Here are my 13 Things I love about Fall:

1.  Crispy mornings and cool evenings.

2.  Being able to wear a sweatshirt and shorts at the same time.

3.  All our animals being *frisky* from the cooler weather.

4.  That all too familiar coolness in the breezes like a friend you've not seen a long while who comes up behind you whispering in your ear to surprise you.

5.  The late afternoon sun.

6.  Taking long walks without sweating to death.

7.  Smelling barbeques and cookouts from not too far away that carry in the breeze.

8.  A-P-P-L-E-S

9.  The last cut of hay in the pasture across from us with its random hay bales scattered across it.

10. Breakfast on the back porch.

11. Opening up the windows.

12. P-U-M-P-K-I-N-S and fall decorations.

13. The first day of fall is one of my favorite days of the year - it always "falls" on our younger son's birthday and on Saturday - this year's first day of Fall - he will be 13!!!!
