Happy Fall!

Sharing is caring!

It’s officially the first day of Fall! You know what that means! Endless PSLs, pumpkin painting, Trick or Treating, cozy cardigans, boots, and apple picking galore! I may live in Florida, but you better believe I’ll be jacking up that A/C and throwing on some fall attire while drinking my pumpkin coffee!

This is the first year I’ve actually written out a Fall Bucket List and I plan on sticking to it! We even tackled a few of the items already!

Family Friendly Fall Bucket List

This past weekend I snagged a couple pumpkins and some Crayola washable paints during my grocery run for the kids to paint. I set up their little table outside and let them go to town! It was Gabriel’s first time with paints, but he did great dipping the brush into the paint and swiping at the pumpkin. Most of it ended up on his face and hair though!

Isabella loves anything to do with crafts, so she was a big fan of this project. Her eyes lit up when she saw her punkin. Surprisingly, she barely got a drop of paint on herself! When I said that we needed to get a bath afterwards, she looked at me like “Why? I’m not messy.” Very true little girl, but your brother is a hot mess!

Recently I experimented with some Gerber 3rd Foods Lil’ Bits that we had leftover in the cabinet and decided to use them in a baking recipe. It turned out really well and the kids loved it!

Sweet Potato Apple Cinnamon Muffins and Loaf Cake

This recipe can also be used in a loaf pan.

I started decorating a little bit throughout the house. The Target Dollar Spot got me hard recently! 😉

Creating a Simple wooden fall sign to accent decor has never been easier or more inexpensive.

For the wooden Thankful sign, I picked up all the supplies in the Target Dollar spot, adhesive felt flower (2 pk), pumpkin/acorn wooden stickers, glitter THANKFUL stickers, and arranged them how I wanted. Cute little DIY!

Probably the best part about Fall for me is the change in wardrobe. However, since we live in Florida now, we have an extended summer and won’t get to switch our clothes out for a couple more months. Our Noxx beanies are really lightweight, so I have been putting them on Gabriel and pretending its fall 😉

Great idea for a pumpkin activity with toddlers! I'm going to buy some mini pumpkins and paint so my two little ones can try this activity. I've been trying to think of Fall crafts they'd like to do. This is perfect!! And I didn't know Target One Spot had Fall decorations! I need to check it out!

This is the best (and only but still the best) Fall Bucket List I have ever seen! We have done the pumpkin painting with Isabella but I never thought about letting Gio give it a shot. I may have to do that now... lol

I love all your photos... you have a gorgeous family!! xo
