Fall.

I love fall in VA. This season it has been particularly wonderful. Warm/moderate temperatures, no big storms...And this week, the trees finally started changing colors!

First off...this weekend, C came out to DC to interview at Georgetown! It was so good seeing her again. We go back all the way to our first dorm room at BYU, 216 Heritage Halls. I have been sick all weekend, but we still got to do some fun things and look at the beautiful foliage. I'm really hoping she gets accepted and comes out east to hang out with me :)

A large group of singles wards met at Arlington Cemetery this Saturday to do a service project. We went through all the gravestones and wrote down if any had an Angel Moroni symbol on them, which represent LDS servicemen and women. I worked through a section with Korean War veterans because of my grandpas, and called Grandpa Morgan as I was walking down the rows. The Cemetery is such a solemn place...

 

This soldier was a POW in Vietnam for five years, escaped on New Years Eve 1968, and was killed in the Philippines in 1989.

I really have been amazed at how beautiful the colors have been the past week. I wish I have taken more pictures.

Sunday afternoon, Britt, Matt, Caity and I took a drive down the GW Parkway and stopped at a park along the river to walk in nature. It really was beautiful.

Matt got a little excited with this collage...

Summer will always be my favorite season, and spring a close second because it means winter is over and baseball is coming. But fall is right up there...especially at home in Virginia.
