Three Things : Three Giveaways

I love fall! We spend a lot of time outside enjoying the weather (in Arizona it finally starts to cool down by the end of October!). But I also love to get cozy and enjoy lots of books and scrapbooking time, play board games with my husband, and visit family.

First off is the pumpkin patch at the Arboretum! Can't forget the Halloween costume of course!
Next, hunting season! Yes, I am a girl and I hunt. I am the youngest of 5 girls so I didn't have much choice :)
My Daddy has taken me hunting ever since I was 5/6yrs old. I love it! Being in the outdoors with you, God and hopefully a big buck is so peaceful. Seeing nature in all its glory- amazing! The leaves turnung colors and falling to the ground, watching the squirels, seeing a skunk pass you by (and not spray!!!). What a wonderful world we live in!

We don't have much of a true "fall" in Las Vegas, but the weather is nice, so we just simply spend more time outside playing, eating and enjoying the short-lived season.

Decorating for halloween, carving pumpkins, and of course trick or treating!!!

oh, isn't fall fun! out come the cozy, happy sox; hot chocolate with marshmallows; cozy blankets on the couch; candles lit to make the house pretty; pinecones and glitter; and most important ....lots of baking and candy-making!! yay!

Great kits. I need to check them out and see if I "need" any!
My favorite thing about fall is the cooler weather and the end of my allergies!

I can't wait for fall, it's my favorite season of the year. I love the crisp feeling of the air and the beautiful colors. We go to the apple orchard every year where we pick our own apples and go on hayrides.

pumpkin anything - bread, scones, pies, soup...love it.

We love to go for a drive into the foothills and enjoy the fall colors that Mother Nature has presented us with. Although we don't get the extreme vibrant colors like they do in the midwest, the colors here are very pretty, and it always makes for a relaxing day!

In my perfect world, it would be Autumn all year round! (OK, maybe a few weeks of the other seasons, but then right back to Fall!). I'm addicted to anything pumpkin, so the minute that pumpkin spice latte goes up at Starbucks, I'm a happy girl! We celebrate the season with lots of pumpkin and apple baked goods, visiting the pumpkin patch, hayrides, a pumpkin carving party, decorating the house, and daily walks to the park all cozy in corduroy pants and sweaters. Autumn in Oregon is hard to beat!

fall my second favorite season
picking pumpkin and roasted pumpkin seed and pies and cake made with pumpkin and HALLOWEEN candy and funn costume and smoke meat cook all night in the cool night air yummy

Baking with pumpkin and taking walks in the woods. :)

Lots of school functions. halloween happings at the elementary school, monster mash for the big kids,haunted hay rides with the girl scouts to many to list

I celebrate Fall by busting out my winter robe, and slippers, and turning the heat back on in my house. Pull up dead plants, place some strategic pumpkins and enjoy the changing colors of fall leaves.

Fall traditions...I pull out everyone's boots and clean them and spray with with protectors. Then I shop to get a new pair of boots for myself and for the girls. I love my boots! It might sound wierd but I seriously get excited over this. And in my mind...it's fall when my boots are ready.

HAPPY AUTUMN ALI!!!
We celebrate with lot'sa PUMPKIN PIE....we have it almost every weekend, can you believe that? My boys love it and so do I. I also make Pumpkin muffins and tons of gingerbread cookies. I guess I bake way too much, but it it warms the house up with yummy smells and keeps our bellies happy ;P

Thanks for the fun contest. I celebrate fall by enjoying everything Halloween. Decorations, haunted houses, costumes. I love it all. After Halloween, I like thinking ahead to Thanksgiving and basketball season!

I like to celebrate fall by being outside, enjoying the colors, the fresh air and the leaves.

I got got married 2 months ago...my hubby and i are going to try and start and new tradition from now on of going to a pumpkin patch every year... i also help my mom decorate the house for the holidays and our whole family gets together on thanksgiving and spends the whole day just watching the parade on tv and talking and eating yummy food! i love FALL!!!

I love fall. I love the cooler weather as well as the holidays. We celebrate for fall by going to a harvest festival, going to a pumpkin patch, and decorating for halloween and Thanksgiving. I also love cooking more comfort-type meals.
Thanks for the opporunity!!!
