Okay, I know it’s only September 6th, but I’m already loving this month! \u00a0Here are some reasons to love September:<\/p>\n

1. End of summer events\"\"<\/a>
\n<\/a><\/h4>\n

We’ve recently been trying to soak up the remainder of summer- and I love any reason to have a gathering. \u00a0BBQs, dinner on the deck, and game nights around the fire– perfect ways to say “au revoir” to summer!<\/p>\n

2. \u00a0Apples<\/h4>\n\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
How awesome is this picture via\u00a0http:\/\/www.alamodejournals.com\/index.php\/2010\/12\/weekender-sf-part-ii\/<\/a>?<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

September falls during apple harvest- and I live in the apple capital of the world. \u00a0{Which works out pretty well, because I love apples!} \u00a0<\/i>September just seems like a great month to bake an apple pie, or make an apple sangria. \u00a0Here’s a recipe I’ve tried out for apple oatmeal cookies with brown butter frosting<\/a>. \u00a0They are delicious!\u00a0<\/i><\/p>\n

3. Football season<\/h4>\n
\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

Even if you’re not the biggest football fan, football games still give us another reason to gather and have a good time. \u00a0I decided this year that I was going to actually follow the games and be a football fan, and I’m really enjoying it so far! \u00a0I’m really hoping to head back to my alma mater to catch a Coug game this year. \u00a0Plus- there’s tailgating. \u00a0Need I say more?<\/p>\n

4. Fall fashion<\/h4>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/h4>\n

I created this set on Polyvore. I love fall fashion- scarves, boots, sweaters… September is great because it gets colder, but you can still dress up without having to bundle up. Plus, I live in a land where it snows, so in September I can still get away with heels :-)<\/p>\n

5. National Miniature Golf Day (September 21st)<\/h4>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/h4>\n

Do we even need a reason to play mini golf? Well, if you do, here it is. September 21st is National Mini Golf Day. So find a mini golf course near you and have fun!<\/p>\n

6. Hot beverages<\/h4>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/h4>\n

Now that it is September, it feels okay ordering a hot latte instead of an iced one. \u00a0Maybe it’s because Starbucks waits until September to roll out their famous pumpkin spiced lattes. \u00a0Regardless, I love a nice hot coffee. \u00a0Don’t get me wrong, I love iced as well, but it doesn’t feel “right” ordering a hot beverage during summer- so September gives me the okay to go hot.<\/p>\n

7. Dark manis<\/h4>\n
\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

How pretty is this fall palette? I made sure to do the brightest of brights on my nails this summer, but now I’m ready for these fabulous darker shades for fall!<\/p>\n

8. National Coffee Day (September 29th)<\/h4>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/h4>\n
\n

I love coffee. And I have it every day. But, I’m thinking National Coffee Day might just be a good excuse for me to make a Starbucks run later in the day :-)<\/p>\n

So– there you have it. Eight reasons to love September. Make the most of a wonderful month!<\/p>\n

Wishing you the best of September moments.<\/p>\n

Happy Friday!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
