thinks Fall should stay around a litlte bit longer

You know that it is Fall in Utah when the mountains look like

ThIs

And you have "toys" out like this one pictures below

Yes . . . in case you are wondering that is a Barbie, but not just any Barbie. This is. . . .

"Halloween Hip" Barbie

She only comes out in the fall. My dad bought her for me a few years ago. . . he thought the kids at school would like her. They did, and so did Emma who I was babysitting this afternoon. She comes in handy often.
(Confession: I kind of like her denim skirt and tall black boots)




And you can use words to describe your house like:

Warm, inviting, harvest, orange, brown, pumpkiny (I made that one up) etc. . . .

(that is my new scentsy smell in the burner. . . . I am pretty sure I don't ever need to leave the kitchen again if it can always smell like cranberry spice)

The famous "Halloween Tree" is finally out.

Pumpkin Spice Hershey Kisses and other non-essential treats are in the pumpkin dish.
Yes, it is definitely fall.

You can also be sure that it is fall when my hair color changes from the sun-bleached somewhat brown color back to its darker self. . . . .

Happy Fall. . . .
Lets just hope it stays around a little bit longer.
