Since I live in AZ, I love the fall because it Finally starts to cool off here! My favorite thing about this fall will be welcoming our third child into our family (I think we have close due dates - mine is 11/21)! We are so excited!!!
Oh my gosh, I think some of my new favorite things are in this post. They all look so fun! This time of the year is my favorite - from shopping for new school clothes, decorating the house in black & orange to the closeness I feel to the family during Christmas time!
my little boy "caught" a dragon fly and was so pleased with himself, he had to show me... all I saw was a smashed gooey thing with wings...?
Had to snap that proud expression on his face :)
I love fall decor. I probably put it out WAY too early, but I love it!
I love how the shadows get longer in the fall. And the cooler weather-in Tucson we get down to the 90's and 80's!
I don't want to forget any of the memories from my darling daughter's first birthday. That's also what I love about the fall, now, celebrating when she came home with us.
My favorite thing about Fall is that my favorite flower, the sunflower is everywhere! It grows wild here where I live and I love just driving around and seeing it in random places. I also love the crisp air and cruncy leaves. Fall is my favorite season!
A recent moment I captured was our trip to the Farmer's Market. It's something so simple yet I want to remember it for years to come. It reminds me of when I was a little kid and my great aunt & I would get up early to go on Saturday mornings.
Favorite thing about fall - watching the leaves turn pretty colors!
Happy Friday!
My favorite thing about fall is going to the apple orchard/pumpkin patch with the kids. The hunt for the perfect pumpkins is always the highlight!
I captured in a photo my youngest son playing with his blocks and it perfectly shows his beautiful long eyelashes and cute little hands, I love it!!
My favorite part about Fall, is the cooler temps and the beautiful leaves, pumpkins and my boys playing in the leaves oh, and picking up pecans at my parents house!!
Have a safe trip!
(hoping I'm not posting a million of the same comment)....
my little boy "caught" a dragonfly and was so proud of himself he had to show me. All i saw was a gooey smashed thing with wings..?
I had to snap that proud expression on his face.
Its so hard to catch good moments in our house, we are always running around trying to get things done, we sometimes forget how important it is to relax and spend time together. I cherish my weekends with my family because that is the only time we really have to be together without any chaos. My two little girls fight like its going out of style, so imagine my surprise when they both woke up one morning very happy and playful and were playing in their room together, laughing and having a great time, that moment I will never forget, because it is very rare!
I love the crisp weather!
My favorite things about fall are cold weather, warm coffee and all the great decorating. Thanks for the giveaway.
Such a sweet memory ♥♡♥
It's the time of year to get outside and enjoy the beautiful colors, smells and weather, Also it's a great time to start plannig all your holiday festivities.
Also, fall is when i buckle down and focus on all my scrapbooking projects.
Holly Holland
so many great things about fall, but my favorite is apple picking w/ my nieces and nephews! hours of fun, great healthy food and awesome photo ops!
My favorite thing about the Fall season is the memories I have and will continue to make of going to pumpkin patches and apple orchards with friends and family.
My absolute favorite thing about fall is my pumpkin spice bars with homemade cream cheese icing :)
Thanks!
All of those goodies look incredible, especially the turquoise necklace ~ it's to die for <3 xoox
My hubby sleeping in bed with our daughter - after he read her a goodnight story :) Priceless!!! xoxo
Danielle :)
LOVE these yummy kits and jewelry!! Very inspiring. Most recent moment I caught on film was when I snuck into my sons' room and found my little one sitting on his big brother's lap (granted... there is only a 3 year spread and they are almost the same size) and he was reading a chapter out of Diary of a Wimpy Kid. They were both laughing hysterical. LOVED it!!
Fall is my favorite season! I always dreamed that I would get married in the fall, and guess what?!? I am :) Im engaged !! and getting married next OCT!!
Fall is about apple picking, apple pie eating, cider and doughnuts, crispy leaves and gorgeous colors in MIchigan!
Fall is my absolutest, most favoritist season of all. The cool weather just invigorates me and makes me want to be outside 24-7 and eat lots of crunchy apples and eat everything with pumpkin in it.
