School supplies, Autumn, and Pumpkins

I love autumn! It is a marvelous season, probably my favorite over all the others. I say that and then my mind starts wandering to all the other seasons, and I could pick a million things I love about those seasons...But gosh, autumn is simply terrific. It's the beginning of school, which means "back to school shopping" for us youngins. I love buying all the school supplies...Pencils, glue sticks, markers, crayons...And best of all: notebooks! When I think of autumn I think of the amish, apple cider, and reading a fascinating book in front of a open window, with a slight draft coming in...I also think of the Grabill fair, apple dumplings, and leaf houses....Ahh the essence of autumn is simply lovely. Gee I'm excited about decorating my front porch with my new pumpkins!

September tales

Well tonight sets off the second bonfire party of September! My sister's and I invited a bunch of random people to our lovely fall fest, which are always extremely fun! As we were talking about earlier this day, you find out what people are really like at a bonfire...The real you comes out. Some sit in silence, some can't stand the silence, it's terrific! Well I must be off!
