Fall Bucket List — Lesley W Graham

I feel like the last decade just sort of happened to me. Ever feel like that? I showed up, I tried to do fun things, I checked boxes off at holidays but as far as being as intentional as I wanted to be, I’m not sure I had the capacity!! Normal when raising babies! So, as the girls are getting a little bit older, my heart aches on missing out of anything with them. SO, even though it’s only August, I’m putting together a little fall bucket list for fun things to do together during my favorite season of the year as well as some fun things for Sam and me to do together!

Fall break trip - We didn’t do a summer trip but were planning on going somewhere for fall break which is in September. I have the sweetest lady, Victoria, who is helping me plan something for fall break. I get very overwhelmed with planning, it’s not something I’m naturally great at so I’m so grateful for her tips and wisdom!!
Apple Festival - I have always wanted to go apple picking with the girls!!! Putting together a fun weekend of just good old fashioned fun and I can’t wait. Gimme allll the apple fritters.
Drink a latte outside on a cool morning.
Sit by the fire on our back porch and just talk!
A dinner party with friends in our back yard. We have not entertained much AT ALL and I would love to have a dreamy, candle lit dinner with friends al fresco.
Carve a pumpkin! We had the most fun carving party at our neighbor’s house last year complete with butter beer!
Go camping! We spent as much on camping as we would have on a weekend trip so we need to definitely use the gear again. Am I ready for this? YES! Here is our packing list.
Day trip to Clayton to have lunch and visit Wander North Ga!
A sunday drive to see the leaves changing.
Several different day hikes!
See Sam’s work in Zombie Land 2. Can’t wait!!
Rewatch Stranger Things.
Make crockpot potpourri. Nothing smells better!
Make wassail. Love packing thermoses of this and sitting outside. Yum!
