How is summer already over?! As much as I love summer, I am looking forward to this new season ahead. We’ve been treated to a few fall-like mornings this week, and admittedly, it helped me be ready to fully embrace the cooler mornings, pumpkin everything, and rotation of cozy sweaters.

The prospect of fall has inspired me with a new wave of hope and happiness for what’s ahead. On our calendar this month, I am headed to Asheville with Jody for his work conference, a few hikes, and currently, we spending the weekend in Colorado with our dear friends and their baby. I honestly can’t think of a better way to kick off fall! 🙂

2. Go on three phone free walks with Jody a week and plan a date night out at a restaurant we haven’t visited in a while.
