Even though Summer is my favorite season, Fall is a close second. There are so many wonderful things about this season that make my heart sing. From scarves to Halloween to snuggling by the fire, this season is all about getting cozy and having fun!
1. Scarves & Boots
Great wardrobe staples for the Fall! During this time of the year I’m usually rocking skinny jeans, a pair of boots, a sweater, and one of the 25 scarves I own. Comfy and cozy all season long.
2. Carving Pumpkins
Every year, Kyle and I dedicate a whole night to pumpkin carving. We put on our favorite scary movies, sip wine, and carve the night away. I can spend hours just carving one pumpkin, I love it!
3. Fall Decorating!
Fall is just another excuse to bust out more decorations. I get pretty nuts for decorating, especially during the holidays. My house will be covered with leaves, pinecones, and soon…Halloween decorations!
4. Leaves Changing Colors
Being an on location photographer, I have to be extremely picky on what locations I choose to shoot at. Fall is the perfect time for shooting because wherever you go, there are always leaves changing colors to add so much beauty to your backgrounds. Plus it’s lovely to take a walk along the Fox River Trail and see all the pretty leaves changing – it’s so calming.
5. Snuggling
This Wisconsin weather can be unpredictable and in Fall it can sometimes reach freezing temperatures. To me, this is the perfect excuse to start a fire in the fireplace and curl up with the cats on the couch. Just pop in a good movie and I’m set for the night.
6. Drinking Hot Coffee & Pumpkin Spiced Chai
I drink hot coffee year round but there is something so wonderful about sipping hot coffee with the windows open and the crisp Autumn air filling up your home. And though I’m not huge fan of pumpkin spice, Pumpkin Spiced Chai is delicious.
7. Football
Football season is in full swing and we are now starting to see exactly where each team is at. Anything is possible during this time. If you are coming over to my house on a Sunday, expect a to see some game on the television. And hopefully the Packers will be kicking some serious butt!
8. My birthday!
My birthday is in November and I love love LOVE celebrating birthdays! A day dedicated to celebrating that you arrived to this world. I don’t care that I’m getting older, I’m going to love every single birthday. It represents another year I’ve contributed and enjoyed this great world of ours. And this year, my birthday is on a Saturday – party!
9. Halloween!
My second favorite holiday (Christmas – Favorite! Fourth of July – 3rd Favorite!) I go all out for Halloween – decorations, costumes, and scary movies! Last year alone I dressed up in four different costumes (my favorite being Garth from Wayne’s World) for four separate costume events. I’m already brainstorming on what I should be this year. Hmm…
10. New Episodes of Favorite Shows
I’m not much of a television person but there are a few shows I’m obsessed with. During the Fall I’m all about New Girl and The Walking Dead. And don’t get me started on The Walking Dead! It’s probably one of my favorite shows of all time and I’ve been anxiously waiting since FEBRUARY for the new season.
