Fall is finally here

I know, I know, you never thought you'd hear those words come outta my mouth, right?  Well, we have had this weird transition this year, here in the bay area, from Summer to Fall.  Two days ago, it was 95 degrees, and today we have a high of 60 degrees.  I have this weird feeling that we will get back up there in those hot temps at least once more before fall officially starts.  ARGH.
Don't get me wrong, Summer is still my favorite season, but when you are in the 90's for a couple weeks straight and there is no air conditioner to speak of in your home, summer can get a bit toasty.  So, I welcome the cooler temps and the change of season.
I absolutely love October.  It's one of my favorite months of the year, it must be that it kinda starts the fun holiday season.  My family and I are big into Halloween.  I love decorating, celebrating, trick or treating, crafting, cooking, and baking for Halloween.   My kids already both have their entire Halloween costumes picked out and ready to go.  And they started planning what to be a couple of months ago.   And then who doesn't love a Thanksgiving feast, and Christmas Morning?  Ahh, I can't wait.
Anywho, wellcome fall, glad to see you finally have arrived, if only for a short while!
