This is my Fall, enjoying life like never before... (PICS)

I've always loved the colors of fall... and the flavors. All the pumpkin, carrot and spice breads, the smells of the fresh baked goods, pot roasts, ummm good stuff! It is this stuff that has made Fall one of my favorite times of the year but I was never too fond of the weather. Having always lived in SoCal it was HOT and all the fashion that rolled in every September was long sleeves... pants... cowl necks.. beautiful stuff  that I longed to wear but at my weight I  was already sweaty..... so much so it was too much to add any extra clothes and that kinda kept me indoors!
For the last 6 years Ive lived in Northern Ca but I still never got into the boots and sweaters. Its much cooler and more fall like here but I was still always sweating due to my weight. So I aimed at staying in doors in some boxers and a wife beater so as not to sweat like a fat lil pig on Christmas day.
Well... this is my Fall.
My first Fall.... as grown up that I can actually enjoy!!! I loved being outside today, enjoying the weather, the scenery, the kids... and I was able to wear my fun fall clothes. Long sleeves... and boots........I never broke a sweat.. even when chasing after my bad boys!
My body is no longer getting in my way of living and loving my life...

Its official: I LOVE FALL....

I hope to enjoy next summer just as you are enjoying this fall.  You are truly an inspiration and a very beautiful woman.  Is that hubby I see?  Venturing off the couch and outside with the fam....you might be rubbing off on him.  Take care and keep having fun...for both of us til I'm on the losers bench.

I love that you're cataloging every little thing that has changed for the better since you changed your life.  Means that there are wonderful things around every single corner for you.  Love your attitude, I'm sure your kids are loving it too.

 You look great! I can't wait to wear boots like yours and actually be able to zip them all they way up! Thanks for sharing!

Looks like everyone had a great time..even the beautiful fat goats!  This is what its all about, family and being there for them for a long time.  You look great and better yet you look happy!  You have done so well Jenn,  so happy for  you girlie!  PS I made a big pot of stew the other day it was soooooo good and it was raining outside, just the right weather for hot stew and cornbread..!
