Fall Favorites With Printable

Welcome September!  As we welcome the new month, we look forward to welcoming a new season…autumn.

Every store you go into these days is decked out for fall.  From mums to candy corn to a variety of foods available with pumpkin flavor, the stores are preparing us for this approaching season.

Although I am trying to hold onto these last days of summer, I do feel fall creeping in.  The days are getting shorter and there was a slight chill in the air this evening…just enough that we needed sweatshirts.  Yes, fall is on it’s way.

I was chatting with my girl, Elisabeth, about her favorite things about fall and she responded by making a list.  A written list, numbered from 1 to 20.

Yes, she is her mother’s daughter…a list maker.

I thought I would share that list with you.  I’ve elaborated a bit…here and there.  But, I did make a fun, festive printable for you of these fall favorites.  I hope you enjoy!

These are Elisabeth’s  top 20 fall favorites:

1. Watching fall TV premiers.  There are a few television shows that we love to watch as a family.  We live for The Voice, The Goldbergs, and our favorite, Modern Family.
2. Decorating the house.  Colorful flowers, pumpkins, pine cones, and heavier textures help transform our home for fall.
3. Fall Scents…Macintosh, spiced pumpkin, autumn wreath…My girl loves Yankee Candle.
4. Going to a corn maze.  Running, getting a little lost, giggling, and finding your way out…so much fun!
5. Apple picking.
6. Pumpkin picking.
7. Enjoying a hay ride.  When you are apple picking and pumpkin picking, you also enjoy a hay ride!
8. Baking…anything with apples or pumpkin.  Now, that you have picked apples and pumpkins, you need to bake.  Here is our favorite recipe for pumpkin bars .
9. Going to a Country Fair/Agricultural Fair.  We live in New England, so it doesn’t get better than the Big E!
10. Watching football.   High school, college, or professional, we enjoy watching this game.
11. Playing and watching fall sports…field hockey, soccer, cross country, volleyball…it’s fun to participate and cheer on our local athletes!
12. Fall Foliage.  Living in New England, the scenery with the beautifully colored leaves is just gorgeous.
13. Jumping in piles of leaves
14. Hot Apple Cider.
15. Carving pumpkins and toasting the seeds.
16. Choosing a Halloween costume.
17. Haunted Hayrides
18. Bonfires
19. Enjoying s’mores around a fire.
20. Thanksgiving dinner.

I’ve included a free, fun printable of some of these fall favorites for you to enjoy.
