Hi ya guys, welcome back! Sorry about not posting yesterday, Colton and I were in Austin for ACL all weekend and had originally planned on coming home on Sunday, but ended up driving back early Monday morning.
How was yall’s weekend though? And your Monday?! I kind of mention it yesterday on Instagram, but ya’ll, this weather has put me in THE BEST mood. I’m just giddy from ear to ear. Like it’s actually kind of starting to feel like fall!
Love, Love, Love it!
In honor of the weather finally cooling down, I wanted to share a few fun things that I am looking forward to doing this fall.
(1) Going to the pumpkin patch
When I was in college, every year, Colton, my roommates and all of our dogs, would make our way to the pumpkin patch. We would get dressed up in all of our comfiest sweaters and make quite the evening out of it! It became one of my favorite traditions.

(2) Making all of my favorite pumpkin recipes!
I have been working on a few that I cannot wait to share with you all!
(3) Switching to Early Morning Saturday Runs
Because it is so hot during the summer in Houston, I usually go to spin on Saturdays, as opposed to running! Although now that the temperatures are dropping, I definitely think it is time to start running more! Speaking of which, if you’re thinking about running in a Turkey Trot this November and have never ran a 5k before, this is the perfect time to start training!

(4) Make a stew in the crock pot.
I love to do this on Sunday’s so that we can have it for the whole week! It’s warm and comforting and I swear it gets better every day.
(5) Finally put out all of my fall home decor.
I love dressing the apartment for the season. My favorite way to do this is by filling our home with fall candles and white pumpkins. They make our house feel so inviting and warm!

(6) Wrap up in a scarf and head to the farmers market.
There is nothing I love more than grabbing a cup of coffee and heading to the farmers market on the weekends. It’s relaxing, I get to bring Bentley and I love picking up fresh produce to have for the week!

(7) Spend one full weekend in Waco.
I know this may seem weird, but Waco in the fall, is my absolute favorite! Last time we went up, I wasn’t able to do a lot of my favorite things. So I would really like to go back and spend a full weekend there. Maybe even put together a Waco Travel Guide?! We’ll see.
(8) Clean Out Closet / Put Up Summer Clothes
Every season, I put up clothing from the previous season and store them under my bed until it is time to bring them out again. This is my favorite storage container for it.
(9) Spend a whole Sunday watching football with Colton
Oddly enough, one of my favorite things about fall is just hanging out with Colton at our home and watching football all day. We open the doors, have music playing, and make snacks to munch on throughout the day. He brings out multiple TVs and we just kind of relax all day. I love it!
(10) Curl up and watch Halloween movies / drinking cider all night.
If you aren’t planning on watching Hocus Pocus at least once this season, then we can’t be friends….. Kidding! Lol but in all realness, who doesn’t love Hocus Pocus? When looking for movies, I always run to ABC Family or… “Freeform?” for their 13 Days of Halloween schedule. You can find it here!
