finally fall


Yesterday the radio announcer said--no sarcasm, "You might want to stay inside because of today's crappy weather." This blew our minds! It was a lovely 70 degree day with an ocean breeze. Can it get any more perfect?

San Diego is not a place where all four seasons are represented. I'm ok with that if it means no snow. But fall is a bit of a bummer here. The leaves don't change colors and there are no rainbow mountains. Yes it's no Utah fall, but I'm loving our new fall weather--70 degrees and overcast, I'm not complaining.

On the first overcast day to celebrate the first sign of fall we went to a pumpkin patch. I was so excited to pick out the perfect pumpkin but it wasn't hard with the limited options we had. Total pumpkin patch FAIL! It was probably the most pathetic one I have ever been too. Our first problem was we went on Halloween day. There were literally no more pumpkins left! Our second problem was that it was the only nearby pumpkin patch so everyone and their mom had already visited. We learned our lesson--we will be the first ones to go get a Christmas Tree.

^^haha^^
Just look at that selection! You can't help but laugh. Sam and I were dying! We helped ourselves to the free apple cider and grabbed the only decent pumpkins. 

Even though there are no mountains or leaves changing colors; we get the prettiest fall sunsets and cotton candy skies. It's amazing and I don't have to suffer the freezing falls of Utah. Last night was the first time I have ever been cold in our apartment. It's a miracle! Welcome fall!
