Happy Fall

It's becoming Fall more and more each day here. The days are getting shorter, the rain is more consistent, and of course the trees are turning there crazy colours. They are so beautiful. All of this completely changes the feel of a city. It's really quite amazing the transfermation from hot to cool, sandals to scarfs. All the sudden the streets that were once filled with crowds, voices, and heat are now filled with a cool breeze and all these colours. It's a calming time of the year where everything just seems cozy and fresh. Although I am a sucker for the summer, it's no disapointment to trade the heat for crisp air and a fall pallet.
I missed my first thanksgiving with my family this year. I can't help but feel a little sad and homesick about that. I absolutely love thanksgiving with my family and I always look forward to it. Theres a lot of tradition I just know I missed out on. The tradition of seeing family not seen since last christmas. The tradition of feeding geese at the pond, or a good hike with the whole bunch of us. The worldwide tradition of being treated to an enormous turkey dinner, complete with sweet potatoes and grandmas awesome pumkin pie. And last be not least my family's own tradition of toping the night off with a very competitive game of "Outburst"! Doesn't get any better. I think my nana must of won this year!! I hope you all had a blast. I just wanted to say Happy Thanksgiving to all those canadian buffs... I am very thankful for all my family and friends out there.

And although I may have missed out on traditions, and am very thankful and excited to start new ones with my husband and Seattle friends.
