Fall is in the air...sort of

So fall has finally arrived in Columbia, SC and what that really means is that the temperature has dropped to the 70's and 80's (but well take what we can get). I had a very relaxing weekend, filled with fun fall activities. Caught up and hung with friends Friday night, cleaned and went to the Chili Cook Off downtown and what not Saturday (the Gamecocks had a buy in football) and finished today with sand volleyball and fall fun, which included pumpkin picking, a corn maze and a hay ride! Oh, and some homework and getting my life in order tasks thrown in between.

Living in South Carolina has really made me appreciate the seasons - down here leaves don't change, you don't get to bundle up in a sweater, and kids will wear halloween costumes without snow suits bundled under them. However, we make up for it by baking fall breads, lighting fall scented candles, and enjoying the fall like weather that lasts till about noon every day. Some pictures of my life recently:
