Three Things : Three Giveaways

We have our annual Pumpkin Patch caravan and then back to the house to bake cookies and cupcakes. Two nights before Halloween, everyone is at our house for pumpkin carving, cupcakes and tacos. Simple, yet something my kids and Godchildren look forward to.
Oh, I almost forgot, I pull my Saint Mary's College sweatshirt out. It is so worn and weathered, but well loved!

Pick pumpkins. Pick apples. Pick some more apples. Pick some more pumpkins. Fry pumpkin blossoms. Use kale in everything I can. First chili of the season - always a big one.
I LOVE fall!!

Ahhh...Fall!! It's my absolute favorite season! It's the color of the leaves, the crisp mornings and warm afternoons, the cider and hot chocolate, the pumpkins and scarecrows, the finishing up of harvest, and the leading into Thanksgiving and Christmas. It reminds me of family and friends and just generally leaves me feeling all warm and fuzzy! We celebrate by having a BIG photo shoot of our family in the park with the leaves and beautiful colors! They are always my favorite pictures.

We go to lots of cross country meets since my hubby coaches! LOL! There is always a trip to a pumpkin patch and my favorite...Starbuck's caramel apple cider and chai tea!

We definitely celebrate the season with pumpkin pickin' and apple pickin'!
And the bonus is that the traditions provide great photo ops too.

Fall, or autumn as we call it, happens in March/April for us, and may even be rainy. School vacations means we get to travel & we often visit our favourite game reserve at this time of the year. The balmy weather & lazy days, are best finished off with a BBQ, some local wine, while watching a sunset over the hippo-filled lake...

From October 1 to January 10 is my favorite time of year. We welcome fall with open windows and soup. We take a few last hikes in the mountains. We winterize the lawn. Then we decorate with ghosties and scarecrows and decorate Halloween cookies. We pick pumpkins. We make more soup. And homemade bread. We plan Thanksgiving meals. Food, comfort and family. Fall.

I love fall! The colors this time of year are so amazing. I love decorating my house with all the colors and I love the cool crisp air. I always take my girls to the pumpkin patch for a hayride and to pick out their pumpkin!

We celebrate fall with bringing the sweaters out of storage, pumpkin carving and the family Barn Dance at church. I hope you're enjoying your fall!

I grew up in Oregon, but now live in Florida, so Fall for me is a little different now. It is all about the sweaters though. Even though the temperature isn't too cold, I love that I can wear a sweater.

We've already begun! Pumpkin picking - some of the best photos of the year! There's nothing like the smell of autumn, the taste of apple cider, and the feeling of togetherness that comes along with this time of year. I am so thankful for my life! xoxo

Thanks for the giveaways, Ali!
We celebrate fall in so many ways. One of our newest traditions is to spend an hour or so in Target after the Halloween decorations are out. We push the buttons, see the fun and scary things!
It also means baking and cooking. Yummy. I love the smell of our house in the fall. We go to pumpkin patches, hayrides and once a week we go on scavenger hunts that I make up. Last week, it was a fall hunt at a metropark. This week, it's a Halloween hunt walking around the neighborhood.
Blessings to you!

well this year, being almost 9 months pregnant, I tend to be celebrating the season by attending birth classes and sleeping, but one of my favorite things in fall is going for long bundled up autumn walks with a thermos of hot chocolate or steamed milk in tote... mmmm... and then of course, love the slight touch or red on the cheeks when you finally return inside and curl up in a blanket, so nice, LOVE fall and winter.
Happy Tuesday!

I LOVE the fall! It's may favorite time of year. I'm 25 and I went pumpkin picking for the first time in my life this year.
I grew up in New England but had never been.
Jumping in leave piles with three of my nephews is also a new favorite fall actifity of mine.
Thanks,
Kim

I get ready for fall with glittered pumpkins, sweet potato balls, yummy hot drinks, bonfires, and fall festivals!
Nothing beats fall!

I love it all, baking, apple cider, walks in the woods, playing in the leaves and getting ready for the long winter season.

i like going for walks around our town looking at yards decorated for fall and crunching leaves under my feet. my girlfriend and i went on a road trip yesterday and it was the perfect fall day! i love looking at the beautiful trees. thanks for the great giveaways. julie
ps: i don't digital scrapbook so if i would be blessed enough to win could i get one of the paper kits (if that's not being too picky!)

I celebrate the Fall season by bundling up and going on walks with my husband, taking pictures of the changing leaves, lighting yummy candles, and eating lentil soup.

I dont have many fall traditions but I make sure to get candy for the trick or treaters (or just me) and for sure have to have some carmel apple cider from starbucks. Also gotta have a carmel covered apple! yum!
