Good day everyone! :)

Since it is October 2 and October is my favorite month of the year, it lead me to today's question. I LOVE October for so many reasons. I feel so energetic during this month!!! Love to be outdoors and enjoy raking leaves! :lol3: The cooler weather, the changing color of the trees and leaves, and all of the Fall farm festivals. We try to hit all of the pumpkin patches :pumpkin: in the area. We usually go up North to Door County to see all of the beautiful colors. To me, it is the most beautiful time of year. It is also our Anniversary month, my :heart3: dog, Wilbur and his brother, Henry's birthday month, I love Halloween too and all of the decorations that go along with it. Also, enjoy scary movies!

What is your favorite month of the year and why? :wavey:

October for same reasons.. and halloween!

I love the crisp, cool air, the smell of the leaves! I love having my windows opened at nights (no more AC!) and wearing my favorite sweat shirt!

Probably April.  Spring usually comes in March here; but we still get some icky weather on occasion.  So April when winter is behind us, flowers are blooming, trees are flowering and budding.  Plus it feels good to get out with the kids after being cooped up from cold weather.  And thats my planning and planting time too!  

I do love fall weather for about the same reasons; almost more than spring...but knowing winter is coming puts a damper on it.  Fall has a little advantage because there are more fun, family activities to do.  We just took our 2 year old apple picking for the first time and we will do a hayride, pumpkin picking soon too.  We don't celebrate halloween; but I use pumpkins and mums for fall decor.  Plus the place we go has animals you can pet.

That's a tough choice between October & November for me. Fall is my favorite season, but here in NC, it often doesn't feel like fall until November. So, for that reason, along with Thanksgiving, I think I have to say November!

October.

I love the changing leaves, the smell of autumn, cooler temps, Halloween.

The only thing I wish is that this stupid state I live in would actually follow the script and cool off...its 92ºF and humid as can be :( I just got home from NJ last night, and want to go back so bad because at least the north understands that it's fall!

I have 2 favorites. January and May. 

January 15 is my mom's birthday. So I get to do something special for her.

May is the month of mother's day. I chance to REALLY spoil my mommy. I am a big mama's girl. Those 2 days give me a very good reason to go nuts. I love her so much.

Well, my birthday is in October, and my mom's was in October 1 week after mine. Plus we got married in October so I would have to say October. May is a close second. I am not a fan of the extreme months (July and Jan/Feb). I prefer moderate tempetures to extreme.

April and May. With spring, it's a new beginning. I love to watch the tree buds turn into leaves. I love to walk around outside and see the gardens getting green. Getting ready to plant the vegetable garden. Opening the pool for another summer. Being outside. And even getting the mowers ready for mowing the lawn. After months of cold weather, snow and ice, and just general crappiness (IMO, because I despise winter), just breathing spring air makes me smile.

November and December are close seconds. The fall decorations are everywhere and everything looks so pretty. And then it's almost time for Christmas and all the lights and decorations for the season. I love working in the house and getting things ready for Christmas. All the baking, all the shopping, all the prep that's involved for the holidays.

October is my FAVORITE month! October 2nd is also our wedding anniversary, so that also makes it very special to me.  I also love Halloween, yes, even at MY age....
