Three Things : Three Giveaways

Fall around our home finds us gathering wood, finishing home-improvement projects,
simple "soup-and-bread" suppers, and listening to the geese as they fly by.

i love making pumpkin muffins + homemade chicken + noodles! and i love being able to wear long sleeve shirts again!

we just moved north from south TX where we had NO fall! this year we are enjoying the change of seasons (what a remarkable concept)! my daughter and i pick up brightly colored leaves that have already fallen to put in our collection. i am also planning on making stovetop cider to drink and perfume the air! have a good one!

Hmmm, fall, I do love it so. Pick apples, break out the sweaters, make hot cider, plan costumes, rake leaves, get the Chritmas card picture by Halloweeen and I am so happy. Carve pumpkins, BOO neighbors and this year do a lot of canvassing for a very improtant election

Fall is our time for just being outside. We live in an area of the country that is really hot in the summer so fall is a welcome temperature break. We live in the mountains so we take long walks and drives and watch nature turn colors.

Where I grew up we didn't celebrate Halloween, but now with a 3 yr old son, I can dress up and go trick and treating with him!!!

Fall is hot cider, jumping in leaf piles carving pumpkins and then scrapbooking it all!

pumpkins galore, inside the house and outside, a visit to the pumpkin patch, indoor garlands & wreaths, pumpkin bread, family photo shoot, planning for the coming holidays, enjoying friends and neighbors, make soup and breads, take my daughter on leaf gathering adventures, apple picking-so much fun and great ways to celebrate living

We are planning to join our friends for a flag football game before the Thansgiving meal. Parents vs. the kiddos. Should be amazing fun!

Fall is probably my favorite season. It's also a very busy time for me, with October hosting my birthday and (Canadian) Thankgiving. There's also something about finally grabbing that cuddly throw on the sofa and wanting to use it. We get out our "harvest Decorations", turn the pilot light back on the fireplace, and make sure we have a good supply of yummy vanilla scented candles strewn about the house, to fill it, with a nice, comforting scent!

Hi Ali
After long hot summers in Phoenix, we celebrate fall by being outside as much as possible. Riding bikes, taking walks and lounging on the patio watching my kids play. We are still waiting for the truly cool weather! It is supposed to be 94 degrees today! Thanx!

We always go to a little apple farm and enjoy the day picking apples and berries. For Halloween, we do a haunted garage. DH and our kids stage the garage with scary stuff and music. It's a big production and we also get lots of volunteer help from neighborhood kids who will even for go trick-or-treating. We even had a Dad from up the street ask if he could help too!

I celebrate the fall season by camping with my family in our pop-up, and sitting around the fire with a mug of hot chocolate!

pumpkin patch, haunted hayride and winter home preparations!
thanks Ali!

Roasted butternut squash soup! Yum.

where i live, we really do not have traditional seasons and so we have to "make" our own fall. i decorate the house with leave garlands and pressed prints and pumpkins and gourds. during halloween, we had the ghouls, witches, spiders, and skeletons.
i burn candles with the smells of the season and i make many harvest meals - lots of things made from pumpkins and squashes and corn.
we also have a gratitude journal that i have family members write in all that they are thankful for as we prepare for thanksgiving.
i love fall.

I celebrate fall with new pieces in my wardrobe (lots of warm pretty things). I like to eat/make anything with pumpkin in it (pumpkin chocolate chip cookies... yum!). And then, there is always spending time with people you love on Thanksgiving (and watching Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory... the old one). Love this time of year so so MUCH!

fall festivals, pumpkin carving, and fall pictures of my babies.

Autumn is my FAVORITE time of year. I am enchanted by the colors of autumn. We have a Pumpkin Party every year.. Everyone brings a pumpkin and a covered dish and we carve and eat by the campfire. The kids love it!...well, so do the adults!! Collage of pictures from this years party:

I live in Michigan, so going on a fall color tour is kinda a must.
