  • GTKY: What is your favorite season and why?

    My favorite season is Fall! I love fall clothes and it means Halloween is around the corner, then comes Thanksgiving, then my favorite time of year (but I don't like winter so much lol) CHRISTMAS!

  • I definitely love summer the best! Warm weather, vacations, and now my daughter's birthday... it's a great time of year! I also love December because it's my birthday and Christmas but I'm not crazy about the rest of winter.

    Oh, I loooovveeee fall! Sweaters, cool breezes, chai tea! It just warms my heart thinking that it's just a few months away! I moved to KY from MS and AL, where the seasons are just summer and winter, so I really love fall, with spring being a close second!

  • My birthday is the first day of spring so I'm partial to the season. Also I live in NY so spring means the snow will finally start to melt and warmer weather is coming (at some point). But I LOVE fall! The crunchy leaves, the smell of the air, Halloween, sweaters and scarfs, and fall activities - it's my absolute favorite time of year!

    I also really love fall. It's still bright and clear out, the air is crisp and the trees and gorgeous. I also love it because it feels almost like a new year to me, probably because of back-to-school. It always feels like the start of something new.

    Spring!  It means the end of winter, flowers are blooming, leaves are emerging, baby animals are born.

  • I honestly love all seasons. I love the change. I love summer, but by October I am ready for some fall, I love fall, but I do love decorating for Christmas, and then after Christmas I am ready for Spring, then by May I am ready for the slow pace of summer.

    Now, I live in Florida so we only have two seasons, summer and cooler. But, I try and celebrate the seasons even if the weather is the same. 
  • My favorite season is usually summer. This one has been weird for me though because I'm so hot due to pregnancy. I also can't do all the things I normally like to. Otherwise sitting on a chair outside sipping decaf tea is a great way to spend my summer!

  • Each season has so much to offer, but if I had to pick one I think it would be spring. I live in the high desert and in the spring we get amazing wildflowers. It is the time of year where it is warm enough to go for mountain bike rides and trail runs without freezing! The temperature cools off at night so I sleep really good but is warm enough for me to want to be outside in the sun.

  • I love fall, although we don't tend to get a lot of that cool, crisp weather here. I love leaves changes and wearing layers, but not needing a coat yet.

  • Fall, hands down! The weather is usually perfect in NC in the fall, the smell of burning leaves is my favorite smell, mine and my DD's birthdays, Halloween, comfy clothes, pumpkin everything. Oh, and FOOTBALL!!! We have season tickets to App State football games in the mountains so I look forward to that every year. Now I'm doing an impatient happy dance in my chair waiting for fall to get here.

    I love winter bc of the holidays and also mostly bc it means ski/snowboard season! Although I won't be able to go this year :( but I also love summer bc it's so much easier to get out of the house. It means not having to put on a jacket for me and the baby!

  • I love fall! I love the cool crisp air, the crunch of the leaves and the changing colors. I really am a jeans, boots and sweater kinda girl and I always feel most comfortable in fall attire! Also, hayrides, pumpkin picking and pumpkin flavored drinks/food are great! 
  • Definitely fall.  I love everything about it - tailgating for football games, Halloween, pumpkins, candy corn ;-)  I live in MI and when the leaves change color, it is so beautiful!  I was just telling my husband yesterday that I can't wait for fall this year!
  • Despite not really loving the heat I think I'd still say summer. It's so much easier to get outside and do things without needing to put a million layers on myself and Owen. There's so many fun things to do in the summer that are really cheap or free, unlike winter where it seems anywhere indoors we go is $10+ per person.

  • Fall for sure. I love fall clothes, bonfires, apple cider and psl, I love cozy days with the fireplace and my DD and DH. Cannot freaking wait for the end of September.

  • I love the summer - swimming, sitting outside and the ability to go to the park.  I live in Chicago which means are winters are horrible and fall and spring are hit or miss.

