I love October because:
- Both my wife and my daughter’s birthdays are in October (Ami = the 1st, Robin = the 20th)
- October is the month in which Robin and I started falling in love – sort of. (she’ll debate that)
- Pumpkin Pie, Pumpkin carving, Pumpkin EVERYTHING!
- It’s Halloween and all the joyous undead fun that goes along with it!
- FALL (aka the leaves turning colors) begins to settle in for the winter (uh?)
- It rains (a lot here in Portland!)
- World Series (ok, I don’t like Baseball AT ALL but I get hooked on the world series, it’s weird)
There are so many reasons… but the first two are the main ones. Here’s a pic to prove it!

It’s my favorite month too!!!!! I guess you could argue it all began in October …but I think it was more like November when you finally came around to realizing how much cooler I was than the 5 other girls that also had a crush on you
P.S. Why is it that we still can’t find any damn pumpkin pie!!!!
