autumn lovin’

By

 

There is just so much to love about autumn; the vibrant colors, fallen leaves, crisp air, yummy warm drinks, and bountiful harvest blessings. 

But I think my favorite thing of all is pulling out the warm sweaters, blue jeans, wooly socks…. and yes my Uggs.

This image tells the story of a typical autumn day in my life; both the beginning and the end. I walk into the studio, Ben right along side me. He heads to his cozy sheepskin bed and I slip into my wooly Uggs. And our day begins. At the end of the day, off come the Uggs and there they sit, ready and waiting for tomorrow.

Today, share a little something you just love about autumn? Maybe it’s your Uggs too, or a favorite sweater, perhaps a cup of tea,  the harvest, warm colors, pumpkins, quiet time on a cool afternoon, sunflowers, fallen acorns. Please share your autumn lovin’ with us today.

  3. i love when i have some time to drink a cup of tea a quite cool afternoon.
    Autumm is my favorite season.
    =)

  5. It is so much easier for me to love summer and spring, with their warmth, long hours of light, and promise of more warmth and new life than autumn. but I am trying to learn to love more also this season and the colours of the autumn leaves are something which I have been admiring and photographing a lot in the last few years.
    here it is a bit early for autumn leaves now, but I found these warm coloured ones nevertheless:

  13. Oh, my Uggs ~ definitely! The thing I love about Autumn also, is the smell of apples and the buzzing of bees. The olfactory banquet of drying leaves and crunchy walks. Speaking of which…..think I'll go take one!

  15. Love this photo!! And fall is my favorite time of year for many reasons but most of all for the cool weather, the beautiful colors on the trees, and warm scents. 🙂

  20. For me its the awesome Hot Chocolate, Pumpkin goodies, & being able to play in the falling leaves w/my kids that makes me love Fall so much.Can't wait to wear my favorite sweater & knitted socks made by my mother. How can we not love Fall

  21. I wait all year for Autumn and October is my most beloved month of the entire year.

    I especially love this:

    And I love watching the wind stirring the fallen leaves. Sometimes it blows so hard, it's like driving in a leaf storm. I love the change in the air, the change in the light, Canadian Thanksgiving which falls on the 10th of Oct. this year, Cranberry Fest (which is so much fun-pancake brekki, vendors, entertainment all al fresco).

    Autumn (October) is also my husbands birthday (the 19th) and our wedding anniversary (the 27th-we got married on my Grandparent's 45th and this year we're celebrating 21 HAPPY years!) Hallowe'en was my Gramps' birthday so it will always hold a special place in my heart.

    Autumn is the season that resonates with my spirit and makes me feel joyful.

  24. I love the smells of autumn! Hot cider, simmering cinnamon, pumpkin pie baking in the oven, homemade cranberry jelly… sometimes I think I could close my eyes and smell my way through the seasons. But fall is the best of them all!

  34. Fall is my absolute favorite. I am deliriously happy it is almost here (I live in Texas so it takes a bit longer down here, it's in the 90s today). Some images of my last fall:

  46. I love my blue plaid farmers coat. It's warm and cozy and always make me think of autumn.

    I just love it. I also don't go anywhere without a scarf. Autumn just equals scarves for me.
