RE: 10/10/10

Finally, I have some pictures from our 10/10/10 Apple Holler trip.  Lisa took most of the pictures, so I had to wait until she posted them to update the blog site.

A few unfortunate details about our trip:

1.  It cost $58 per bag to go into the apple orchard and actually pick our own apples....so, we didn't actually pick apples.

2.  It ended up costing more overall to get into Apple Holler and buy food and drinks.

3.  The entire park was definitely tailored to young children, which made the whole day fun, but corny.

So here are some pictures!  :)

Autumn Mentality

I am so excited for the fall season!

Here are a few reasons I am pumped up:

3.  Thanksgiving happens during the fall season.

4.  My birthday is in just a few weeks.

5.  I enjoy crunching leaves under my feet.

6.  Fall weather has a distinct smell that I absolutely adore.

7.  It's time for sweatshirts, scarves, long pants, and jackets.

8.  I thoroughly enjoy the smell of fall-flavored candles.

9.  Starbucks' Caramel Apple Spice.

10.  I get to snuggle up in warm blankets.

I have high hopes for this fall season.  I'm ready to start embracing the change of weather and enjoy every moment.  I hope you are also able to cherish this wonderful season.
