happy first day of fall!!

{my absolute most favorite time of year!}

of course AZ doesn't offer  gorgeous color changing leaves, but...

an arizona autumn does mean:

cooler evenings that allow for blankets and cardigans.

less sweat on a midnight beach cruise ride.

being able to drive with the windows down again.

an excuse to indulge in seasonal treats.

getting dressed up for one night as someone different and being surrounded by candy.

more reasons to plan get togethers with friends and family.

snowbirds.

counting down until 99.9 KEZ starts playing Christmas music.

{which by the way, i request the hippopotamus song in excess this season}

temple lights.

hot apple cider and frothy hot cocoa.

cute scarves and radical beanies.

any excuse to be outside.

being with the one[s] you love the most, 

and hopefully getting the chance to tell them how much you do.
