Farewell Summer....Hello Fall!

Today is the first day of fall....hooray!!!!! This is my favorite season, especially on the east coast. The weather is perfect and the scenery is gorgeous (outside of Hudson county, that is) ;) I'll admit we did some fun things this summer......

We loved the water park this summer!


















Christopher rode a horse!....... and we went to the US Open

.....but I'm ready for cooler weather, sweaters, yummy soups to eat for dinner, Halloween, Thanksgiving, no humidity, and yes, even looking forward to the snow of winter. We are going to have a "Welcome Fall" party tonight for FHE. When I mentioned party this morning Christopher kept going on and on about who's birthday it could possibly be. I finally had to say this was going to be a "celebration" instead of a party. We are going to eat some yummy foods like; apple cider, twice baked potatoes, chili cheese dip, and maybe some bacon wrapped smokies....all yummy, warm fall foods. Then maybe we'll snuggle in blankets and watch a movie (even though it's not really that cold yet, haha).
Happy Fall everyone! Hope you enjoy it!

Your fall "celebration" sounds so fun! Christopher... how sweet. Every day is a party for that little guy.

Wish we could be there with you!
It's a little cooler here, but I think we still have some warm days left.

You are such a cute mom with all the great ideas you have for your family! I love fall too. Not too hot and not too cold. We went to Lee Turkey farms on Saturday to pick some apples and when i came home made some apple crisp. Yummmm for fall food!
