Fall.

I have to admit. Northern California has a wonderful, beautiful, amazing fall.

Idaho's fall weather lasts about 2-3 weeks. It goes from hot to freezing within a matter of weeks. My parents told me they are already in the freezing temperatures at night.

Northern California is great. I haven't ran my heat or air conditioning once for two months now. The weather has been a perfect 75-80 degrees every day. It has rained a couple times but every day is blue skies. The trees are changing colors and we can actually be outside and enjoy them because it is warm enough. The boys have been in jackets maybe once, and it is almost November. I love it.

We have done a lot of playing outside. We recently planted some broccoli plants that was graciously given to us from a family from church. We have some amazing above ground garden beds. I am going to take full advantage of them next spring. I am still getting used to the fact that we are able to grow things in the winter. Idaho... We grow snow. The boys have been playing in the yard quite a bit enjoying the fallen leaves and twigs. They love the pumpkins on the front steps because they picked them out and placed them where they wanted them. It is too cute.

We are definitely enjoying fall this year. Halloween is supposed to be in the mid-70's. The boys are going to be Buzz Lightyear and Woody. I took a picture of them in their costumes when they arrived in the mail. Adorable.
