Generally, whenever something becomes overly prevalent in the populace I'm turned off by it completely. That's just the hipster hidden inside me, I guess. That something might be a fashion trend, celebrity, book, movie, or catchphrase. "Bucket List" definitely falls into that last something category. However, I do appreciate the sentiment. So I decided to apply the sentiment (but not the word!) to this fall season. I love autumn so much and it always flies by too quickly! So I thought it might be smart to make a priority list and thereby better use our time.
I also just love making lists. So much.
Confession Time: I originally printed this out in cute fonts and colors with the intention of displaying it proudly on the fridge, but...I lost it. Oops.
So here it is with a little mid-term progress report!
Happy-Fun-Fall-Time-To-Do-List
Visit a pumpkin patch OR vineyard
This is currently penciled in my datebook. Ste Genevieve, here we come!
Go on a picnic
Is it cheating if I combine this with our vineyard trip?
Make an autumn banner
Well, I did half of it but then decided I do not like the design; back to the drawing board!
Make s’mores
Done! Complete with a fire pit and friends.
Front Porch Halloween Tradition
14 days to go!
Tour Anheuser Busch
I have no clue when we are going to be able to do this.
Spend as much time as possible outside, be it sitting or walking
This was Matthew's suggestion, and we have indeed been outside many times.
Try one new fall-time recipe each week
So far, so good! I've tried Pumpkin Chocolate Cookies, Butternut Squash Stuffed Pasta, Butternut Squash Chili, Honey Apple Pork Tenderloin (I also threw in 4 chopped sweet potatoes), and up next are Pumpkin Oat Muffins.
What do you hope to do this fall? How can you get it from To-Do to Done?!
