Fall...The Years Last and Loveliest Smile.


Fourteen of the Best Things About Fall: 
1. The changing leaves: The transition from summer to fall provides a brilliant display of warm colors like orange, red and rich browns.
2. Running Outside in the Crisp Autumn Air
3. The Fashion: Coats, SCARFS, Hats, Tights, hoodies
4.  Fall spices- Cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves
5. Fall Festivals, Pumpkin patches, Apple picking
6. Football. I haven't always been into football. But the atmosphere it brings to a group of people that are    living life in community just does something to my soul...In a very good way. I always looked forward to the Sundays, where after church we would have TONS of people over for food and football. I look forward to the days where instead of it being my parents home, it's mine. :)
7.  Fall TV. Psych comes back on in two weeks and I'm so excited!!
8. Hot Chocolate. I love the days where the sky is overcast and dark, chilly nights. I look forward to snuggling up in a blanket with a good cup of hot chocolate and a book.
9. Holiday spirits. With Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years approaching, everyone seems to be spreading holiday cheer with smiles and laughter.
10. PUMPKIN!!! In all forms. Pumpkin pie, pumpkin bread, pumpkin spice latte, pumpkin cookies...
11. Crunchy Leaves
12. Scarves (This is a serious weakness of mine. I love them)
13. Soup! I love my Mom's soup.
14. The Color Yellow...and not the bright yellow like you see on small children but the yellowish brown color that shows up on coffee mugs and walls.
I look forward to fall every year. Fall just seems to usher in the start something new. It always bring a new school year, and it allows for new beginnings. So after a very full summer of learning and changing and finding new things that I want to change and things I need to change in order to become the women God is creating me to be. I'm ready for a new beginning. I ready for change in my life. I'm ready to start pursing the dreams that are rolling around in my mind and to start living life full of anticipation at what God is doing. He's always up to something and that's the coolest part of my life. So look forward to new things and new blogs.
So until next time...This sing is changing my life and my view on men... It's so GOOD! I've listened to it about a hundred times in the last couple days. Have you seen the movie? I want to...Maybe next weekend.

You make me so happy. I know you get tired of me telling you but I honestly could not have dreamed of you becoming any more beautiful, inside and out, and such a Godly Daughter. You make me smile thinking about just how awesome you are. I love you Kristie with all my heart and I'm so proud to be your mom. Keep serving our Lord. XOXO
