Sending happy thoughts your way! I hope the holiday weekend has been kind to you - you deserve it, because you have been very kind to me. We have been in the mountains with temperatures dipping into the 40's at night and only reaching the 60's by day.
Just so you know, this makes me feel like a kid again. Also, September is the month to watch shooting stars. Picture us all bundled up in the chair swing on the bank of the New River watching shooting stars.
This time of year is a bit sad for me - the finality of another summer with our boys. They are growing up before my eyes. That's life I suppose.
Good-bye sweet summer. I will miss you, but I am ready for boots, Friday night football, flannel pj's, nights by the fire, pots of chili, freshly baked cookies, and lots of snuggling. Summer, please do stop by next year and bring plenty of pretty flowers.
I really liked this post. There is nothing like a little Martha to get your day started off right! And your talk of fall has me looking forward to the season!
ReplyDeleteYour list of things you will be doing in the fall sounds wonderful.
ReplyDeleteWe are all alike!
Happy Labor Day!

ReplyDeleteHappy Labor Day to you too Rene! I hope that you are enjoying everything. It sounds wonderful where you are!
ReplyDeleteI am so looking forward to everything you mentioned, especially the fires and snuggling!!! :)
Oh yeah! I'm with you on welcoming Fall! I love my boots and chili too! Football...not so much! Well except for it keeps my husband occupied;-)
ReplyDeleteHave a great Labor Day!
Happy Labor Day to YOU!! Just think now the crisp air comes and the fall colors and all the sights and smells. I did several post the last 2 weeks on Fall inspiration if you want to perk up a little come on over. I have a whole list of items I bring in for Fall, since I am a Spring gal Fall colors are a bit hard for me,making the list really helped me with the decorating for Fall process. Happy Long weekend,Kathysue

I'm ready for Fall, too. Living in Alabama, we get more than our fair share of heat. Fall is "where it's at," as far as I'm concerned! Bring it on.

ReplyDeleteHappy Labor Day to you, too! Sweet post, Rene. Fall is my favorite. I love the fireplace, flannel pjs, sweaters, boots, warm blankets and cooking and baking. It's a cozy time of the year.
ReplyDeleteLove the New River...my sister lived in New Bern for a couple of years - same river???It was gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteSo ready for Fall.
I happen to love summer and this year we just didn't have much of one in Southern California...it was quite cool through the summer months. Having said that, I have a feeling late September and October might be very warm. But I know soon I will also be looking forward to fall. I really do love the fall colors and crisp air. And,
ReplyDeleteof course things like pumpkin pie!
