It's Official - FALL is here!!!


I've been so happy with the weather thus far: it's almost the end of October and it's 65 - 75 degrees - I'm loving it!!

I've been chillin', still rocking my summer wardrobe and feeling just lovely.  However, it came as no surprise when I checked the temp this morning at it was 40 degrees. I couldn't even 'feel no way' 'cause we've been doing so good.
