't know if you can see it in the picture or not, But the leaves have started to change. I am soooo excited! I LOVE FALL! I love the crispness in the air, the flamboyant colors that are everywhere. All of the food that comes around with the Harvest. The temperature finally cools down enough to go and do things out side.

One thing that comes with fall and being out side is PUMPKIN LAND! My girls love going and following the trails around the garden and then getting to the animals and the playground. The best part is picking out the pumpkins at the end. This is our picture from last year. Laira talks about it all the time. We actually drive by Pumpkin land quite often. So we never stop hearing about it.

Another thing that I look forward to is the Holidays that come during the fall season. Thanksgiving is one of my favorites. Its a time where most of my extended family gets together. Some I haven't seen for a very long time. I love my family and I love being with them. Our Thanksgivings consist of the regular spread of food . We usually hold it at a church since there are so many of us. So after dinner we usually play volleyball or Basketball. We also just hang out and play lots of different board and card games. Its something that I look forward to every year. We must never forget to mention my Mom's amazing dutch apple pie. She has made the pie every year for as long a I can remember because no one will let her make anything else.

So yes. the colors that are beginning to pop on the mountains are very exciting for me.
