The crisp Autumn air, leaves blowing and cool evengings with the windows open. The leaves turning colors and bonfires are always something to look forward to.

My favorite part of fall, living in West Virginia, is the beautiful colorful trees that makes the mountains so pretty. This year is more special because I have my new family here with me. This is their first time of experiencing the beautiful mountains in the fall and they love it. Actually, having my family here with me this fall IS my favorite part of fall.

My favorite part of fall is seeing the leaves turning color. My other favorite part of fall is that it's time for Marching Band. Seeing all the buses going through down means its fall. And the other part of that are the football game halftimes we play at. I love halftime. Fall is awesome cuz other sports come around too. Shout out to NHS Volleyball. And to NMK. Love you HMH

I also like to watch football. Volleyball makes me fall asleep when i watch it (no offense). My favorite thing of the fall season is the Covered Bridge Festival though. Almost time for me to come back home and I can't wait. Iraq is not the place for me.

Watching football and volleyball (no offense to anyone but I don't like watching band)
