2 mile run and I'm ready for fall.

My run yesterday didn't suck as much as I thought it would.  Well besides the fact that I got eaten alive by mosquitos.   When I stopped at two miles I felt something on my leg and I look down and my legs are literally covered with mosquitos.  I started to freak out.  We have a really bad mosquito problem where we live and you really can't go outside without getting eaten alive.  This morning the bumps all showed up on my legs and I counted about ten of them, just from my run yesterday. 

Other than that small detail, my run went really well.  My knees didn't give me much trouble and I didn't feel like I was going to die by the time I reached two miles.  I actually felt like I could have easily ran double that yesterday, but I didn't want to get a ahead of myself.   




Life has kind of slowed down, which has made me really happy. 
I am ready for fall.
It's my favorite time of year. 
I love summer, but there is just something about fall that I really enjoy. 
The changing leaves
Cuddling on the couch watching football with my husband
Long naps on the weekends
Taking Sunday drives with the kids to see the colorful leaves
Decorating my house with Halloween decorations (my favorite holiday to decorate for)
Making yummy fall food like soups and homemade bread
Going to the pumpkin patch with the kids
Watching television series on Netflix (need to finish up Dexter)
Wearing flannel pajamas and hooded sweatshirts

I'm pretty sure I could go on and on...
I am really going to enjoy fall this year because next fall we will be living in St. George and I know it will definitely be different there as far the seasons go.  :)
