i love FALL because...

i took all of these pictures on our glorious afternoon walk today and couldn't stop thinking about ALL of the reasons i LOVE the FALL!
noses get rosy and shiny...and OH so CUTE!
the corn stalks are so beautifully brittle,

the colors of the leaves are VIBRANT!
the leaves crunch under my stroller

and make rustling SoundS on the pavement when the wind blowS....ahhh, so peaceful...

i LOVE:
the crisp air
the smell of cold "air" (whatever that means)
half naked trees with leaves all around their trunks.
pumpkins, pumpkins, pumpkins!!!
sweaters.
coats.
gloves.
scarves.
baking.
cooking warm food, cozy food!
hot chocolate (in my coco motion)
heat blankets.
blankets!
heaters and fire places!!!
did i mention i LOVE the cold!?
snuggling on the couch watching a movie.
getting excited for turkey and sweet potatoes...and few new recipes this year, for once!
(sorry ryan clan, i've got to mix it up. the green beans are out and the creamy veggie baked medley is in, along with cheezzzzy rolls & pumpkin cheesecake b/c honestly pumpk pie has never really sparked me)
