Reasons Why I LOVE Fall

1. The food:  pumpkin spice lattes, pumpkin pancakes, pumpkin chocolate chip squares
2. Walks in the cool, crisp outdoors with crunchy leaves underfoot and lingering fog.

 at the zoo.  Silas seeing a moose up close:

3. Fun fall activities like the Fort Langley Cranberry festival,  the pumpkin patch (with Silas this year it will be even MORE fun) and the pitt meadows corn maze:

 Can't believe this is how little Silas was last year! Can't wait to take him back to the patch this year:

4. Decorating the house with things like this:

 and this:

 and this current table decor (although it is always changing):

 candle stands: from our fall wedding 6 years ago, branch pumpkin: from superstore, pine cones: Silas picked them up outside, cloth: extra from bridesmaid dresses, potpourri: from ikea for our wedding!

5. Rainy days to work on home renovations:

Kitchen backsplash (more photos to follow)

handmade quilt made from Ghanian fabrics: (still not finished, but getting there!):

Office painting and renos (not done yet, but here's a sneak peak): before

6. And this fall, can't wait until our 6th wedding anniversary.  Jason and I get to take a weekend and go to Victoria on Vancouver Island while the grandparents look after Silas.  Woohoo!

Loving the fall.
