The leaves are Falling

Fall is finally really here in North Texas. We have been loving the cooler temps and the changes of the season. Jason and I have been walking alot throughout the neightborhood recently. This weekend we went on a walk and we noticed the air was really cold and crisp, we definalty felt like fall had arrived. We noticed a lot of people were burning a fire and so it got us in the mood to have one too. We have had 2 fires this week and are so enjoying it in our home. I had forgotten how much I loved the smell of wood burning fireplace.

It's beginning to be that time of year where blankets and comfort food are the best. Warm fall cinnamon candles are always great and snuggling up on the couch is fun.

Jason and I are celebrating Thanksgiving this weekend with my parents. We are very excited about great food and fun with family. Lots of pictures to come hopefully.

I can not wait to start decorating for christmas. I keep looking at all my storage containers just anxiously awaiting to put them up. Jason keeps looking at me like I am crazy, he tells me "are you nuts its not even thanksgiving yet". Usually over thanksgiving holiday is when the christmas decorations go up. It's always been a family tradition to begin Christmas over thanksgiving weekend. Eating a huge feast that my mom has been working on for hours and then begin the decorations and watching christmas movies. I love that!! I plan on keeping that tradition. I have such great great memories of the holidays as a child and now an adult and I hope to keep them coming. :)

What are some of your favorite thanksgiving holiday traditions? What food is your favorite on thanksgiving? I would love to hear your feedback and hopefully use some of your recipes in the coming weeks.

P.S. Congrats to Aunt Lee Lee and Terry for Tying the Knot this past weekend. We love you guys and are so HAPPY for you both. Welcome to the Family Terry!!!!
