Oh What A Beautiful Day

Well this may be the last really nice day of the year. It is gorgeous outside, the thermometer in the truck said it was 72 degrees. Can you believe it is November 10th and it's 72 degrees outsid? I love the fall. The crisp air, the smell of cinnamon when you walk into stores, the thought of a yummy thanksgiving dinner in just a couple of weeks, the leaves changing color, the sound of leaves crunching beneath your feet, warm sweaters, hats, and scarves, cooking up some warm soup, having hot dinners again. I think fall is my favorite time of year. Of course I think I say that every season. Plus I love that we have seasons. When we were living in California, it's the same season all year long, and it was kind of depressing to me. I love how life changes, even for the bad sometimes, because we always have something to look forward to. If it's the same all the time then you don't really have anything to look forward to and you can't appreciate the magical moments when they do come. I'm just so happy to be here and be alive.
