For those of you who know me, I LOVE LOVE LOVE autumn. I love Halloween. I love the smell of leaves and pumpkins. I love the changing of colors of the trees. I love autumn. . . in the East coast or Midwest. Texas is a strange state and I after living here for nearly 5 years, I still cannot get used to 80-90 degree days in October. It is so strange. Yes, some of the trees do not have leaves, but that is because of the horrible drought.
We finally got a cool front and that means 2 things: 1. we can wear long sleeves (only in the morning as it will still hit the mid-80s) and 2. there is a huge risk for wildfires. Still, I have decided to enjoy this cool front by
chugging gracefully sipping some pumpkin spice coffee (courtesy of Green Mountain Coffee) and taking Ellie out for a pre-pumpkin patch photo shoot.
Enjoy!

| To get this lovely smile, I had to put a mini pumpkin on my head. Oh the things I will do for a great photo. |

| Oh my goodness! A green, living plant! |

| That's right! I have roses blooming in late October. |
Cute photo shoot! Fall is my favorite too, but I mostly have to pretend here in California....or go up to the mountains...and I've had roses bloom in December :)
ReplyDeleteI have a friend who moved from the Midwest to Texas...she is always complaining about the lack of fall and spring and the brutal summer heat.
