I cannot believe it is already almost autumn! The only things I can think about right now are apple cider, changing colors, pumpkins and boots. I am just sooo excited. Besides just pumpkin spice lattes and yoga pants, their are tons of other things to look forward to in the coming weeks:
1. Carving pumpkins: Their is no age limit when it comes to spending an afternoon in the crisp air finding the perfect jack-o-lantern.
2. Making homemade pumpkin seeds: Their is nothing better than taking the seeds you scooped out of your freshly picked pumpkin and baking them with salt for crunchy delicious treat.
3. Haunted houses/Mazes: Dressing up in your warmest sweaters and heading out to a corn maze or old rickety house to spend your money on getting scared is a novelty of fall.
4. Boots: Is their anything more to be said? High heeled boots, riding boots, ankle boots? The options are endless!
5. Bonfires: Find all your friends, break out the s'mores makings and cuddle up with some blankets around a cozy fire to tell stories and maybe drink some hot chocolate.
6. Make homemade apple cider: nothing beats apple cider, especially when its made from scratch. Here is a awesome recipe to use.
7. Hike to see all the fall colors: Getting to spend your whole day in the brisk autumn air and see the leaves change from green to purple, orange and yellow sounds like the most amazing way to experience fall.
8. Ride your bike.
9. Decorate your dorm room, house, or apartment: A little festivity never hurt anyone and its always fun to spend some extra time making your space look and smell like all the wonderful parts of autumn.
10. Layer up: Fashion in the colder months is so much more creative and adorable than the warmer because of the endless possibilities. Layering necklaces, jackets, cardigans and scarves leaves endless possibilities
11. Participate in your towns thanksgiving 5k: Races like the Turkey Trot are fun, easy going races that give an excuse to have fun with friends while exercising in preparation for stuffing ourselves later in the day. A bonus is that most of the time the profits raised go towards a good cause too.
12. Spend some time reflecting on what you are grateful for this season. Not many people have the privilege to carve pumpkins or go to a haunted maze this fall.
13. Go on a hayride with your hubby or best friends.
14. Find some fall dorm inspiration on Pinterest so that your hall will be talk of the entire campus.
15. Make your own Halloween costumes. Inside of buying one, take advantage of the cold weather and snuggle up inside to create your own masterpiece.
16. Go to a football game or two and get caught up in the excitement of being a part of something.
17. Light a nice candle: Yankee and Bath and Body Works candles are the bomb and are well worth the money.
18. Take a warm bath: Fill a tub with some Epsom salts, put on some music, and relaaaxxx...
19. Bake sugar cookies in the shapes of pumpkins, leaves, and ghosts: Bring out your inner child again and enjoy the process of baking, decorating, and devouring sweet treats.
20. Have a movie marathon: Halloweentown and Hocus Pocus are classics.
Check out this amazing fall bucket list that I cannot wait to try out!
I hope everyone has an amazing autumn season and takes advantage of all the festivities it has to offer! Thanks, xoxo
