Crunchy colorful leaves, warm spicy drinks, and cool nights--fall is on its way! As much as I love summer, fall or autumn, if you will, will always be my favorite season.
But what is it exactly that I and many others love so much about this season?1. The changing leaves.
For starters, fall is one of the most beautiful seasons. The leaves on the trees begin to change from a healthy green to stunning reds and golds.It may sound so cliche and simple, but it is so beautiful. Just imagine driving down a road and seeing all of those beautiful warm colors greeting you.
2. Cool nights.
After months of having to sleep with every air conditioner and/or fan on in the house, it feels nice to turn them all off. It feels nice to not be sweating all night long and to enjoy the comfortable chill outdoors.
3. Festive Foods.
Everything has a lovely pumpkin or apple flavor--coffee, cupcakes, cereals, etc. Also, can we talk about Thanksgiving here, too? Turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, corn, pies--my mouth is watering just thinking about it.
4. Halloween.
Whether you enjoy watching the movies, eating the themed candy, or actually dressing up and going trick-or-treating, Halloween is a holiday everyone celebrates. Maybe you enjoy carving jack-o-lanterns with your family or making spooky snacks with your friends, but whatever it is, there is no denying that Halloween is fun and exciting.
5. Sweaters and snuggles.
I love wearing a nice big sweater and snuggling up with a nice cup of tea. After wearing shorts and t-shirts for the past few months, it is finally cool enough for that big sweater or sweatshirt hanging in the back of your closet. And what pairs better with a sweater than snuggling (with tons of blankets and pillows or your significant other)?
6. Family Football
Whether you watch your brother's high school football team on Friday nights, play it on the front lawn with your parents and cousins, or have it on the TV while you eat greasy food with your family--football is the ultimate fall sport.
