Thursday Thirteen

I have been wanting to do this TT for a little while, but it was still to warm here in Iowa. Well no longer! The temps have fallen and fall is in the air. Here are 13 things I love about fall.

13. The leaves changing. It is really pretty to see all of the colors.

12. The train ride. This is the second year we have taken the train ride in the fall. It is so great to see all of God's glory and the creation that He has made.

11.Change in the weather. I like the cooler weather. I do not so much enjoy the cold, but the cooler weather is nice.

10. Snuggle time. Cooler weather brings about snuggle time with Andy and the kids.

9. Getting things done. I tend to put off things that need to be done in the house because we spend a lot of time outside while it is warm, so fall brings about cleaning time.

8. Holidays - when fall sets in I know that the holidays are just around the corner and I will be able to spend time with family.

7. Thanksgiving - I love getting together at Thanksgiving. I love to spend time with my family and friends.

6. Aggie football. I love to watch our Aggies Win. We do not watch a lot of football. We enjoy college football and watch our Aggies every chance we get

5. Yard work - I love to spend time outside with my family, raking the leaves and trimming back the hedges for the winter.

4. Craft Fairs - In the fall all the craft fairs come to town with all the good for Christmas. I love to go and look and buy.

3. Christmas Shopping - I love to go Christmas shopping. I love buying presents for people and looking forward to the time we get to spend together.

2. Soup - I love when the weather turns cold enough for soup. I love to come into the house and smell what has been cooking and getting ready to enjoy that meal with my family.

1. Spending time with family - The fall always seem to bring more time with family and friends. I love this time of year because we get to catch up and visit.
