30 Days of Thanks - Day 13!


I am participating in the 30 Days of Thanks by BoogieMum. What a great idea for making November a month of thanks instead of just a day!

I am thankful that cooler weather is almost upon us. I have to say, since it is mid-November, I am officially sick of shorts and sandals. I am ready for sweatshirts, jeans, and coats! It will not be long now. At least that is what I keep telling myself. It is going to be 85 today and even warmer tomorrow. Ick!

It was very strange for this former Iowan to take the kids to see Santa yesterday in the heat. I have to say that the kids love the warm weather. I chalk that up to the fact that is all they have ever known. They don't know what they are missing: crisp fall mornings, the trees changing colors, that distinct fall smell - kind of a mix of burning leaves and fresh air. I miss it!

I love the crisp cool fall weather too, but it's the thought of all the snow to come that has me jealous of your 85 degrees! :)

Thanks for visiting my blog!
And I'm with you on the enjoyment of temperatures cooling.
Though a summer love at heart, there is nothing quite like those cuddly sweaters and a great pair of snow boots.
