ok ok, i know summer hasn't officially ended but today i found myself longing for the upcoming season, which is just around the corner...FALL!
summer in a small college town like provo can be pretty quiet. most students are spending time back home, are off vacationing or {for byu students} are tying the knot & going on their honeymoons ;) ...so, it is pretty clear when summer is on its way out because suddenly the streets are packed with cars & it takes you 15 minutes to drive from your house to the closest grocery store. the rush of returning college students {& anxious new freshman} are slowly finding their way back for a new school year. not to mention the local target and walmart are completely picked over - thanks freshmen parents! nevertheless, all of these small changes mean that fall is slowly approaching & i couldn't be more excited about it!
this summer was much too hot for my liking & i am ready for some chilly days and a chance to wear a sweater again. i also love fall because that means that all of my favorite holidays are right around the corner.
i am looking forward to the sipping hot cocoa while snuggling up on the couch, the sound of football on the tv {am i crazy?}, making holiday crafts, using my oven again, making homemade soups, the smell of hot cider, holiday flicks on tv, finally being able to sleep with the window open, & all of my favorite shows starting up again!
AH! doesn't that sound just perfect right about now? it sure does to me.
Fall is my favorite season! It sounds like all of those Sunday night "football" get-togethers with friends had an impact on you!
