I find myself here in this 90 degree weather longing for Fall to show it's face, although that probably wont happen for another month or so. I love when it actually "cools" down here. The temperatures stay in the 70's to low 80's but there is NO humidity, NO mugginess and the best breeze ever! It makes going outside so much more enjoyable.
Here are a few things we'll be doing this Fall...
Dining al fresco - I know this is what most of you do during the Summer, but we don't. It's so hot or it's usually raining in the evenings - cue the mosquitoes! I can't wait to be able to eat outside and enjoy the weather. Cleanup is such a breeze when you eat outside and then kids usually play on the playset when they're done eating, leaving me and hubby with a drink in hand talking and watching them play.
Go to The Pumpkin Patch - There's a local farmer's market here that has a Fall festival that is so fun to go to. There are hay rides, apple everything, pumpkins galore and places set up for picture taking. It's pretty fun! The kids are already taking about going. I'd also love to find out if there are any corn mazes down here to take the kids to.

My outdoor space isn't this pretty but lets pretend, ok?

Bake Fall Treats - aka all things pumpkin! I find this to be a win-win: the house smells white it's baking, the kids have fun, and we get to have yummy desserts for a few days!
Football Parties - while I don't watch football (my husband does and loves it - I don't understand it) it sure is fun to have people over for the game. I love eating all of the junk food, drinking beers and hanging out. And if we do happen to go to a game, tailgating is a must :)
What are you looking forward to most this Fall?
What a fabulous list, lady. Cheers to eating al fresco!
Such a great list! I'm excited to finally be able to wear my scarves. haha and of course, I love anything pumpkin.
Awesome list gurlie! And YES to dining al fresco and for the fall festivals. One of the biggest reasons I moved here was to enjoy outdoor living while it's freezing and gray back up north <3

This is a great list! We are going pumpkin picking this weekend and have already had a few football parties. They're some of my favorite activities for Fall!

I know all too well how weird it is to go to the pumpkin patch in the heat - but the bright side is football always makes it feel like Fall! xo, Biana -BlovedBoston
I'm so jealous that your dining al fresco season is just beginning - it's my favorite! That pumpkin bread looks amazing, too!
YAY! So excited for fall, cooler temps, less humidity and sun! I'm so over all the rain we've been getting. And yes to getting to dine alfresco again! Jealous of your pumpkin patch, I need to find a good one around here this year! <3, Pamela Sequins & Sea Breezes
I did a fall list today too! But al fresco-- so not on my list :-)
I wish we could switch weather, we're supposed to be in the 50's already this weekend and that is waaaaay too cold too fast! lol. I love fall baking and tailgating treats too!
My fall list looks very similar :)
Yes to all of this! I did a similar list today. :) We love eating outside, and you are so right that the best eating outside season is just beginning down here!
Great list!! I'm with you on football too!! Haha. I wish that we could dine al fresco year-round here too!! :-)
Love all of these!! Dining al fresco will be so nice for you guys to finally enjoy some cooler weather. We're hoping to get a few more outdoor meals in too.
That's a fantastic list. I love Fall, every single thing about it :)
i love this list!! it soo so hot here but im still excited about everything fall too :)

All of these sound great! We love eating out on our screen porch in the spring and fall - can't wait to start doing that soon! I also love eating everything apple and cider! Have a great weekend.
Great list, girl! Love the dining outdoors scenery! Champagne&Suburbsxo,
