With Fall around the corner, we all know what that means. Social media has definitely seen activity with the many, many posts and memes shared on an hourly basis, especially about pumpkin spice everything. Others might focus on the countdown to Halloween.
Regardless if you cannot wait or you are dreading it, there is plenty of things to look forward to. You might already have some as traditions or you might want to try something new this year. Here are twelve things that we can look forward to this year.
1. Cooler Weather
It is not too hot and not too cold, but rather a mediator between the two. Wardrobes open up to warmer colors and sweaters. Opportunities open up to the perfect photo op.
2. Raking Leaves
For some raking leaves might feel like a chore, but adding a bit of fun to it can make all the difference. Piling it together to jump into them is a classic thing to do, but have you ever tried making leaf dummies? All you need is some old clothes, markers, raked leaves, and a plastic bag.
3. Drinking Hot Chocolate
With the cooler weather comes hotter drinks. Apple cider and hot chocolate will always make the list.
4. Going To Apple Orchards
With the focus on pumpkin spice, apples tend to be forgotten. Apple pie, apple cider, apple cinnamon, and of course, candy apples.
5. Finding The Biggest Pumpkin
It is all about how much of the insides you can dig out before you began the process of carving.
6. Hay Rides
These rides are fun, despite the beginning of one's allergies acting up.
7. Baking
With Fall comes festive treats. Rice Krispies and cookies to family specialties.
8. Movie Marathon
Movies! You can never go wrong with a movie marathon. The cooler weather makes it comfortable to just stay in the house and relax while watching a wide range of movies to pick from, especially in October. Regardless if you want to spend the day with Michael or three sister witches, it is a day well spent.
9. Bonfires
Bonfires has several meanings: warmth, evening, fun, and s'mores.
10. Football
Physically playing or just watching, football season is session. It all brings out team pride and competitiveness.
11. Games
Boredness will not be an easy task. There is quite a bit that can be done, both inside and outside. Tailgating and playing corn hole. Embracing personal creativity through arts and crafts. Then you can always pass the time with board games and puzzles.
12. Two Major Holidays
Fall hosts two major holidays: Halloween and Thanksgiving. Each with its own festivities. From decorations and food to traditions. Shopping and styling comes with tasks of being in the holiday spirit.
