FALLing Leaves...

So, I really noticed this weekend that Fall is indeed here.
The leaves are changing colors.

There is a crisp chill in the air, as well as that wonderful smokey smell.

Some people have started to decorate with pumpkins and scarecrows.

I LOVE IT!

This is my absolute favorite time of year!

So, to honor that and my new baby I thought it would be fun to give away a scrap snack or two.

I will pick a random winner on Tuesday (10-9-07 "Hailey's Due Date") at 5pm PST.

Simply leave a comment on here telling me what you love most about this time of year!

One entry per person please.

Thanks!

I love this time of year too! I just moved from Cali to Ohio on Friday and can't wait to experience actual season changes. Especially fall! My favorites the colors changing and cool crisp weather. So many other things...boots, fires, pumpkins...

I'm in OH too LOL. I love the smell in the air- I don't know what it is, but it smells fresher and cleaner than in summertime

This time of the year is wonderful with all the warm colors. Here the weather has been a little weird, it was in the 80's the past few days and now dropping to high 60's. We still have not gotten a lot of color change here yet. I hope we will. It looks like most the leaves are just falling off the trees (green) and changing once they drop. I love all the fall smells, pumpkin, cinnamon, apples you name it.

I am with you I love the smell of the cool cripp air ( but we are still having low 90's in my area of Kentucky) I like to see the frost on the windows, it is facinating to see the shapes it leaves on your windows.

ps. I really like your site.

The thing that I love most about this time of year is that it starts to cool down and I can drag out all my sweaters. Love that. Also, congratulations on the new baby girl, and relax, and just enjoy her!

I love everything about this time of year. My birthday is in October so I'm sure that has something to do with it! I love Halloween and pumpkins, I used to work at a pumpkin patch and that was very fun! I also love Haunted Houses and the cooler weather. So much fun stuff to do in the fall months, I love it all!

Linda said...

My favorite part of this year is when the leaves change colors and I love the cooler tempatures.

I love Fall! After years in CA we are experiencing our first Fall in a long time and I am in love with it!

I am originally from Ohio, living now in Missouri. I love the colors, the smells and the cool crisp air. I love falling leaves, pumpkins and watching my puppy play with leaves and sticks.

KarenSue said...

I do love how it starts to cool down and my cat snuggles with me at night.
and the scents associated with fall, and the return of pumpkin pie. yummmm

Living in the mountains of Tennessee, there's nothing more beautiful than the Spectacular Fall colors around here. I love to sit on my back deck and just take in the view!

Pam said...

Hi!!! :) I love Halloween and decorating for Halloween. I love the colors of fall and the pumpkins. I wish it would last a little longer though. I am in Nashville and it is still in the 90's here. We will go from hot, hot, hot to cold!!!!!!

Fall hasn't really shown up here in Greenville, SC yet but I am certainly ready for it. My favorite part of Fall are the fall colored trees on the mountain. I also love the smell of burning leaves :)

This is absolutely my favorite time of year. Love the cool nights - cold enough to snuggle under a blanket at a football game or while sitting outside, the crisp air, all the bright colors - oranges and reds and yellows and browns, leaves falling, all the pumpkins and gourds, families coming together to start the holiday season. What's not to Love!

Fall is by FAR my favorite time of year too. I love nearly everything about it, the cool crisp air, the colored leaves, the fun decorations. But my favorite part of fall is visiting the cider mill. Mmmmmm fresh cider and donuts!

Nikki said...

I love the colors. The reds, oranges, and browns. I love the pumpkins. I love the falling leaves, jumping in the piles is priceless. I love Thanksgiving, the dinner and family time. I love the weather, not too hot and not too cold. My goodness. You can't help but be in love with it all!

I work for the Dept of Forestry and I love this time of year because the rains have started and we are officially out of fire season! Life is back to normal and I can start planning crops again!

Katherine said...

I wish where I lived we would see the leaves change but we don't. They go from beautiful green to ugly brown. My favorite part of this time of year is the 1st cold front. It is exhilarating after a hot summer and I love watching everyone dig out their coats, start the heater, etc... It is also a grea time for a drive with my hubby. The sun stills shows a bit at the beginning of the drive and the moon shows up at the tail end. I love it!

I love football games! With 2 boys that have played for years, it just isn't fall without it!

Rachael said...

This is my fave time of year too!! I love decorating for it!! The colors, the crispness, ahhhh! Now if it would just arrive here!! We are still having 80 degree temps! LOL

I have to settle for enjoying the photos and descriptions you *seasoned* gals have on your blogs cuz down here in Texas it's just another late summer day, pout. If I close my eyes in the a/c and imagine real hard, I'm there, too! LOL

What I love - I guess that it doesn't (usually) get any hotter, LOL.

Raquel said...

I love this time of year also. Although, I am missing the start of it in Washington state. We just moved and it still feels like summer here in TX.