Love the crisp air in the early morning
Nicky from Canada
That art journal kit is so cute! Please pick me! I just captured our second anniversary just the scrabble board. a simple picture but I'll always remember how he "let" me beat him because it was our anniversary.
I captured my three boys cuddling together on the couch. Soon enough they will be too "old" to do that anymore. It's sweet.
I love so much the colors of the trees and the leaves of different colors on the ground ! Nice giveaway and wonderful kit ! Will go lookking:-)
This week I was preparing for my family's annual Autumn Feast and I decided to stop everything and take some time to journal about its importance to me. I'm so glad I did because I ended up misplacing my camera the night of the feast and would have felt at complete loss without my journal pages... They're on my blog if you want a peek. What a fun giveaway! Pick me!
xx,
Autumn Clark
I love picking apples and making applesauce as a family. Nothing smells better than a kitchen full of apples with fresh applesauce brewing. It is true home and family time!
(absolutely love that necklace!)
Hmmm, favorite thing about Fall...anything pumpkin!!! I love decorating with pumpkins, eating pumpkin pie and pumpkin spice muffins, going to the pumpkin patch with the kids...it's all part of my most FAVORITE season! :)

A recent moment I captured and never want to forget was a beautiful photo of my Dog, Duke, who was diagnosed that day with terminal lymphoma. He still had the healthy looking coat, face and body. At this point, he's lost weight, his face has started to sink in a bit and he's lost some of that gorgeous shine that Golden Retrievers are known for...that picture will be the last one of him we'll ever have "pre-cancer"...and it's beautiful.
I love fall....just because I was given a pumpkin on my first date...since then fall has been my favorite...
Wow, what great giveaways! Thanks.
I love playing in the autumn leaves, the smell on crisp mornings and the cooler cosy night...I just love this time of year.
Watching my four boys enjoying the swing set hubby finished building for them yesterday. Awesome smiles. Awesome tricks. Awesome boys!
favorite thing about fall.. my house always feels more like a home.
Apple orchards,hayrides,anything with pumpkin in it, gorgeous blue skies, kids with rosy cheeks from the crisp outdoor air, bonfires, and eating fallish foods like soups, stews, etc. Thanks for the chance to win!
my favorite thing about the fall season is sweaters and pumpkins!
I recently caught a photo of my sis-in-law being a wonderful mother to her son, I just hope that I'm as awesome as she is one of these days! Thanks for the chance to win such awesome goodies!
the leaves changing and crisp fall air!
I love everything from the beautiful leaves, hot carmel apple cider from Starbucks to Frisch's pumpkin pie, the pumpkins lining my front porch along with my husband and I celebrating fall birthdays!
I recently captured a really awesome surprised mom face. The sibs and I threw them a surprise dinner party for their 50th wedding anniversary. I knew mom wouldn't fail us with some fantastic expressions to capture on camera. Priceless. Thanks for the giveaway chance!! ♥
I love fresh autumn mornings, so crisp and pure
Holy good giveaway! My favorite thing about Fall is the colors. My fav colors are orange, green, and brown. I love decorating the house to reflect the season in these colors.
What I love about fall is the time to spend inside doing the stuff you've been thinking about starting all summer.
I bought a can of paint to paint the ikea toy box (I bought last year) in may and this week I finally startet, today I've put on the top coat and I'm so happy it's finally done. Thanks to the rainy fall weather we have here I don't feel bed about spending indoors hours.
Great picture. My favorite part of fall is the weather getting cooler, I live in Texas and it's a great when the temperature changes in fall.
Is there anything better then jumping in a pile of leaves? Oh the giggles my daughter makes as she's doing that...
The thing I love the most about fall is that winter is soon to follow. I absolutely love winter. One thing about fall that I love is the sound of leaves crunching beneath my feet. Thanks for the chance to win!!!
My fave part of fall, is when it's cooler outside, and you have the windows shut, baking something like banana bread, or choc chip cookies, and you can smell that smell inside your house all day. The leaves changing colors, and getting to wear jeans with a cute short sleeve top, or skirts and leggins, my favorite way to dress.
