When we first moved to Tanzania, we had originally planned on taking our first furlough after two years, which would have put us there last spring. However, Brett and I both love the fall and it's something we miss while in Tanzania. No leaves changing colors, no college football, no sitting in sweatshirts by a fire sipping cider (though as much as I love fall, I'm pretty sure I wouldn't trade my year-round 75-80 degree weather). So we pushed our furlough back 5 or 6 months so that we could be home for all those things. The leaves are my favorite thing. We made Baylor play in the leaves for the first time. I say made because she didn't seem too keen on the idea. Once in, she had fun, but only for a few minutes. I think the fact that it was 85 degrees that day in Alabama and she was wearing shorts and a t-shirt made it less fun and more itchy. But we had a great time watching her (and throwing her in).
