Fall To Do List

You really can't beat Buffalo, New York for Fall. I'm not a huge fan of fall. I get depressed about the end of summer... And the need to put a snow brush in my car. But one of the things I really want to do for Maddie is teach her to enjoy all the little occasions throughout life, including the passage of seasons.

So I'm putting together a Fall To Do List to remind myself of the things I do like about the season.

Fall To Do List:

Bake pumpkin-y things

Make thankful turkeys

Go to Beckers

Have a fondue dinner night

Make doughnuts

Go on a hay ride

Collect leaves

Decorate for fall

Go on a walk in Forest Lawn Cemetery

Have a football day with a football dinner

Carve a pumpkin

Roast pumpkin seeds

Go on a walk to the Japanese Gardens

Collect pinecones and acorns

Scuff through leaves and take a leaf shower

Watch the Wizard of Oz on Halloween

Dress up for Halloween

Watch Charlie Brown

Smash acorns!

Drink a Pumpkin Spice Latte

Go to Howl OWeen at the Zoo

Now if I can just get Maddie to ditch her summer dresses. This child is a regular Zooey Deschanel. Embrace pants, my child!