What don't I love about Fall??? It is my very favorite season. I love everything about it!
I love Halloween and decorating for it! Thanks!
I will never forget when my 4 year old daughter came up to me the other day and gave me the biggest bear hug ever. It knocked me over. She looks at me and puts her chubby little hands on my face and says, "Mommy. You are the bestest mommy I ever had." It melted my heart. I thought to myself... I'm the ONLY mommy you've ever had. But still. LOVE. HER. <3
Have a safe trip lizzy!!! And Collin- BEHAVE! :)
Last week my children were surrounded in the kitchen. My 22 y.o. son just arrived back from Afghanistan, from serving our country. He stood in front of the counter eating his breakfast standing up as usual. My 7 y.o. twin daughters were playing and reading in the kitchen. They each were preoccupied and I watched them in silence. Right then I had this overwhelming feeling inside of gratitude and I felt truly lucky to have my children. I know that moment will last a life time. GOD has blessed me abundance. My children turned to look at me and asked what was wrong. I could not explain, but all I can say I am so thankful to be a mother. Because I could never see myself without my children. As I write this, I am filled with joy and there is no where else I would rather be then in the kitchen with my children:)

I recently captured my husband's face (via hidden video camera) as I told him we were expecting our third child. Mind you our other two kiddos are both under the age of two. His look was a mixture of astonishment, panic and happiness along with a weary resignation to soon being outnumbered by our kids and drowning in diapers (again).
My son losing his first tooth!
I so LOVE Stella & Dot; I get weak in the knees when I see their stuff. Getting in my first wearing of my beloved Uggs. Oh boy do I miss them during the long hot summers here in CA.
My son losing his first tooth!
RECENT CAPTURE!
I love the kids and seeing what they are for Halloween. Now that I'm a grandma, I can't wait to see my grandson in his garden gnome costume with my daughter dressed as a flower.
FALL FAVORITE!
We've been teaching my grandson how to be soft with the dog and not to hit him. I caputed him petting Hurley very softly and giving him kisses on the nose, It was priceless.
I captured my 6 1/2 month son playing in his activty saucer such a happy boy.
The perfect catch...great shot of a hs kiddo!
Well I am trying really hard to find something that I love about Fall here in AZ. This is my third Fall season here and it seems to just get hotter and hotter. I guess I will have to say the fact that I can still wear t-shirts and capris is kind of fun!!! Fabulous giveaway Liz, Miss ya!
my aunt makes this amazing red hot cider. it just screams autumn to me and i look forward to it every year!
xo jenna
I can't pick just one favorite thing about fall, so here it goes...
Pumpkin spice lattes, sweaters, soups, using my fireplace (yes, I still use it even though I live in San Diego), family get-togethers, pumpkin patch pictures, decorating my house with fall colors, wearing boots...
Wow...great giveaway! My favorite fall memory is my family's annual trip to Apple Hill, CA. I've been going since I was a child and now I take my children. We drive miles and miles through gorgeous scenery looking at all the orchards, stopping at our favorite farms to pick apples, eat handmade fudge and sample PIE!! It is the highlight of the season!
Scarves. Stepping on crunchy leaves. Yams with lots of marshmallows at Thanksgiving. Fall is fantastic.
One of my favorite things about the fall season is waiting for the leaves to change in the forest at the local mountain - the hikes become infinitely more beautiful with some gold, orange and red in the trees. =)
To me fall is the beginning. Both of my little ones were born in the fall :)
What beautiful things!
My favorite things about fall are cardigans and bonfires.
My husband recently bought my 21 month old some Elmo panties and she was so excited that she had to put them on (over her diaper, of course).. but she didn't want just one pair on, she needed three pair on! She wore them the rest of the night. When I came home the next day, she had four pair on over some bright teal leggins.. I got some great pics, but I wish I would have thrown her red cape on b/c she was sportin' the Nacho Libre look!! lol
1. Falling leaves
2. Cozy nights on the sofa with a blanket, hot drinks, candlelight and a good movie.
3. All the colors in nature
What isn't there to love about fall!! Apple and pumpkin picking is definitely my favorite! And corn mazes!
