September is here!!!!!

September 1st (for me) is the beginning of fall. I finally get to put out my fall decorations and wear more autumn colors (I sneak them in a bit throughout the year because I just can't help myself). :-) I love fall so much I've decided to post an autumn quote every day from now through Thanksgiving. I don't know how that sounds to you but that sounds fabulous to me! :-)
