Missing Fall

I am missing Fall! somehow even though it is 88* and hot in hawaii, it feels like it should be fall and i miss it. i guess it is when i watch the Today show in the morning and they are all starting to wear their jackets and talk about crisp weather. i don't miss cold weather! but i do miss the leaves changing colors and the wonderful fall activities like apple picking, going to the pumpkin patch, playing in the leaves with my kids (which i know wouldn't happen anymore anyway!) and making warmer food. i did make pumpkin muffins, i was just ready i don't care what the temp. is and i love pumpkin!
2 years ago my sister got married in oct. and had the most beautiful "fall" themed brown and orange wedding, i was so happy to be there at that time. i know i am due for a visit home-mom- and i will get there sometime soon but i will miss fall this year.
one year my mom even sent me fall leaves in a box! (don't try that it is kind of a mess:)
a stroll down memory lane in the fall in st. louis:

My mom has sent me leaves before too. I put them on my bulletin board until they fell apart.
Those kids were cute, and they still are. I'd be willing to bet they would still play in the leaves with you.

FALL is my favorite season of the year!! I didn't grow up with it but got to experience it during college, very fun

I couldn't help but notice how hot and humid it was today. I started to wonder when the fall weather would start to kick in.

I love Fall on the mainland, more specifically Utah. Cute pics of the kids.

the fall is gorgeous and this is my first time experiencing it. I love all the clothes i get to wear, but not when I'm running to my car freezing, or walking to school.

Wow It's weird to remember kids that young that are so old now. I remember Ki being a baby, baby when you guys babysat for us. Man I need to enjoy my kids every moment.
