Autumn is my favorite season. Although I do enjoy all the seasons. They all have a special meaning to me. Along with the different activities they create.
Winter I enjoy because of the snow. I love watching it snow under a cozy blanket and a hot cup of coco. how about the days you take a stroll with no destination, how the cool air feels against your skin. The sound of silence and the crunch of snow under your feet. I love going snowboarding or sledding. Spending the entire day playing in the cold snow. Then ending it by taking a warm shower, and putting on dry clothes. finally climbing under a fluffy blanket with hot chili and coco. I also like this season because it is my oldest sons birthday, and Christmas.
Spring is so refreshing. The weather is warming up, and the snow is melting. I do love the smell of fresh flowers growing. though I don’t like the way they trigger my allergies. Another reason I like this season is my daughter and husband’s birthdays. Along with celebrating Easter and St. Patrick’s day. I like the feeling of fresh beginnings spring brings. I love how satisfying spring cleaning is. When I was young my mom use to open all the doors and windows when she did her spring cleaning. After spending the day cleaning, we would close the windows and doors. Then we would light candles, enjoy a movie, and have a good dinner.
Summer is equally as fun as winter. The activities are endless. Swimming, hiking, picnics, fishing, and camping. I love the smell of campfires along with the taste of burnt marshmallows and hot dogs. How about waking up in the woods to the sound of birds singing. The heavy sweating after walking a trail, feeling like you just hit the gym. We love taking the kids to the swimming pool, enjoying the sun on our skin and playing with the kids. This is also a great season for activities at the library. We take the kids all summer to keep their minds growing without the daily school curriculum. I like to read as much as they do, win; win. The fourth of July was always another great holiday. I have memories of sitting on grandma’s roof, eating snacks and watching the fireworks. Now I get to watch my kids with the same excitement.
I saved the best for last! My favorite season is Autumn. After the heat from summer it is nice to have cool air again. I love the cardigans and sweaters. The wonderful taste of pumpkin spice coffee while enjoying the crisp morning air. The beautiful sites of the changing of the leaves. In Colorado many ski resorts will give you a turn on the lifts. I enjoy the sound of the dead leaves as they crunch under my feet. I light a lot of my favorite candles during this season, and yes they are cinnamon, pine, and pumpkin spice. Additionally I also get to celebrate mine and my youngest son’s birthdays. Along with Halloween and Thanksgiving. The holidays give me a chance to show off my baking skills.
there are many reasons to love all the seasons. For me though Autumn will always be my favorite.
