FALL FEVER

our front door! :)

I think I fell a little more in love with Pete when he came in to the kitchen today and said, "Man I love fall days!" This comment was music to my ears-even though-his love for fall stems from the never-ending football games that invade our TV 24-7. He recently set us up on direct TV (we now have a hideous dish attached to our deck rail). This new TV set up gives us "NFL SUNDAY TICKET" which basically (according to pete) lets him watch every football game known to man. He even can set it up so the TV will flip back and forth to multiple games at the same time. OH BOY!

Even though it is hard for me to admit it...football is one of the reasons I love fall. I love hearing football on TV while I burn fall-scented candles and make fallish meals or treats in the kitchen. I love the way the weather changes and the air feels. I love busting out new coats and boots and turning up the heat in my car. I love it that Pete just brought us home a pumpkin spice and gingerbread lattes from Peet's coffee. AND I love taking Nellie for walks in the park and watching the leaves change.

There are many times while living in the Pacific NorthWest that I say, "Man I miss the sunshine!" or "Ug I'm sick of this rain!" BUT when fall rolls around-I fall back in love with this area and all the seasons we get to experience. If you know me...you know I get fall fever BAD. It is here and I'm ready to indulge!
