My Favorite Fall Things

Fall is here! Fall is here! You have no idea how excited I am that it's finally fall! Last fall was amazing! We found out we were expecting our little boy last year and made the announcement on Halloween. We made so many awesome memories and I just can't wait to make some new ones with my family.

Because I'm so excited about fall, I decided to dedicate this post to all of my favorite fall things.

Fall Colors - I love when the leaves are changing colors. I've been noticing that the leaves are changing colors and it always brings a smile to my face.

Crockpot Meals - Cooking tends to be so much easier during fall and winter. There are so many delicious crockpot recipes. My favorite food to make are BBQ and Jelly crockpot meatballs.

Carving Pumpkins - This is a family tradition. Ever since we had our oldest son, we have always carved a pumpkin.

Watching Scary Movies - I love watching scary movies. They are even better during fall. I've watched Dawn of the Dead so many times and it still scares me every single time.

Reading - I've noticed that I tend to read a lot more during fall. I tend to read horror, mystery, and supernatural stories. I recommend The Graveyard Book by Neil Gaiman, anything by Edgar Allan Poe, and Things We Lost In The Fire by Mariana Enriquez.

Long Walks - During summer, it's way too hot to be outside for a long time and it's way too cold during winter. Going for walks during spring is a bit better, but then I have to deal with pollen. Going for long walks during fall is the best! The weather is cooler, the colors are changing, and it's 100x easier going for walks during this time of year with my entire family.

Cooler Weather - I am so over the heat. Summer has never been my favorite season and I am so glad that we are starting to have cooler weather. I am all for wearing comfy sweaters and leggings.

Taking My Kids Trick or Treating - I love taking my kids to trick or treat. It's one of our family traditions to trick or treat and then give out candy. My boys love seeing everyone's costumes and they love helping me pass out candy.

Fall Festivals - I love going to fall festivals. We always go to at least two fall festivals and it's always so much fun. Last year was a bit too cold, but we still enjoyed ourselves. Hopefully, it won't be too cold or too hot this year.

Apples - Oh apples. It's a fall staple. I don't really have a favorite kind of apple, but don't they just taste better in the fall?

Candles - I love candles, but rarely buy them. However, I tend to light at least one candle during fall. Bath and Body Works has so many great candles this year and I think I may buy one.

Halloween - If you know me then you know that my favorite holiday is Halloween. I love everything about Halloween. It's such a fun holiday and I always look forward to it every year.
