Enjoying it while it lasts...

How I know Fall is here:

Gorgeous color starting to emerge. Leaves falling everywhere.

Kids are already digging through the Halloween costume box and putting up decorations.

They beg daily to get our pumpkins and carve them right away.

It's chilly in the morning when we wake up, but the sun is still warming our afternoons.

We're finishing up our first cold of the season.

I am making soup several times a week.

Aevryn is so thrilled will her "new" fall wardrobe that she changes her clothes a minimum of three times a day.

I'm getting the urge to hole up inside and make lovely, fuzzy crafts. This may also be related to being pregnant.

Baking. So much creative, inventive baking is going on right now.

We're going to an apple cider pressing party this weekend!

I've already started planning out my holiday giving-making "schedule".
