It's Fall!!!!

My favorite time of year!  Today marks the autumnal equinox.  Which just means it's fall.

I waited til late September to get married because I wanted to be married in the fall. I had a beautiful sunny wedding day.

We went to Boston and Maine for our Honeymoon and it was fabulous.

I love this time of year for many reasons. I love the smell of burning leaves, and the beautiful colors of the leaves on the trees.  I love the crisp cool air, and the bright sunny days.  It's the perfect time of year!

It's fall...............

Time to change the clocks back to Standard time tonight.

Unless you live in the states that don't change. I think they are Indiana and Arizona.

So, tonight before you go to bed, turn all your clocks back one hour. Don't forget!

We switch back again to Daylight savings on March 14, 2010.

Fall...........and grasshoppers

Today is the first official day of fall.

The autumnal equinox.

It's also my favorite time of year.

The cool crispness of the mornings.

The beautiful trees changing colors.

I had always wanted to be married in the fall, and I was!!

This year I have noticed a lot of grasshoppers around, so has my little guy. We are both fascinated with them this year.

Right now they are busy mating and laying eggs. I noticed a female waling around getting ready to lay her eggs.

You might ask how I know it was a female and readying to lay her eggs. Well, I looked it up based on what she looked like.

The information said she was ovapositing her eggs. It was fascinating to watch.

The little guy likes to catch them in his hands or extend his fingers so they crawl onto them. It's been fun with the grasshoppers this year.

Fall.................

Monday is officially the first day of fall.

I love this time of year.

I was driving with my son this morning and saw the most beautiful red fall tree among a whole bunch of vibrant green trees.

It was beautiful. It just should out so much among the green trees.

I did not get a picture but the picture above is close to it.
