Fall is upon us and for my whole life summer has been my favorite season but fall sure is growing on me. Back to school and cozy sweaters are what fall is all about and I am in full support of what fall has to offer. As the crisp autumn days are closing in, here are some reasons to get excited about fall.

1. Leaves

I love the green trees of summer, but there is something to be said about the beautiful golden hues that fall brings to the world.

2. Hikes

Going on summer hikes in the fall makes for a change in scenery as the colors change, and you won't be sweating buckets in the sweltering heat because its probably only 60 degrees out.

3. Reads

Fall is the best time to start a new book, or reread an old one. Dust off your old Harry Potter books because they are dying to be read this fall.

4. Friends

Back to school in the fall means back to friends that you haven't seen in months. Reconnecting with old friends and making new friends is something to look forward to every fall.

5. Foods

Fall brings a variety of delicious baked goods that only ever come out during this season, and seriously treats covered in cinnamon (especially homemade ones) will always treat me.

6. Knits

WEAR ALL THE SWEATERS! Gloves, hats, sweaters, socks means fall is the best.

7. Drinks

Tea and cocoa and cinder taste better in the fall because the temperature outside and the temperature in the mug are perfect matches.

8. Blankets

The weather outside is perfectly chilly, which makes the temperature inside perfect for cuddling up with lots of blankets, and makes the sleeping temperature perfect.

9. Pumpkins

Pumpkin flavored anything is absolutely delicious, and picking pumpkins at your local patch is such a fun fall thing to do.

10. Bonfires

Fall bonfires after football games are the perfect combination.

11. Outfits

Fall is the best because you can wear different variations of the same outfit every day and still be comfy and cute.

12. Movies

New movies always come out in the fall, and lets no forget about the month of Disney movies every October that WE LIVE FOR.

13. HALLOWEEN

Last but not least, fall is the best because halloween is the best. The decorations and costumes and the candy make it number one.
