Of all the seasons, fall has to be my favorite. From the time I was young, I looked forward to the beginning of September because it meant that it was time for fall things and activities! 'Basic White Girl' or not, I think everyone can agree that fall has to be the best season of all. While I could sit here and list off all of the many reasons why I have fallen in love with fall (get it?), here are just a few reasons why fall is hands down the best season of all!
1. Leaves changing colors
GiphyThere is nothing prettier than driving past a bunch of trees that have an assortment of colors. Red, orange, yellow, they all make being outside just a little more colorful!
2. Sweater weather
GiphyI absolutely love getting to break out my thick sweaters and cozy clothes. Being able to be outside with a bunch of layers without being too cold is just the best.
3. The return of warm drinks
GiphyBetween hot chocolate, teas, and even the Pumpkin Spice Lattes, I am always grateful when I can order hot drinks and not feel like I'm boiling from the inside.
4. The flavors
GiphyPumpkin is one of my favorite flavors ever. Luckily, during fall, it can be found in so many things. Along with cinnamon and apple, I just love having an excuse to make fall flavored things!
5. Apple picking. And apple cider. And apple donuts. Pretty much anything apple.
GiphyIt's tradition in my family to go to a farm and get the fresh apples from the orchard, the fresh apple cider, and most importantly the apple donuts. I wait all year for them, so I'm always ready for September to roll around.
6. School
GiphyOk, you might not agree with this point, but I'm a teacher, so I get excited about going back to school. There is something about getting back into a routine and getting yourself organized that it so satisfying. Plus, you get to see people you haven't seen all summer!
7. THE BUGS HAVE RETURNED TO HELL
GiphyI don't think this needs an explanation. I don't like bugs, so I like when they are gone.
9. Fairs
GiphyI love fall fairs because they are so full of food and fun and fresh air. I get excited for when they come around every year!
10. Fall campfires > summer campfires
GiphyI enjoy campfires more when I'm not melting from the heat of the fire, but instead it keeps me nice and toasty.
11. An extra hour of sleep
GiphyThanks to Daylight Savings, we get another blessed hour of sleep in the fall. Go ahead and try to tell me you don't need it.
12. The return of good television
GiphyThe summer TV drought ends in mid-September and I cannot be more grateful. I mean, I just miss crying my eyes out because of "This Is Us" every week!
13. It ushers in the holiday season!
GiphyI LOVE the holidays, so when fall hits, I know it's almost time. After all, it's the most wonderful time of the year!
