1. It's Steve's birthday month!
2. The weather begins to be cooler and less humid.
3. I can start getting fall decorations out!
4. And soon we can start eating more "fall food" - more soup, stew, etc.
5. School starts... for some people. Some schools here have already been in for a month. But I still think of September as the month to go back to school.
6. The leaves are beginning to change.
7. The knitting gets even better!
8. It's okay to pull out my fall scented candles now. I have a hard time finding summer candles that aren't too flowery. There is never a problem with fall candles!
9. That football feeling... After I was out of college, I would get this "football feeling" on crisp Saturday mornings. It made me want to be back at the stadium at school, watching the game. (Speaking of football, did you watch the VT /GT game last night? The Jackets were sooo close to winning! It was definitely an exciting game.)
10. I can start to wear my fall/winter wardrobe again. It's much better than my spring/summer wardrobe because it includes shawls and scarves! :)

So many birthdays this month! My daughter's is on Friday and my moms is at the end of the month. I'm so looking forward to football this year!

Oooh - I love fall too - for most of those same reasons. It's the best time of year! Plus... it's a great time to knit a sweater. Enjoy!

I lit my Macintosh candle yesterday and it felt like fall, that's for sure. So much to love about this month!

As a summer girl, it's hard for me to appreciate September, but I do love the coziness of the season when it comes. It definitely makes knitting more comfortable!

we have a lot in common on our lists... can't believe I forgot the candles! (and I only saw the very end of the game...disappointing!)