The thing I love most about Fall are all the family birthdays we have this time of year! Lots of cake & ice cream :)
I love when it gets cool enough to turn off the A/C and open all the windows. Unfortunately it was 95 degrees today in Virginia.
Fall is just beautiful!
Love your blog and love your product! you are so amazing.
Last night I had to pull out my camera to capture my two year old and my husband. My husband was laying on his stomach on the bed and my son was sitting on his back watching Wonder Pets! So cute!! One of my favorite things about autumn is the extra time my son and I get to spend with my hubby!
I don't like fall, summer is my favorite season mainly because my kids are home and we are free of homework!!!
Recently I captured a picture of my sister trying on Homecoming dresses. I can't believe how much she has grown. =)
colored leaves and pumpkins!
I love love love autumn. Such a time of transition too. The sweater weather (I think I was born in a sweater.) gives me more time indoors to play with paper and sip something warm and yummy. So many holidays all packed together too. Much to prepare for. And baby number two. Inspiration for creativity everywhere. Ahh, fall. :)
Apple Cider Mulling spices and the leaves turning beautiful colors!! Happy Fall!
ooh- what a lovely giveaway. favorite thing about fall is that i get to wear scarves and boots!
My favorite thing about fall is seeing all the leaves change color! It's gorgeous :)
Just came back from a fall walk with the leaves shuffling around our feet...the one redeeming quality of the season that rips summer away.
Loving the crisp air and the changing colors. And of course, fall giveaways.
I love having to break out the sweaters! :) Not a big fan of summer...
Thanks for the chance to win!
my favorite thing about fall is the changing leaves. we have a gorgeous japanese maple in our front yard and it is perfect for fall photos!
A favorite recent photo was of my daughter's potty chair outside in the grass (she likes it to be where she is for easy access and hey, whatever gets her out of diapers works for me).
Favorite part of fall- I can almost live 24/7 in fuzzy pj's and the candy selections rock this time of year (even the bank has candy corn!!!)
wearing sweaters and boots! :)
Pumpkin flavored muffins, bagels, cream cheese, and coffee. Sweaters, long sleeved t-shirts, and sweatshirts. The beginning of school, the start of LSU football season, not sweating while drinking my coffee. Drives on the Blue Ridge Parkway, maple trees, and piles of leaves. Hiking, running in the afternoons instead of when the sun goes down, and the crisp cool mornings. The great harvest moon yellow and low in the sky. But above all, falling back and gaining an hour of sleep.
Viva Las Vegas! Favorite capture this week - my tiny little girl doing a spike in volleyball! And it went over = )
I love the smell of the leaves, picking apples and baking apple pies, going to the pumpkin patch and carving the pumpkins.Fall is my favorite time of year!!
Happy Fall Y'all
Thanks..Shannon

Love this fabulous kit!! Favorite part of fall is Halloween:)
I love the changing colors of the leaves, fresh apple cider, cooler weather and........ ITS mallomar season!! You can only get them starting in the fall....i guess so they don't melt :)
Can't wait for Halloween and pumpkin pie!
love, love, love.
My favorite thing about fall is sunny, cool days where I can play out side with my son and husband. Fall makes me even more grateful to live in such a beautiful world.
I too want to move to Utah! Though I should have guessed two awesome people--you and Nie would be friends! (Love that song of Mindy's as well!)
Hmmmm....a moment I recently captured? I guess it would have to be one of DH walking with our little nephew. Since we live 8 hours away--we don't see this little one that often----yet, since birth, he has displayed this love and connection to my DH. WHen they came to visit this summer--he just couldn't get enough of his uncle--laughing and playing and just gazing up at my DH the entire visit! THis one picture shows my husband walking and our nephew following his movements exactly. Watching DH interact with our nephew--I always glimpse the wonderful, patient, loving father he would have been--if we had been able to bear children. Ah...but sometimes life has other plans for you.... Anyway--I cherish the times we spend with our nephew and my heart swells to watch the special relationship between my DH and my nephew.
