Autumn is our favorite season! We love the vibrancy of deciduous trees as foliage changes color from green to golden-yellow to red. We love watching the leaves dance in the air as they gracefully fall on the ground, offering children a playground heaven to jump into! We love the cool crispness in the air during mornings and nights, while still enjoying the bright warm sun during the day. We love all the fun Fall inspired activities bring us: from going to the farm to pick berries, pumpkins or apples, to hay rides and corn mazes. The natural scenery is breathtaking, fireplaces are starting to burn, apple cider is being served, and anticipation of holidays fills us with much excitement.
