Three Things : Three Giveaways

Fall is my absolute favorite time of year. I love getting the yard and flower beds ready for the first snow, changing the decor over the fireplace, college football and making a couple of annual trips - one to the Longaberger homestead and the other to Amish country. I'm lucky to live where we fully experience all four seasons!

Pumpkin Spice Lattes * Visit to Pumpkin Patch * Hot Apple Cider * Crisp cool air * Nature changing color * Cozy sweaters * Flannel PJs * pots of soup * Halloween Costumes * extra blankets on the bed * baking goodies * first fire in fireplace * feel like sewing * damp morning air * staying home and not spending money * reading *

I miss the crisp feel in the air I grew up with in Virginia and the Chilly mornings. Texas doesn't really have a fall season, so when I feel like fall, I make soup and pumpkin muffins. I guess I celebrate with comfort food.

I love Fall. This year has been one of the best. The weather has been perfect. My favourite thing to do is jump and roll around in a big pile of leaves. I'm soon 34 and I still love to do that!! Also, going for Sunday drives. Just driving around looking at the leaves. Beautiful.

In the fall we start with pumpkin rolls and pumpkin pies. There are lots of trips to the pumpkin patch for lots of pictures. We do alot of trips there because there are always new pumpkins to get. Taking pictures of the beautiful fall foliage in Ohio and playing in the leaves. We love to take long walks on the trails to see the colors change day by day. Then there is the leave art with the grandkids and tons of layouts. Love this season just don't like the winter.

wow nice give-aways! I love to celebrate fall with decorating the whole house. Each year we go to the local apple orchard to pick up a new treasure. They have such cute crafts I can't resist buying something little to add to my collection.

Fall is my most favorite time of year. I enjoy canning and baking and fall is the perfect time of year for both. It is a great start for the holiday season.

Here in Phoenix, we celebrate by going OUTSIDE...

We celebrate fall by going to my parents house and helping them with their leaves. They are in their 80's and have a pretty big yard (3 acres). My husband, son and I all help. Then we stay for dinner that my mom cooks for us.

Now that we live in Phoenix, we don't get to "do fall" like we used to....but we still try to go to a pumpkin farm--in T-shirts & shorts rather than all bundled up in sweaters & jeans! I really miss fall!

I celebrate by pulling out all my sweaters. I LOVE cool weather!

Fall is my favorite season of all. My favorite way to celebrate fall is by buying a brand new pair of jeans! It is just so wonderful to pull on a pair of comfortable jeans after the long hot summer!!!

We celebrate the Fall season by going to the local farm to enjoy a day of fun. They have horse draw hay rides out to the pumpkin patch and corn maize. They also have a petting farm and lots of yummy food! I love everything about this season!

We recently went to the Punkin Chunkin where the longest punkin flew 4000 feet! Amazing day in Morton,Illinois. Great fun for my sweet boy.

With the kids getting older, there is no more going out and buying costumes. There still is a few pumpkins to carve though. I don't think you ever really outgrow that! It is about lightening all those wonderful smelling fall candle scents. My favorites today...Farmhouse apple and Havest. So yummy! I also love making cobblers and warm fruity creations. What has become the most fun is watching my husband decorate and entertain people with his hearse on Halloween!

There is so much I do to celebrate fall, my favorite season! I always make a new fall journal which I write/create/scrap in fr the months of Sept, Oct, and Nov. There are several craft fairs in my area that I have to go to every year even if I don't buy anything. Always make several trips to the local apple orchard/pumpkin patch (gotta indulge in hote cider donuts at least once!). On Saturdays I treat myself to a Starbucks Pumpkin Spice Latte (nonfat, of course, so I can indulge throughout the season!) :-) I make a big deal out of the first day we can build a fire in the fireplace...get out all the cozy throws, pop popcorn, make hot chocolate, and settle in for a great movie! I love to make lists and prepare for Thanksgiving and Christmas. I could go on and on...I just love this season so much! Of course living in New England could have something to do with that! :-)

Allie you always have so so so many comments!
Such awesome give aways!
I celebrate fall by breaking out my cardigans & cuddly jackets- although in Houston they are only used for say an hour a day. But I love love love apple cider & pumpkin butter in the fall! I love fall:)

Baking, cleaning, getting the house ready for the cold weather ( I stained our deck all by myself), and starting to make Christmas cards and gifts.

We celebrate by going to an apple orchard and getting fresh cider and caramel apples - yum! We bring home a pumpkin and have a carving party with our entire extended family and eat roasted pumpkin seeds!
