Does anyone else feel like the months of September and October always fly by way too fast? It’s like I wait all year long for my favorite ‘ber months to get here (hello fall, hello pumpkin everything), then I blink my eyes for one second and they’re more than halfway gone already. Boo!

It was the best of times!
