Tis the Season...

As the night air cools and the hues of autumn light up the world in a blaze of color...



I find myself turning inward and pondering on the hallmarks of the season....



the quaint roadside stands with even quainter names that pop up around town...



the folksy yard decorations that bring a smile to my face....



and the hearty, cream filled soups that warm our bodies and bring a sense of nostalgia for simpler days.


Days when calories didn't matter and a treat in each hand meant it was a great day....


days when you didn't care that your dad was a vampire and not near as dazzling as the Cullens...


 nor as fearsome as the neighborhood pig,  Count Porkula....
But mostly all I really wanted to say is...
Happy Fall Y'all!!! 
Enjoy the season!

We always loved driving by that pig in the yard and seeing how they had decorated it for the next holiday. It's nice to see a photo of it again.

Thanks for sharing fall with me! We don't get that here.

Ellie and Emma are adorable and that man in the vampire costume is awesome ;)

Fall is my favorite season! Truman loves that pig too. We see it every day on our way to school.

The Vampire Dad is too funny! Here in the south we don't have the beautiful fall colors that you have, but we do hear y'all!!