Recently I captured my little guy's first smile. I love these precious first few months of life. Good luck with your beautiful little one on the way.
oh, I love teaching myself songs on the piano:) Mmm...recent memory would be right before my sister left for college. Her and my other sister and some friends and I all had a fun photo shoot that turned out really cute.
the cool weather and sweaters! ♥
Have a fabulous weekend!

My favorite thing about fall is that first sunny cold, crisp day with the leaves bathed in color. It's the promise of family holidays when everyone comes home to stay a while.
Something I captured recently was when my almost 2-year-old son was attempting to attack our cat and ended up getting stuck behind the couch. Once I giggled, he found it hilarious as well that he managed to jam himself in a 3 inch area. I'm so glad he was able to stay put until I got the camera, snagged a shot, then dragged him out. :)
What's not to love? The beautiful colors, the excitement of change, college football, honestly I love it all.
My 3 year old and 6 year old are really into us taking pictures with mommy. It melts my heart that they want to be in the pics with me!

pumpkin marshmellow candies!

My favorite thing about fall is that it is a cozy season. We are indoors more--more cozy cuddling and more cozy fires. The temperatures drop--more cozy sweaters and tights! It's probably my favorite time of year.
Pumpkin candles, candy corn, apple pie with ice cream, Halloween!
I absolutely love Texas in the Fall. The weather is just perfect. No humidity, warm enough to still be outside and cool enough to enjoy it. It's the best.
Pumpkin spice latte's from Starbucks!! and watching my children play in piles of fallen leaves :)
oooh! My favorite thing about Fall is jeans and sweaters. they make me sooooo happy! <3
I love having a September 23rd birthday because I LOVE fall! I love the cooler weather, the apples, leaves, mums, pumpkins, football, and pumpkin spice lattes. I also love that fall leads up to the holiday season where I get to spend time and make memories with my wonderful family :)
I love capturing everyday moments with my furbaby (since I don't have kids... yet!), and fall is my favorite season. Love the crisp, cool weather!
Hi Liz! I love looking at your blog. It puts me in such a crafty mood! Anyways, I just captured my 2month old when she was laughing for the first time! She is the sweetest! Congrats on having another little girl! I have 3 boys and just had my little girl and it is so fun! This is Jen Peterson by the way:-)
I love sweaters while still wearing my flip flops, the colors on the mountains, football games, and watching my kids ride their bikes outside for hours!
My mom taking care of us while I recovered from sinus and tonsil surgery recently. She used her week of vacation sleeping in my 4 year old's bunk bed with a smile on her face happy to help us out, we appreciate it so much and I don't want to forget it! Thanks for the giveaway!
cooler weather....i live in louisiana and its really hot right now, i would love some lower 80's
Favorite thing about the Fall season is (HOPEFULLY!!) some cooler weather coming our way.
:) Rebecca Keppel
I love taking pics of the changing leaves and I love that smell in the air
I love the photo I capture of my two boys playing in the dirt...it completely describes my dirt loving boys!
just tonight i caught my boyfriends eye from across the room at a party. i don't want to forget that feeling. just the smile and i love you look!
I have so many favortie things about Fall... but my absolute favorite would be seeing the leaves and colors change. It means my birthday is coming soon and then its holiday season, and what's better than that?
beautiful moment? Just watching my beautiful baby boy sit for 15 minutes just flipping the pages of a book. A small simple thing but so beautiful. Thanks for the giveaway chance!!! love your blog!!!!
My sister and her boyfriend are moving to New York from California tomorrow. I will not forget our last dinner together with the whole family. I wish them luck and love.
Cool air... leaf litter...and our wedding on September 20
I might spruce things up cos where I live, it's spring ;)
All the blossom trees are in full bloom at the moment,they're priceless beauty :) considering my city was struck with a 7.2 earthquake 21 days ago, they brighten up my day! two days after the quake my nan,cousin and I stopped and took some memorable photos under a blossom tree; they're all scrapped and looking fabulous now!

