Living in the Seattle area, fall has to be one of the best seasons, especially September and the beginning of October. Very little rain, and the temperature is just about perfect to be out and about and enjoy the fall colors that abounds us.
2. Wearing cozy sweaters and boots.

12. Football. I don't follow or watch football, but for some reason I really like it when it's the background noise. It just sounds like fall.

13. The rain. I know, it's absolutely crazy but I love the first rain of fall. I like being indoors and listening to the pitter-patter of the rain. However, after weeks and months of it, I do change my mind.

16. The start of a NEW school year. Don't get me wrong, I do love the summer break to be with my kids more, and having the break from routines and schedules. But after a couple months, I long for schedules and routines. The beginning of school has always felt like a clean slate to me, more than the New Year. I make to do lists and resolutions for the school year, not the calendar year.

17. Decorating the house for fall and Halloween.

18. Organizing, purging and deep cleaning. I do this in the fall and the spring.
19. Halloween! The fun of trick or treating with the kids, and CANDY, duh!!
and 20. Thanksgiving. Taking a moment to really be thankful for what we have and spending some precious moments with the family.
