Well, it has to be.... there is no mistaking it! It must be Fall!
Case in point:
1. The kids have been sick. First Bug, then Jax. I really hate it when the munchkins are ill, their little bodies hurt, we go through massive quantities of Jello and Propel, and copious amounts of laundry. But I do love, when all they want to do it watch movies and snuggle with me (I know that's rotten, but I miss the cuddles). Thank Goodness, that it was a short illness, only a couple days......and now we are back in the swing of things.
2. It is getting dark at 7:00pm and it is freezing in the mornings.
3. The air smells like fresh rain and falling leaves (could someone market that please, I would buy it!).
4. There are bushels of pumpkins at Walmart.
5. We had to turn the furnace on (Funny story...... Jim got out of bed this week, and it was absolutely freezing in the house. He went to turn on the furnace, it was not happening. After hours messing with the thing, and looking up the make and model on Google, trying to figure out how to fix it, he thought that he would start from the original source and work back. Thinking that we were going to have to replace the furnace, Jim on a whim replaced the batteries in the digital thermometer/controller, and what do ya know......it fired right up! Jim was a little crabby that it took him so long to figure that out, but very thankful that it cost us only 3 dollars to fix!)
So to celebrate fall, my house is decorated, I have "Pumpkin Roll" in my Scentsy warmer, I packed away all of our summer clothes and brought out all the sweaters! Ok Fall, Welcome!
(I'm going to be real crabby if we get another heat spell)






I'm with you! Though I was sad to see summer go, we have fully welcomed Fall at our house! I have a Pumpkin Pie candle burning, and the girls had their first bites of my favorite pumpkin dessert tonight. The weather was sunny but crisp. John blew leaves off the deck tonight. We love you guys and miss you tons and tons and tons. Give those kiddos hugs and kisses from us.
