Falling for… FALL

Warning: This post will not be about anything profound or important.. I just hate that the blog has not been updated in FOREVER. (And I secretly cringe every time I see that darn dental picture below. Lets get rid of it shall we?!)

I used to consider myself a Summer girl. Through and through. I LOVE Summer. I love to swim, NOT sunbathe. I do not like laying out. It bores the goodness right out of me. I love warm Summer nights. I love going on walks… sometimes 2-3 times a day! I love Summer clothes, food, activities, vacations, and of course the holidays. Summer reminds me of carefree, childhood days! It reminds me of Summer love. Which if you ask me, is the best time to be in love! I just LOVE Summer. Although I love Spring almost as much.. Summer has always been my Season.

BUT, this year I have fallen in love with Fall. I love the crisp air, changing leaves, the food, the HOLIDAYS, and the CLOTHES (especially the Little Lady’s clothes. I am DY-ING over her cute little tunic’s and stretch pants, paired with boots! LOVE LOVE LOVE!) I love the colors of Fall. I LOVE bundling up with Miss Emmalee and going on morning walks. I used to get anxiety from the Fall. That is when school started. And a little, well kept secret of mine is that I get anxiety when thrown into new situations. I am completely intimidated by meeting new people. I LOVE having wonderful friends and family. I LOVE being comfortable. I LOVE people. BUT, I do not like putting myself out there and having to prove who I really am. I just like people to KNOW me. Really know me. I love to spend hours talking to one person, rather than making the rounds to handfuls of people. I prefer in depth conversations full of emotions and stories, rather than skimming the surface. I used to get teased about how social I was… truth is, I just surrounded myself with social people who made it A LOT easier! Good thing I married the man I did. I didn’t think it was possible to marry a man who stayed in better contact with my friends, but he does! I think they secretly like him better anyway!

I suppose, all things in opposition right?! However, I don’t think I will ever be as much in love with Winter as I am these three Seasons. It just WILL NOT happen. I need warmth. I need the sun! Snow is good for the month of December and part of January, then I am done. I need green!
