We've really taken to the spirit of the season by doing some of my favorite fall things, including...
COLLEGE FOOTBALL
In September, we got to go to our first longhorn football game since a couple of seasons ago - SO fun! I felt silly because I almost cried I was so happy to be back and listen to the beautiful sound of the longhorn band. Thanks to the Greens for the awesome opportunity to go to a game!!
HOMECOMING ANNIVERSARY
We have made it a tradition to celebrate our "original" anniversary (high school homecoming!!!) since we did it for so many years before we got married. We enjoy being creative and thinking of gifts or things to do that correlate with the number of years we are celebrating. This year we celebrated eight years! After a couple of weeks of thinking and me suggesting that I get Justin an octopus as a gift, we decided it would be fun to go eat eight-legged creatures. So on September 18th, we went to Joe's Crab Shack. We stuffed ourselves and had a fantastic time!
BASEBALL
With fall comes baseball (which I REALLY love) and we've been to a couple games this season, including one of the ALDS games against Tampa Bay. As I am sitting here, I am watching the Rangers, tied going into extra innings and hoping for a win so that they can (possibly) go to the World Series. I've canceled my America's Next Top Model and CSI recordings for this game, so hopefully it works out!
Okay, I think I have to wait on the boots and sweaters that I get excited about in the fall. It's still in the eighties. BUT I think this weekend I will be making pumpkin cookies or possibly some apple pie!
What are your favorite fall things??
