Fall is Here!

Today marks the first official day of fall and this household is ready. Sweatshirts have been washed in anticipation of their first wear, pumpkin latte's were enjoyed and Halloween decorations have gone up. We welcomed the fall weather with open arms last weekend but it's felt even more like fall this week. We are enjoying our delicious apples from Mapleside Farms and the breeze coming into my office from open windows feels so good throughout the day. 

I realize the majority of America is mostly excited for football and less heat, but I'm not in that boat. To me, it's the frigid weekend mornings where I need Derek's arms to keep me warm or wearing big, oversized fuzzy socks around the house and of course, mums. I love mums and their perfect sphere shapes. Oh how they freshen up my front porch steps each September.

To me, fall means that we're that much closer to my favorite holiday and Drew's birthday. It means footie PJ's keeping my baby warm at night and beautiful leaves to look at during my crisp, cool morning runs. Although technically not my favorite season, I do love fall and what it brings to the table. Let's hope fall decides to stick around a bit longer up here in the northeast this year before winter weather rears it's ugly face. I'm not ready for snow and less time outside. I want more time

What is your favorite part of fall?
