I'm dreaming of a....

White Christmas.

I woke up this morning with the songs from the movie “White Christmas” stuck in my head. I love that movie.

I actually thought of watching it today, but, alas, I left it at my parent’s house in Okie-land. Boo.

I know it’s only the beginning of October, but I could listen to Christmas music, or watch Christmas movies almost any time of year.

I am actually listening to my All-Skate Christmas album as I type this.

J It makes me happy.

While I am definitely looking forward to Christmastime, especially the fact that I get to go home for a few days and see all of my Okla-homies, I am also enjoying this season of Autumn.

I think Fall is my favorite season.

The heat of summer has finally started to subside and the leaves are starting to change color, and there’s an actual (not-just-for-the-style) reason to wear a scarf!

(Plus, it means Christmas is only a couple months away!)

Pumkin Spice Lattes, Pumkin Spice Candles, Pumpkin Patches, Pumpkin Carving!

Who knew a squash could be so popular?!

I’m so glad God gave us seasonal changes.

In weather, and in life.

Now, I’m not the world’s biggest fan of change.

But there are certain times when change is exactly what you need.

Change of scenery. Change of direction. Change of perspective.

All good kinds of change.

But, those are not always the easy kind. Change can be a real doozie, especially when you’re not expecting it.

What really matters is how you handle the change when it does come.  Do you freak out and complain, or take it as it comes, embracing the fact that sometimes you can’t do anything to control what’s going on around you. Or maybe you’re like me and sometimes do both, one right after the other J

Thankfully seasonal changes are expected, and welcome.

Welcome Fall! You’re just what I needed!
