31 Fun Fall Activities! (Fall Bucket List)

31 Fun Fall Activities / Fall Bucket List

I'm sure by now you know, I adore fall. The beginning of a new school year and new beginnings. Getting back into a routine - and soccer. The turning of the leaves, the warm sunny days still, with crisp autumn evenings. Salted caramel mocha's and pumpkin spice lattes. And that's just the beginning. Halloween, Thanksgiving - it's all fall.

Every year there are certain things I just have to do for fall, traditions for me and my kiddos. I thought I'd share some with you, and encourage you to make your own list of fun fall activities. 


1. Go to a Pumpkin Patch

  3. I'm an Oregon girl transplanted into the Florida pan handle (our first year here) and I'm starting to fear that they don't actually have Fall in this strange state. . .no mountains, not enough coffee shops, and no fall. . .so jealous.
