So this new job obviously has me very busy, if you can't tell from the almost 2 week time span since my last post. While I feel like I have tons to update everyone on, I feel my time will be best spent by offering my thoughts on why I love the fall and all the simple pleasures I get during this time. You do you know what a simple pleasure is, don't you? It's those things in life that make you smile, that are small and maybe don't cost anything, but have the power to really pick you up and make you feel all warm and happy inside. I have a whole list of these things, but I thought for today I would make it specific to my favorite season.
Then later, when I have more time I will tell everyone all about my amazing weekend with my best high school friends in Dallas and continue to keep you posted on my new job. In the meantime though, I hope you will enjoy this and maybe find a few things that you love too about the fall.

7. Grey's Anatomy...duh!
8. College football season.
9. Tailgaiting.

I love fall candles too... my current fave (for 2 yrs now) is Yankee Candle's "Frosted Pumpkin". Yum! And, Grey's starts in just over a week. YEA!!
I love the fall too; it means Christmas is not too far behind!
Everyone keeps asking me how you are doing; patients included.
Looks like you had a fun weekend in Dallas-cute picture...but it looks like you and a couple of the other girls are missing something ; )
