Default QOTD: What's your favorite...

I'm a little bored this morning so I thought I'd post a QOTD.

What's your favorite season or time of year?

My absolute favorite time of year is the fall. I love the warm days, and cool nights, the smells, the colors, the holidays, everything! And fall means FOOTBALL. Seriously the fall is my favorite time of year. I so wish Kennedy would have been a Halloween baby.

Fall for me, too. I love the cool crispness...a chill in the air is my favorite (but not COLD). Love hayrides and pumkins and all the gorgeous colors, too. Bring on October!

Autumn!!! Soccer's in season, the leaves are changing, everything is cooling off... it just looks and feels and smells so amazing around here in the autumn that it's my favorite.

Fall fall and more fall. It's a relief from summer heat, it's the biggest change we see in the environment, and it seems to happen all at once. Spring comes in bursts during winter, so it's no surprise. Fall brings on our favorite time of the year and is just wonderful!

Spring, without a doubt. I love the sense of renewal, the warm but not too hot weather. Seeing the trees and wildflowers bloom, it's feel good stuff for me.

I'd say Winter with Spring a close second.

I love the cold, dark nights. The snow & rain when I'm nice and warm in the house. I love everything about Winter!

But they you have the freshness of Spring, the flowers starting to bloom, I live near lots of trees so it's always nice to see them looking nice and healthy during Spring lol.

Autumn, for several reasons. I love the colors...one of my favorite things about moving to OKC from Houston was getting to see real fall colors. (In Houston it all seems to just turn brown).
Cool weather. Cool weather. Cool weather. I HATE the heat...fall is a nice break.
The state fair and Rachel's birthday are in the fall...not to mention costume season!

When I lived in Houston, I preferred spring because of the wildflowers...I love bluebonnet season...and the rain. But up here, spring is tornado season

I love Winter/Christmas...it's just something about snuggling up in front of the fireplace on cold winter days...

Fall! I can finally open the windows, make soup, drink coffee all day without melting, get ready for Halloween and Thanksgiving, go outside after my summer hibernation from the heat! I LOVE IT!

For me it's more about light than a particular time of the year - I love when the days are longer (it's so depressing to go from work in the dark), so I love spring, summer and early autumn. And I love whatever season when it's sunny and not too hot. I detest cold and darkness, so I'm not a fan of winter, even though it has its charm when it's snowy (and sunny)... So, give me light and an agreeable amount of warmness and I'm happy.

If I should vote for a season, I'd vote for spring - since I don't like winter, spring is always such a relief... the beginning of a life cycle and the sudden awakening of nature. I tend to suffer from depression in winter, so I see spring as a huge blessing. It has a freshness about itself that autumn doesn't have, though the colours of autumn are pretty as well.

I wish we had fall here As it stands, my favorite season would probably be early summer (our weak approximation of spring) that would be from jan-mar when it's still cool but not sweltering.

Summer, because our weather here really isn't all that nice year round, but we sometimes get lucky with warm weather during the summer.

But I also love Christmas, which I guess is my fave holiday season

This is me exactly...right down to the football! My DD was born in October...but it's the 2nd, so sometimes is still a little hot. But I'm always in such a great mood and I love planning her bday parties!!

I'm a fall girl too, I think growing up in Florida, it was always sooo nice when fall came around. We lived on the Gulf and many a night was spent sitting on my best friend's dock, in the nice crisp air, just hanging out.

And now I love fall because its so much fun with kids!

Spring without a doubt. Days are getting longer....I love sitting outside with a cold drink and a good book. Summer is fun too, if summer is not that warm. Our springs are often warmer than summers though....

This year we had a beautiful April and May (partly)....and summer uptill now is nothing yet...

Spring is tops for me with that sense of anticipation in the air. Colors are starting to get brighter, people start to smile and shake off the winter doldrums, flowers are starting to come out, the bright spring leaves are lighting up tree branches, kitties/puppies/chicks/bunnies are born, and everyone seems to be on the brink of falling in love.

Hmmm . . . tossup here between Fall & Spring. I love the freshness of Spring and the colors & crispness of Fall. The only reason I don't like Fall is that Winter (which I HATE) comes right after. But in Spring, I have allergies - and some years (like this one), it's followed by a brutal Summer. So I just can't make up my mind . . . I guess as long as I can have my windows open with fresh air streaming in, I don't care what season it is!

Spring. No question. I hate being cold. Spring means winter is over and flowers are starting to bloom. You can open the windows and let in fresh air. Everything is new and I can start wearing shorts. LOVE springtime.

Considering where I live, seasons have more to do with other things for me rather than temperatures and nature. I like fall because of football and the anticipation of the upcoming holidays, but the temps don't start coming down until late October. Then, weather-wise it's great until about mid-May.

The only time I really don't like is right now. High temps and high (for us) humidity, and throw in those massive dust storms and it's just gross. The only thing I like about summer is having my boys home every day. I'm always sad when school starts (in less than a month! )
