FALL IS HERE! IT’S HERE!
For those of you who don’t live in the 113 degree, burning hot southern parts of California… this may not be as exciting to you as it is to me, but it is exciting either way! I have kept two tiny kids indoors and out of the hot sun while my husband has been busy working for weeks now and I am so excited to finally be able to escape for date nights with him and do all the romantic fall-things together.
Need some fall date ideas?! Here are some of our favorites:
-
Go apple picking & bake an apple pie together afterwards
-
Visit a pumpkin patch, do some pumpkin carving & bake the pumpkin seeds
-
Is it even fall if you don’t get a Pumpkin Spice Latte or Hazelnut Macchiato?
-
Open the windows to let in the cool air, light a fire, make some homemade popcorn, and watch Hocus Pocus or Ghostbusters
-
Find local cider and wine tasting events
