Fall is finally starting to make its arrival here and I cannot tell you how excited I am about it! The older I have gotten the more I have started to enjoy September and October. I love seeing the trees change to reds, yellows, and oranges. I am sucker for a good homemade pumpkin pie, fire pit time, along with my pumpkin spice candles.
As I walked to class this morning and there was a briskness in the air and I soaked in every second. It is so nice to no longer have such a heavy haze in the air that always comes along with the summer months. By early August I tend to be getting sick of my summer clothes and am ready to move on. To top it off I stopped and picked up one of my first Pumpkin Spice Lattes from Starbucks at an early 7 a.m. which made my wake up call just a little bit better.
I can't wait to pull out my treasured Frye boots, jeans, along with my cozy sweaters! I am welcoming fall with open arms!
Today is also the 11th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks. It is a day that everyone remembers, down to what they were doing when they first heard the news to exactly where they were. Even though I was only in second grade I still remember the sadness and fear that went through our nation. All of the buses here at ECU have a flag along with 9/11/01 on the LCD screen. Everyone has a Facebook status or a tweet to show support for our country. It is a day where no matter where you live or where you are we come together as one to remember and show gratitude to all of the lives that were lost.