I just love watching the leaves change colour. Thanks for the chance to enter your giveaway x
We were lying in bed one morning and my husband and I hear our son get up from him bed and walk into our room, blanket in tow. My husband plops him in between us, hoping he would go back to sleep. Instead he just looked back and forth and my husband and I. Then all off a sudden with his little index finger, he pushes my nose and says, "beep".
Thanks for the giveaway!!!
I love the color of fall. I loev maple leave picking wih my kids every fall. I love the gentle cool air. I love it is sometime to cold to go out and I can stay in more to scrap.
Recently captured the 4th time that day my 18month old boy spilled the Fruity Pebbles on the kitchen floor. And then danced in it.
baby #2 is now almost 5 months old...I was searching for a photo on my hubby's phone when i came across a pic that he took of my daughter & I SECONDS after her birth...I never knew he took it...so amazing xx please pic me :)
I love apples, scarfs and all the yellow and red leaves.
Taking fun photos of the kids messing about in the fallen leaves.
Banana bread, anything pumpkin, changing of the leaves, cooler temps...I love fall!!
remembering the colors of autumn that drift onto watercolor paper... would love your giveaways.
Something I want to capture forever happened just this week. As my 3 yr old was getting settled into bed and ready for story time, I wanted to quiz my little one so I asked "Nathan, who is our creator?" His answer was "Red, Brian says Red Sox". He said it with such a straight face so sincere and serious, it was just one of those pure cute moments that makes your heart full and your face smile. And we live in Arizona, so I LOVE fall because after sweltering super summer temperatures, the cool air is fresh to breath and crisp on the skin, it embodies a NEW season that we really welcome here!
What sweet giveaways! Thank you all for this!
My recently captured moment is the photo of my husband on the floor with our newest grandson's pacifier in his mouth, with that grandson laying next to him with that look of "hey! that's mine, isn't it???" on his face. I love watching my guy interact with our grandchildren - his joy is almost tangible!
One of my fav things about fall is hearing the marching band at the high school down the road, performing/practicing at night. The cool night air carries the sound to our open windows ... love it!
I don't want to forget the great anniversary dinner my hubs and I made for the daughter and s-i-l last night. After dinner and dessert, we played a mean game of Scrabble. It was FUN.
My too cute for words son was born on October 2nd. He is my favorite thing in the world (fall). I also love driving up the canyon to see the beatiful fall colors. Utah is gorgeous in the fall, well, always.
Autumn is my favorite season because the colors of nature (although I live in town) but because it is the beginning of a new cycle in our lives. And I still believe, despite everything, the best is ahead!
Fave recent shot was a sailboat on the lake. We got right beside it and it was beautiful. I love watching sailboats, they are so peaceful. Fave thing about fall absolutely the colors of the changing leaves. Nothing like a drive to the mountains to see the foliage. All the sweet goodies are a close second.
My two year old dumping every board game that I own in the living room and mixing them altogether. Yes, that's Dora Concentration, Dora Candyland, Hannah Montana Monopology, Disney Yahtzee . . . Yes, where was mom, three feet away scrapping. Never heard or saw any of it until I started hearing her sing, "Clean up time, Clean up time . . ."
Hi Lizzy! Captured a "be spontaneous" moment with the kids. My almost 4 year old daughter, Elsie is completely taken with Olivia these days. While reading an Olivia book for the 100th night in a row she asked, "Mommy I want to try a cream cheese, pickle and raisin sandwich like Olivia!" I said, "Why not!" We made one the next day for lunch and they ate it! you can see the post on www.wirefamily.blogspot.com I want them to remember that their perfectionist, planned out mommy is a little spontanenous sometimes.

P.S. I made a replica of the mini book you taught as a gift for my mother for her birthday. It was a huge hit!!!! (and I made it in 90 mins!!! Thank you!
I love the way the trees put on their new "clothes" even if they know it is only for a short time before they all will look the same. I love the smell of cinnamon and baking.
i captured the 7 year old neighbor boy teaching my 5 year old daughter how to throw a football. it was A.DOR.ABLE!!!
