Dear Fall,

I didn't think I would be ready for you just yet.

You know, due to the fact that it SNOWED well into the end of June this year...

But man, I am loving me some new school clothes, and freshly sharpened pencils, and a return to structure, and hot breakfast, and kids running down our sidewalks with way-too-big backpacks bobbing in their wake...

I am loving the crisp air, and the return of light sweaters and flowy blowy cardigans.

And as much as I loath football, I certainly don't mind all of the college football parties that come complete with hot dogs, seven layer dips, root beer, and conversations with lovely people.
Photobucket
And I'm loving the ripe gardens and the bounty of fresh, colorful veggies they produce.
Photobucket
I even bought a small stack of 20 cent spiral notebooks the other day... just because they were calling to me. {Seriously. They wanted to come live in my house and have very important lists and room-design sketches written in them all the live-long day. They were practically begging me to take them home. How could I resist, honestly?}

Today I am sniffing sharpened pencils {yeah, you heard me}, cooking a pancake breakfast, and enjoying the loveliness that IS September.

What are YOU doing today?

The girls at communal global want to know!

I did have to re-read that one sentence! I think I'm ready for fall, but I'm not 100% certain of that just quite yet.

Aw! The girls at communal global are producing gorgeous pics still! (Not that I had any doubts about that.) I think I'll have more time in a year when I'm settled in my shiny new place. (Wherever it may be.)

Love the pictures of cute Tennyson! I am still trying to decide if I am ready for fall. I LOVE fall and everything that comes with it, but I don't want cold for a very long time! "Crisp" and "cool" are okay though :)
