A few thoughts on a beautiful fall day

Well November is officially here. I love this time of year. The fall brings cooler weather, brisk days, the changing colors of the leaves, time changes, and my favorite....Thanksgiving! I love all the seasons of the year, but there just seems to be something about this one that just gets me every year. It has a kind of magic in the air that I love. Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday....but not because of the food. I love the whole family thing of it. I love spending the entire day at my grandparents and hanging out with my cousins and my brothers. I love playing Scrabble until we are blue in the face then switching to 42. I love everything about it. The football games on tv and the ones we play outside in the front yard. I love the parades and watching them with my aunt while we cook. I just love the day. I love that most of the time we are dressed for a blizzard, but it always ends up being in the 70s or 80s the whole day. Definately a great day. I also love going to the stock show the next day. Call me crazy, but I am in love with agriculture and everything that comes with it. I love getting up super early the next day and driving to Waco to hang out with my brothers while they get pigs ready to show. Its definately a great time of the year. It also kinda kicks off stock show season. Beginning in January there are so many stock shows to get ready for and go to. I love it! I guess I just love everything today. :) It has to be this beautiful weather. Sunny and 70 makes for some awesome weather. I can't wait to see what God has in store for me this season. Soooo exciting!!!
