These are a Few of my Favorite FALL Things


"Spring passes and one remembers one's innocence. Summer passes and one remembers one's exuberance. Autumn passes and one remembers one's reverence. Winter passes and one remembers one's perserverance."    -Yoko Ono 
 
 Well, Fall is officially upon us. I love the changing of seasons! I don't care if it's summer to autumn, autumn to winter, winter to spring, or spring to summer. I love them all!! I love how different all the seasons are and the variety of things to partake in for each one! It's also a wonderful reminder that change can be a incredible and beautiful thing. The changing seasons remind me that God is in control and he knows what he's doing. "Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new." 2 Corinthians 5:17 All we have to do is stay in his perfect will and enjoy the scenery, which for me is usually the hard thing to do... This year, I've been trying to really enjoy all of these changes, and take a part in some of the typical fall traditions. I'm hoping that with each change of weather I will take the time to notice and enjoy the blessings around me. These are a few of my favorite Autumn things: (in no particular order...)

1.) Apple Picking


2.) Pumpkin Carving


3.) Corn Mazes




4.) Baking Pies



5.) Trick-or-Treating

Not from this year, but it sure is FUN!

6.) Bonfires


7.) Jumping in the Leaves

Again, not from this year, but man I miss her!
8.) Watching Hocus Pocus


9.) Sunflowers


10.) Grandma Jenny's Birthday (she's 92 this year!)


11.) The Changing Leaves


12.) Jackets, Scarfs and Boots



13.) Warm Drinks


14.) The Legend of Sleepy Hallow (Narrated by BING CROSBY)



15.) BRONCO Football!!

I am so thankful for all of the blessings that God has surrounded me with. This Fall, I am truly blessed.
