Autumn in St. Louis
I love the smell of fires in the evening. To me there is nothing better than sitting outside on a cool night and enjoying a nice warm fire pit.
I love taking walks in the early morning in the fresh, cool, crisp air. The colors of the changing leaves and tress are simply amazing. All the reds, oranges, browns and yellows of the leaves are just beautiful.
Autumn also means Halloween fun time. Our family family tradition of going to the pumpkin patch and picking out that perfect pumpkin. Me attempting to carve it but we all know it just isn't going to work out. Of course Trick or Treating with family and friends and getting as much candy as possible.
Autumn and Halloween also means I am much busier with work. I work for HauntWorld/Halloween Productions in St. Louis. They own 3 of the biggest and best Haunted House in Missouri as well as have a online Haunt directory and print a HauntWorld Magazine. I love my job and what I do. I am blessed to work for one of my dearest friends and be lucky enough to work from home.

Thanks to all that voted!!!
Yup, we love the same things about fall. Plus all my best outfits are meant for this time of year.
ReplyDeleteAs for the survey, I think 12% of people who say they truly miss their kids are lying and/or have a maid.
Oh I agree! I love my warmer outfits too!

Thanks for stopping by Marvelous Monday - and now following you back. I love the fall - I live in Minnesota and the colors can get so pretty! I love the crisp air and sleeping with the windows open
ReplyDeleteI agree. I love having the windows open and feeling the cool breeze.
DeleteFall/Autumn is my favorite time of the year too. I love just about everything about it, but mostly the cooler weather and the changing colors of the leaves. There's just something about Fall that makes me smile & feel all warm & tingly inside :)
ReplyDeleteI know. I feel the same way. Letting that cool air in and snuggling up with a warm blanket and warm delicious food that has been cooking in the crockpot all day.
DeleteHey! Thanks for stopping by my fb & liking! I came over to follow back by GFC. Have a wonderful week :)
ReplyDeleteI love the rich colors associated with fall...the reds and golds. We were blessed to spend fall in St. Louis a couple of years ago and it solidified in my mind why I love the season so much. Thanks for stopping by Posed Perfection today and leaving me a sweet comment about Lee's Caramel Frosting. I am your newest follower. I hope you'll visit again and maybe even follow me back. Have a blessed week!

I love that it finally starts to cool down and I love all the decorating (Halloween & Thanksgiving), holidays with family, and shopping for Christmas!
ReplyDeleteOddly enough (working for a haunted House/Halloween Prod. Co.) I do not have very many Halloween decorations. I do love decorating for fall!!
DeleteI wish we got more of an Autumn season in Florida! It pretty much goes straight from super hot to cold, no in between. I love the weather here but it'd be nice to have a variety in our seasons. :)