    Definitely fall :) I love the weather, the clothes, tailgating, it's my birthday, and Halloween! 
  • I love the fall. There's something magical in the air that just makes me smile. The mix of pumpkin spice, apple cinnamon, and evergreen scents plus the anticipation of family getting together for the different holidays and top it off with a break from the intense FL heat (we may get below 80 degrees!!! I may actually wear boots before December!!) just can't be beat. I'm smiling just thinking how it's 3 months away.

  • Depends on where I'm living ;)

    I used to love summer when I was growing up since we lived at the beach, but summer in the midwest is basically just hot and humid and not as fun, so probably spring here. Love wearing dresses, going hiking, freshly blossomed flowers, and that feeling like everything is alive.
  • I am so Mr. Ms. Autumn Man Lady Walking Down Street With Cup Of Coffee, Wearing Sweater Over Plaid Collared Shirt from that Onion article. Autumn is my aesthetic. I want to be, like, on a hayride right now

    That said, I appreciate every season except winter (which I can occasionally appreciate during the holiday season). I didn't used to have a problem with winter as a kid - did I not feel the cold like I do now? I don't know, but I do know that man, I really hate the cold. Also the lack of daylight.

  • The fall is my favorite for a lot of the reasons mentioned by others above. I adore Halloween and all fall activities. It's going to be so fun being pregnant this Halloween. I can't wait to get creative with it. Also, I want one of those skeleton shirts with the baby skeleton that sits over your bump. Don't care if it's cheesy, I think it's awesome. 
  • KimC85KimC85 member
    Tough call. Not winter, it's just dark and rainy. I'd say summer. We love camping and swimming so summer is best for that! Second would be fall. I love the crisp air and wearing boots and sweaters! 
  • It's a toss-up between fall and winter for me, I love the cold and wearing sweaters and playing board games with DH while cuddled up under blankets sipping hot tea or cider. I used to enjoy summer more, but after previously living in Hawaii and having three straight years of summer, I'm just over it. I'm doing my best to enjoy being able to go do things outside but I can't help wishing fall would hurry up and get here.

  • I love the fall--pumpkin everything, apple picking, boots and over sized sweaters and most importantly college football Saturdays! lol 
  • rdh33rdh33 member
    Summer, hands down. No matter where I've lived -- subtropical, PNW perfection (with a bit of rain, for good measure), high desert... summer is my jam. I love the heat, the longer days, berries, bbqs, hammocks, sunflowers, vegetable gardening, swimming in every type of body of water, camping under the stars... ahh. Bliss. 
  • Summer! I love teaching, but having time to spend with my own family is nice!

  • Probably spring and summer (they are kind of the same thing here). I love the colors of fall but we only have a few weeks before we have seven months of winter.
  • I absolutely love fall! Halloween is my favorite holiday because I can decorate and carve pumpkins. I get to live in heavy cardigans and go apple picking to make apple crisp every other weekend. It also gives me an excuse to make a ton of pumpkin bread and eat some with cream cheese basically every morning. Winter is a close second, but living so far north in Germany means the sun doesn't come up until like 10am and sets before 4pm (if the sun is out at all). It's really hard to make it through the whole season without a trip somewhere south at some point for a quick dose of sunshine.

  • As much as I love Summer and the beach, my "soul seasons"  are Fall and Winter! This has to do with the Holidays and family get-togethers. Also, we typically have a pretty mild winter (compared to other states) although sometimes Mother Nature throws us a curve ball!

  • I'm another one for team fall. Autumn in England is just incredibly beautiful, especially once I get out of London! It's also consistently the least disappointing season here (constant rain in winter, and then spring and summer can also fail and be cold and rainy. Lol the stereotypes are true!). Fall also wins for where I grew up in upstate New York. Husband and I had a fall wedding in Rochester and the colours were AMAZING. Besides the scenery it's the best season for clothes and temperature!

  • Fall. Beautiful sunsets, fire pits with marshmallows, crunching leaves, stunning foliage, football, apple cider, flannel pj pants, quilts, the smell of cinnamon, crisp cool mornings, ugh, I just love it all! 

    I am so over summer.

  • Mine would have to be winter. Where I live it is either scorching hot or cooler temps. Summer is second but that is only because school is out and we can travel to cooler weather for camping.