Jeans, sweaters and apple cider. I love fall!!!
love all of the inspiration you give
My favorite thing about fall ... the return of my chili! I'm making a batch today, and I can't wait for a hot, spicy bowl with cheddar and sour cream!
LOVE this!! Hope I win!!! You're a lucky girl, I would love it if y husband could play the piano!
last week I had a chatting walk around our little town with my four veryvery best friends. it was raining pretty hard and we had two umbrellas only, so we had to share them. though i was cold and wet all over, I felt so happy and I was so proud I have those indescribably marvellous girls in my life!
and when we went to a coffee shop after that to eat the best cheesecake ever, I realized that moments like this are what the fall is invented for! :)
greetings from this far and rainy town :)
Pumpkins, autumn colors, crisp air, and my NFL, NHL, MLB, and NBA teams can be found all on the same day in October (If you're a fan of the Colorado teams, anyway!)!
Wow, thanks for the chance to win such fun things! Yesterday I took a picture of my 3-year old helping my 7-month old to stand... it seems like everyday lately there are moments to remember :)
My favorite thing about this fall season in particular is getting ready for our very first little baby girl to arrive! I have been busy sewing some crib bedding and getting everything ready in her room. There has also been a battle to decide on the name going on for months...it's all so exciting!
Oh, and I love the fall weather and maple trees with all of the leaves a different shade or orange and red. :)
fab giveaway! the last great image i captured was last night when Hairspray premiered onstage in AL. im in the production and we played to a full house. it was awesome!
Would love this!
Karen
most fave about Fall: B-O-O-T-S! Haha, can you hear Laurie Berkner singing?
PUmpkins and Mums!
Fall! Love it! Love the colors, going to the apple orchards and pumpkin patches...the leaves changing and pulling out sweaters and making soup! Love everything about i!
Thanks for all your amazing inspiration!!!
-Kristin B.
Fall colors are my favorite thing about fall and the thing I miss most about living in Colorado. Have a great weekend!
I ahve to go with a warm blanket and a pumpkin spice candle burning on the counter as my favorites for fall. Thanks for the giveaway!
My favorite moment that I have captured recently was just an ordinary day with my 3 year old little guy. He worked very hard on a castle, so I took a pic of him with his creation. His arms outstretched and a big smile. Of course, I caught the next moment which was the destruction of the castle.
Thanks for the chance! :)

i recently went through a bunch of short video clips of my boy as a newborn, so I've been toting the camcorder ALL the time. I love the tired giggles and muffled babbles, the yelling echoes, and especially the cheesy grins of a full belly :)
As for fall... I love FOOD! Pumpkin, cinnamon, and cream cheese. Mmmm
My favorite moment I've captured lately is the picture of my daughter dancing in her tutu.
I took a photo of my husband reading to our 2 months old last night. He was reading him the story of Tim Horton. Which I think my husband veiws as an important part of Canadian history, lol. What could be more important to an infant than hockey, coffee, and dough-nuts? Well, "lattes" for one.....
my favorite thing about fall is our family birthdays!!
My favorite thing about fall is hot cider and cinnamon doughnuts - yumm!! Just had some this morning and the cool crisp air is here I love it all!!
It may sound silly, but my favorite part of fall is making soup! I love making soup- potato, broccoli and cheese, split pea, beef stew. . .

mmm...just dipped my apples in caramel today. that has got to be my favorite thing right now.

my favorite fall things are hot apple cider, hayrides, and warm snuggly sweaters! xoxo andie...
My favorite thing about the fall has got to be my husband's and my anniversary! We chose October 10th, as our date not only because 10-10-10 is super cool but because the fall and october is our favorite seasons!
That necklace is so beautiful and it would make the perfect addition to my wedding- The Something Blue :D
Thank you for considering me!

Recently I was photographing both of my boys in front of their schools with a sign stating their grade. Well, my 1st grader took my 6th grader's sign, climbed up on the middle school sign and said "take my picture, mommy" and I did! My precious little boy---stealing a moment of being a big kid, like his brother!
favorite thing about fall?? .. . . kids are back in school!! ... to give me time to create!
