Fall...when the leaves turn maroon and orange!!

So I really thought that summer was my favorite season, but I have been eagerly waiting for fall to arrive. I don't know what it is, but I am just craving fall clothes, food, football, and weather!!! To me there is no better place to be in the fall than BLACKSBURG, VA! I left a piece of my heart there when I graduated. I knew that especially now that school is starting, I would miss not going back. Don't get me wrong, I love being married, my new job and being in Richmond. But if you went to school there, then you know what I am talking about. I want to share some of my favorite memories of fall at my home for 4 years. I can't wait to enjoy this fall in a whole different way. I know it won't be the same because I am not a student anymore and I am living in a city for the first time. That means I probably wont get to enjoy as many maroon and orange leaves, but believe me I will get the most out of this awesome season. Summer isn't over yet, but I have been making a fall bucket list that I want to share with you. This is to avoid it being December and me saying "I wish I had done             ."
I want to know: What is your favorite season and why?? Do you love fall as much as me? What are you looking forward to in the fall? What would you put on your fall bucket list?
