Fall Bucket List

Happy Fall Y'all!

It's officially October, which means we are in full candy-corn-eating swing! Gemma is so into my over the top festive moods and halloween clothes! It's really the cutest thing ever and I really truly in the deepest part of my heart hope that she's a holiday fanatic like me. Ha! Her Dad would flip. That guy's middle name is scrooge. Although he does love me very much, so he tolerates me when I do crazy things... like start playing/singing Christmas music on October 1st. Anyways, I'm so excited about the holidays this year because Gemma is really getting it this time around! 

Here's our Fall Bucket List!

I figured I'd be smart and leave off the four and half bags of candy corn bought and eaten in September!

1. Buy Halloween PJ's! (Also, already done in September. Oops!)

2. Bake a Pumpkin Pie for Papa

3. Read Room on The Broom twice every night. I try to tell her no but she calls it Room On The StickBrooms and I can't say no to that! You couldn't either and you know it.

4. Two words. PUMPKIN. PATCH. Two more words. HOT. CHOCOLATE.

5. Have dinner outside again and again and again! Preferably underneath twinkly lights and in the middle of a load of pumpkins.

5. Carve all the pumpkins from the pumpkin patch!

6. Harry Potter Marathon! Probably after Gemma's in bed because You Know Who still scares her a little bit. Totally justified but still... Bummer.

7. Fall Family Pictures. Yeah, I'll get right on that losing ten pounds business... right after this next piece of pie.

8. Trick Or Treating. Duh.

9. Make Halloween Chocolate Bark with a gallon of sprinkles, caramel popcorn, pretzels and candy bars. Here's last year's bark!

10. Fall Festival Hay Rides & Corn Maze all at a local Christmas Tree Farm

11. Make some of these Fall Crafts! Especially the ones that teach Thankfulness

12. S'mores as many times as possible

12. Thanksgiving Vacation in the Smoky Mountains! We're all really excited about this one!

13. Our Annual Fall Camping Trip with great friends!

14. Hunting! Biggest thing on this list for Brandon and I. Hopefully we'll stock the freezer for the coming year. Wish us luck! Gemma & Brandon got started this weekend with some squirrels!

15. Get ready for Winter and make our Christmas Lists!

Somewhere in all of the hustle and bustle I plan to remind myself how incredibly blessed we are to be together and to have such love for one another. I hope you can all say the same!

Happy Fall!
XOXO
