it's fall - afterall


fall is by far our most favorite time of year.  the cool crisp air, the smell of flames in fire pits, making smores, mugs of hot tea, the warmth of the sun on your face with the breeze blowing, the colors of the changing leaves, the pumpkins, the greenness of the grass, are just a few of the things we love about this season. 

who doesn't love carving pumpkins, handing out candy, and eating caramel?  there are just so many fantastic things about fall and especially october.  nc's state fair is in october.  last year i eyeballed a krispy kreme hamburger but did not have the guts to order it.  i've lusted after it all year.  friday - one week from today - that hamburger is mine.

last october i got to go visit my good friend "D" in texas.  this october i got to spend some quality time with my sisters and soak up some family lovin's.  my family thought i was just a little wacky when i laid in the weeds to get the photo of the dandelion, but i just could not resist.  it's got fall written all over it.

Just wanted you to know I've thought about and prayed for you guys a lot lately. How are you doing with everything? Anything new going on? I wanted to email you but couldn't find an address. Just know that you are not alone in this crazy and hard time; we're standing with you in prayer...
