Fall is here, fall is here...it's the best time of the year!
Over at The Inspired Room, Melissa is challenging us to create a list of 20 things that inspire us this time of year.
Here are a few of the things that delight my heart in Autumn:
1. the colors of fall
2. the crisp breezes in the air
3. pumpkins
4. sitting outdoors by our chiminea smelling the burning pinion wood
5. snuggling with my kiddos under a soft throw
6. autumn baking - especially the spice and pumpkin breads
7. Thanksgiving and all that this special holiday represents - gratefulness, thankfulness and recognition of all the blessings God has bestowed upon us
8. fall decorations in my home and homes I visit
9. pumpkin spice lattes at Starbucks
10. taking my kids to pick out pumpkins at the pumpkin patch
11. sweaters and boots
12. candles
13. fall festivals
14. neighborhood garage sales
15. opening all the windows and enjoying the smells and sounds of the outdoors
16. soups, spicy chili, cornbread and pinto beans
17. corn dogs at the fair
18. hayrides
19. mums
20. high school football games (Longhorns, too!)

Hi Sassy,
I am responding to a comment you left on my blog - andevenif.blogspot.com
How exciting that you are thinking about adoption! We have two blogs set up for our last two adoptions. I didn't even know about blogging when we adopted Molly in 2003 :) Our first blogging attempt during Madelyn's adoption was pretty pathetic, but Mason's was a little better. Here are the links to both:

Please keep in touch and let me know if I can answer any questions for you.

What???? You're thinking about adopting??? You've come to the right place, talking to my sister. After three adopted cuties, she's a pro. :-)
As for fall, fall in Tulsa is spectacular!
Some of my fall faves, too.
Isn't this the best time of year?
I love the pics of your kids. They are so precious!!! You take great pictures!!! I also noticed the pumpkin spices latte...that is one of my favorite things too!!!
Great list. Happy Fall!