My oldest went to his first high school dance!!
Ahh I love getting to wear sweaters, boots, and tights in the fall. I love everything about Fall! Definitely my favorite season!
Love fall, especially the cooler temperatures...and the sweaters, and hot chocolate that goes with them.

I took pictures last night with the timer on my camera of my daughter and I having our first official "girls' night in." We painted a tea set, watched a Disney princess movie, read a book and snuggled on the couch in our jammies!
My favorite thing about fall? Well honestly I'm such a lover of spring and summer that fall isn't my favorite season, but my favorite thing about fall (if it's gonna be fall) is that we go to this great apple farm (usually w/ the same friends every yr) where you can pick apples, and we got hot cocoa, and they serve apple crisp (which my husband purposely calls "apple betty" because that drives me crazy) and who doesn't love hot sugared doughnuts. MMMM. I also love that the season fosters this desire to make soups, sauces, stews, and I do love to cook. And taking the kids to this park with hundreds of trees and jumping in piles of orange and yellow colored leaves (and photographing it) is great. One more fav (oh no! Now it's sounding like I'm an actual fan of fall!) is my daughter's favorite fall tradition, that is, watching "The Wizard of Boz [Oz]"
I took pictures of my nephew driving a tractor at the parade...day off school, loving life as he rides along...days that pass to quickly.
fall in germany is six hours ahead of fall in virginia...
we get double the fun, all the fests in europe,
all the football in the states,
mashed together with family on both sides of the pond...perfect!
Your piano is lovely! What I adore about fall is the crisp air where everything just looks beautiful with colorful leaves and thoughts of Halloween in the back of your mind. I love Halloween and everything about it, from the sweets to the decorating and most importantly dressing up!
fall is my most favorite season! cooler weather, pumpkins, changing leaves, raking leaves, acorns etc. this is also my husband's favorite season, so that makes everything extra special
*hoping for a win!* i just love the fall season!
just recently captured a pic of my 9 y/o asleep w/sleeping mask on her forehead. She looked too cute, peaceful, no longer a little girl w/her freckles. =)
Wish I had my camera with me to capture some of the fun that I had at my scrapbooking crop the last 2 days!!!
Always love your posts!! As for the giveaway, thanks for the chance! I love the cooler weather, although here in Texas it seems it stays hot late into the fall :(
My favorite thing about fall is Football! Tailgate parties in the lot at Giants Stadium just love it.
And also my pumpkin candles...

New episodes of The Office and Packer games!
My favorite things about fall are going to the pumpkin patch with my kids, enjoying hot cider, and savoring the mild autumn mornings!
It's hard sometimes to choose a favorite thing about the fall season when it has been so darned cold here in Canada! Some years, summer runs well into fall, but apparently not this year.
However, I always enjoy the fall colors. And I love the way my little guy's wee hoodie looks on him when we go outside to play. So cute.
Thanks!
I enjoyed taking your class at Spark. I would love to win a contest!
My favorite thing about fall is Halloween and pumpkin bread. YUM!Heather C. in Sunny So.Cal (where we don't really have seasons so much....)
not in particular order: colours of the leaves, colder nights, sweaters, stews, apple picking and of course, Halloween!Michelle P.
I love the weather!
Have you picked a winner?? It is still technically Saturday for 1 more hour! Took my kids to the circus tonight...I had more fun watching and taking pictures of the expressions on their cute little faces then I did of the circus itself!
Hey Liz i met you at spark! what better time to leave my blog stalker comment than for a giveaway? fall is lovely! crisp air, leaves, pumpkins, Halloweenie and the smell of delicious spices.
Cool crisp days with gorgeous trees shining against a bright blue sky... ♥ autumn! And trying to capture those few words my dd still mispronounces (she's almost 7 now and it won't be much longer that I hear the cute "words" like certicketet for certificate).
You are so creative! I love it and all your awesome goodies! :)
