FALLLLLLLLLLL!!!

So I know that fall has officially been here for a while now....but I'm just starting to get into it! Because we've been so busy with school and work and finishing the basement of our house, we didn't have much of a summer, so I was totally in denial that summer was ending....BUT, now that I have accepted the fact that summer is OVER, I decided that fall might just be my new favorite season. The only way I can really explain it is this:

Fall makes me feel COZY!!!!

You might not understand that...but there is just something about going inside from a cool crisp day and being able to make hot chocolate and cozy up by the fire....

Here are some of my favorite things about my new favorite season:

1) Being able to drink hot chocolate
2) Halloween and costume parties
3) The yummy smell of pumpkin spice candles and home made treats
4)Being able to break out my exquisite fall/winter wardrobe (much cuter than the summer wardrobe, (you can be much more creative-I LOVE layers...and coats...and boots....and CLOTHES. Period.)
5)Haunted Houses....LOVE THEM!!!
6)Corn Mazes...also fun
7)The leaves OF course, especially up at the cabin.
8) Halloween decorations and carving pumpkins (I've done awful this year with decorating, because I've been so busy, next year I promise my decorating will be FABULOUS!
9)Full Moon lift rides up at Sundance
10) Knowing that Christmas is well on it's way!!!!

I'm sure there are lots more things I love but I just can't think of them right now....I'll add more if i think of more. There are a few things that I HATE about the weather changing....

1) I HATE HATE HATE having to scrape frost off my car windows...I'd rather die! (thank goodness I have a garage now to help with that factor!)
2) Losing your summer tan is the worst...Not that I ever got much of one this year anyway.
3) Getting into a freezing car and gripping the steering wheel and being shocked by the icy coldness of it.

Well bottom line is that I love fall, but like anything else, there is always a little bad with the good!

Frischknecht Fam

So pretty much- my extended family is awesome. We've had a few fun adventures lately, up to the cabin, down to Lake Mohave on the houseboat, and a few others. The annual Frisch Fam Halloween party is coming up, and that's always a good time! You just gotta love them Sanpete County folk, ya know? The cowboy boots, the non-stop hunting, cowboy poetry, docking sheep in the spring....what's not to love?? When I go to the rodeo with the fam every 24th of july, I "dress up" in my boots and cowboy hat just for fun.....but for them it's not dress up, they are the hard core cowboys you see with the wranglers, stetson's, and REAL boots (I don't know any boot brands lol....besides like steve madden and that's the wrong kind of boot) Anyway...my fam is crazy and fun and I love them!! My granny is 85 and still partyin with the family, I'm gonna be just like that lady some day. Here are a few pics of some of the fun we've had the last little while....
