Happy Fall Y'all!!




It's been getting to look a lot like fall.... and I cannot be more excited!! I don't know about y'all but Fall is one my absolute favorite seasons! There are just so many things to do, food and drinks to eat and holidays to celebrate! I am a bit of an overachiever so I created a bucket list of things I want to do this fall... it's a bit extensive but I am so excited to start checking things off. I thought I'd share my top 25 things to do in the fall!

The Blue Ridge Mountains... practically in my backyard. Living in the Foothills has some definite perks!

1. drive up to the mountains and go for a hike
2. go to a pumpkin patch
3. have a bonfire and enjoy some s'mores
4. go on a hayride (maybe even jump in the haystack this year!)
5. APPLE PICKING (LOVE THIS!!)
6. bake apple pie (DUH! see above!)
7. make caramel apples (AGAIN, obvious right??)
8. decorate some pumpkins (carve, paint, glitter-fy!)
9. drink lots of fancy fall tasting coffee drinks
10. go on a picnic.... under the fall trees, of course!
11. bake some fall cookies (the decorating is the best part!)
12. jump in a leaf pile (bring the camera!)
13. CORN MAZE, PUHLEASE! (it's corn-mazing! haha how corny! whoops did it again!)
14. eat pumpkin pie, ham, sweet potato casserole, mashed potatoes, green bean casserole... etc etc until I pop
15. enjoy some Thanksgiving leftovers **ESPECIALLY THE POST HOLIDAY TURKEY SAMMIES... yum! I drool!
16. take some photos in the fall amazingness
17. wear some adorable fall outfits with my amazing new boots! oh, how I love a good pair of boots!
18. watch lots of Clemson football (and see them beat Carolina in November!)
19. try a new fall trend... especially the cute nail polishes
20. decorate the house in fall decor
21. make a fall craft, or 2 or 3 or....
22. have the best fall break yet ever!!!!
23. go to Denver with the boyfriend to see where we might be living in a few years (CRAZY!!)
24. FALL CRAWL! South Carolina's biggest bar crawl and a day of absolute fun! Plus it falls on one of my best friends, Monique's, birthday this year! Even better!
and last but not least....
25. drink lots and lots of spiced apple cider (maybe even drink the hard stuff this year!)

That's it y'all!! Is there anything I'm forgetting?? There's so many things I want to must do@ I can already  cross of make a fall craft (get excited for a craft tutorial post next week!), drink fall tasting coffee and go on a hike off the list! Now to get cracking on all the rest.... Happy Fall Y'all!




P.S. Daniel and I went on a hike two weeks ago and it was insanity! What was supposed to be a very easy and simple 1 hour, mile and a half hike turned into a 6 hour, 15 mile hike ending with both of us being dehydrated and exhausted! Luckily we eventually found a random dirt road in the middle of the woods and managed to make it back to the main road and our car! I get tired just remembering it!  Next time, time I'm making like a boy scout and be PREPARED. I am definitely going to bring a survival kit, compass, map, extra food and PLENTY of water! Word to the wise, never, ever, venture off trail. Even if you are an experienced hiker!
