So fall has officially fell and it is glorious. A little
early to be this chilly at night if you ask me, but it still does not offset
the fact that I LOVE the fall.
Growing up in Louisiana I never really felt like I got to
experience fall. We had it, but it did not come gradually like it does up here
in Fayetteville. It was like “okay today the leaves changed colors.” And then
the next day they would be gone, and the next day it was winter. Here fall
lasts for more than three days and I can just soak it all in. All of its fally
goodness.
I love the crisp bright colors of fall while everything is
changing. Crunchy leaves make a wonderful symphony of sounds as I walk to
class. The smell of bonfires and spice wafting through the air. The best.
Fayetteville in the fall is like none other. I’m not going to lie, getting to
experience a “real” fall was something that drew me to the university. Winter
is another blog post for another day…
Today I got to go to a lovely Fall themed sisterhood with
the wonderful women of AOII. We went to McGarrah Pumpkin Patch and had a GREAT
time. There were bonfires, a haunted hayride, a haunted corn maze, pumpkins
galore. It really was great to get to have silly fun and laugh with my sisters.
These girls truly have become a second family to me and it is the best feeling
to be able to just forget about school and worries of life and just have fun
together. I can’t wait until our next sisterhood!
With that, I am going to cozy up in my sweater and blanket,
light my vanilla spice candle (they’re a dollar at Walmart and they smell
FANTASTIC) and get to work on homework.
Happy fall yall!
