I love fall because it means the holiday season is coming up. Fall just seems to remind me of all the fun things I have to look forward to. And, I love wearing sweats on Saturday when it is kinda chilly out.
Amy says
To me, summer is active, active, active. Fall is a time to slow down and cool off. You've got Friday night football games, colors, cool breezes (open windows!!) and comfort food. I love all of those aspects of fall. As a teacher, fall is going back to school and making a difference in lives.
It is just a cool time of year!
Tiffany says
My favorite thing about Fall is the slightly cooler weather, With the record breaking heat we've had here this summer the Fall temps will be so welcome!

My favorite thing about fall is the cooler mornings, where you can almost see your breath in the air and you have to wear sweaters to stay warm. Love your blog!!
