The brisk air of fall seems to put me into somewhat of a memory like state. My mind wonders back to fall leaf drives in years past: the windows down, the sun beating on my skin, the smells of fresh cut hay, harvest, and autumn as we go through the canyon. Then my mind turns to the feelings of new love: when I would stand in the arms of my dearest friend on a late autumn evening and stare up into the heavens as he pointed out the first star of the night. He would have me wish upon it...when I already had my wish coming true just being in his arms. The next flash back is the first time we held hands. Another autumn night. We were in that magical ambiance of the State Fair, with its music and hustle and bustle. Throughout the day our hands had bounced back and forth as we'd walked around the different venues, both of us too afraid to latched them together. Then as I came out of the restroom late in the evening it just happened (he says I held his hand, I SWEAR he held mine!) It was tingly and wonderful. This year, our third year at the state fair we reenacted it. It was amazing to think that now we have a baby on the way. It was still magical to be there with him, loving him more than ever. We even took baby to his first concert, making new memories this fall. He loved the Christian music and wiggled around when they sang about Jesus. I mean he had even chance in the world while they were playing Led Zepplan and the likes, but no, he saved his dancing for his "Jesus" music as his Grandpa calls it. These are just a few reasons why I love fall.....Oh and don't forget I LOVE FALL FOOTBALL....to be continued.
