You might just need to do a fall dance...

I had been praying, crossing my fingers and doing a "fall dance" (like a rain dance, but in hopes of fall instead of no rain) that this weekend would finally feel like fall. I had chili and cornbread on the menu and I bought caramel apples. I thought if I wished hard enough for fall that it would just show up...well it actually worked!

Friday evening was our fall kick off. We had our friends Brian and Courtney over for fall food, fall drinks and then of course a bonfire.
Conversations around a bonfire simply can't be beat. I don't know what it is, but some of my favorite conversations ever have happened around a bonfire. Carmel apples by the bonfire are pretty fun too.
Then Drew decided to spice things up and set a wooden plane on fire...that show lasted about .5 seconds and then it was over. At least he tried...
I'm so happy fall showed up this weekend in Ohio. If fall hasn't graced you with it's presence yet maybe you need to try a fall dance too. It worked for me!

I definitely need to try doing a fall dance. It's crisp and cool in the mornings here, but still pretty hot in the afternoon! I'm definitely ready for the fall, and all the clothes and treats it brings with it!
