Summer is gone and the best season is finally here... fall. The leaves change and leave the road a beautiful color. The weather is colder and it makes outside activities much more enjoyable.
Here are some of the reasons to love fall:
1. Leaves Change Colors.
The green leaves will never compare to the orange and red ones. Who knew leaves could be so pretty while laying on the ground? It makes all the scenery beautiful and makes for great photography.
2. Cooler Weather.
The summer heat is finally gone and we can enjoy the crisp, cool weather. It's a perfect excuse to curl up in a cozy blanket and read a book. It makes it acceptable to drink coffee at anytime of the day.
4. Pumpkin Spiced Everything.
Need I say more? Pumpkin spiced coffee, candles, lotion, cakes, and muffins. Whoever thought to put together the flavor of pumpkin mixed with cinnamon and nutmeg is pure genius.
3. Football.
Football fever is definitely a thing in the fall. College football is one of the best things God graced us with. Nothing's better than finger foods, wearing your favorite teams colors, and screaming at the TV.
4.Comfier Clothes.
For three months you get to live in over sized sweatshirts and assorted flannels. Those over sized sweaters and sweatshirts can cover up that that pudgy belly you acquired while eating way too much cookies and Thanksgiving pie. And for girls, fall means leggings. The essential piece to every girls' fall attire.
5.Bonfires.
You know you love them. There's just something about sitting around a fire with your family and friends during the cooler months. A fire, a beer, and some shared stories makes for a good night. And lets not forget s'mores!!
6. Soups.
I don't know about you, but soup is on the menu every week at our house during the fall. There is endless possibilities with the kinds of soup you can have. Coming home from a long, cool day to hot soup in the crockpot is one of the best feelings. It fills the house with a delicious aroma and warms you up.
7. Halloween.
Halloween is one of the best holidays. Behind Christmas that is. "Hocus Pocus" plays round the clock and candy is found everywhere. Halloween is the one day you can dress up as anything you want to be without anybody judging you for it. People have costume parties with lots of food and dancing. Pumpkin patches are everywhere so you can find that perfect pumpkin to carve. Haunted houses are open every weekend.
8.Boots.
Everybody's go-to shoes in the fall. We love a good excuse to wear a cute pair of boots. They're appropriate and stylish, whether it's a pair of duck boots or UGGS.
We only get to enjoy these things for 3 short months. So get out of this house this fall and enjoy the little things. Spend time with family and go to some haunted houses. Drive down the back roads and enjoy the beautiful scenery. Drink lots of coffee and eat lots of s'mores. Invite all of your friends and family over for a bonfire. Keep warm with lots of soup and over sized sweaters. Don't take it for granted. It won't be here for long.
