I heard on the news that starting on Saturday, right after Halloween, it’ll be snowing and cold here in Utah. The Fall weather has been so nice and I’m so sad we have to say good bye! Fall in Utah lasts only for a few weeks which is just way too short. So we’ve been taking advantage of the slightly cool but sunny weather as much as we can.
On our walk to the park, we were surrounded by dry leaves and it got me so excited. I’m one of those people who go out of the way to step on that giant crunchy leaf so this right here my friends, was my dream. My daughter said to me while watching me scream in excitement and running around, stepping on the dry leaves, “Mommy, you’re so happy, is this your heaven? Let me take a video of your heaven!”
It was my heaven. Spending everyday with my kids is my heaven. Remember when I vented about resenting motherhood? That phase passed awhile ago but I guess I vent on here when I feel frustrated but don’t update you on it afterwards, which I probably should. That phase is long gone now and I love being a stay at home mom, I’m back to myself again, hallelujah! (my husband is probably chanting hallelujah way louder than me! 😉 My ambition and dreams are still there, but there is a time for everything and my time right now is to play with my kids and step on those crunchy leaves! I am so grateful for the life that I have.

I try to enjoy these times of fall. I grew up in Las Vegas where crunchy leaves, perfect temperatures and such don't exist during "fall." It's so fun and beautiful here, even if it is just a few weeks. So thanks for the warning about snow coming. I will spend my time outside the next few days and let it soak in.

I'm one of those people who are really excited anout the sound of the leaves too! I use to always want a big pile of leaves to jump into like in movies until I realized how painful they actually are when they poke you. FaIl is definitely my favorite season!
