The Fall Fun List: Join In!

September 16, 2020 By Kari Leave a Comment

Here’s a super-chill Fall Fun List I created to help you really embrace the season! Recipes, activities, and moments to share. You can work your way through the list with us! Find a FREE Fall Fun printable near the bottom of this post.

Fall Fun List-1

It’s never too early to start prepping for Halloween! For the record, I’m a huge fan of Halloween. I love getting dressed up, handing out candy, making the crafts, etc.  How are we working it this year, through the pandemic? I’ve heard a few different ideas – individual candy bags in the bucket, leaving the bucket at the end of the driveway with a table near the house, cancelling trick-or-treating and hosting a small gathering at your house…we’re still undecided. What about you?

Prepping for Halloween is one of the items on this Fall Fun List. Keep scrolling for the full deal!

Fall Fun List-2Our Fall Fun List

#1. Have a Fall Picnic

Pack up your basket and a bunch of cozy blankets, head to a park, and enjoy the beautiful scenery. If you’re local to Edmonton, be sure to check out True North Picnic, which offers charming picnic packages already set up for you!

#2. Enjoy a Backyard Fire

…multiple times. There’s nothing quite like snuggling up around a fire in the fall. You could even whip some of these Biscuit Smores from The Kitchen Magpie.

#3. Porch Drop Fall Baking

Whip up some goodies, wrap them up all cute, and make a friend’s day! I always make these Pumpkin Squares every autumn, and – in case you missed it – here’s the recipe to my mom’s Old Farmhouse Honey Cookies. They may be the best cookies ever!

#4. Prep Halloween Costumes

We’ve established a tradition of a family theme with our costumes. Remember our Toy Story Halloween Costumes from last year? 🙂

#5: Jump in a Massive Pile of Leaves

This is one of the moments that will take you right back to your childhood! Quick parenting tip: wear your camping clothes. In past, the clothes we’ve worn while jumping has been so intertwined with leaves we can’t actually wear the pieces anymore. 

#6. Stroll with a Yummy Drink

Walks in the fall are some of the most magical of the year. Toss your Pumpkin Spiced Latte or apple cider in a to-go mug, bundle up, and take it all in!

#7. Sip a Fall-ish Cocktail

My Apple A Day drink is pretty delicious! 🙂 It’s based around honey-distilled gin from Greenwood Distillers (out of Sundre) and apple cider. Watch me whip it up, and get the recipe here. 

Apple A Day Cocktail#8. Treat Yourself To a New Sweater

I try to only invest in one new sweater per season, because it can so easily get out-of-hand. I LOVE The Erinn Cardigan from Shop The Skinny. If you’re trying to watch your spending, you can easily revive some of your older sweaters. I use this fabric shaver on my clothes. It has the ability to make pieces look new again!

Erinn Cardigan#9. Read a Nature Book as a Family

There are so many nature books we love, but ‘What Bee Will You Bee?’ by Alberta author Bee. L Hall is SO amazing! The next in the series comes out soon. Order here.

Even when Wyatt was littler and would sometimes get rejected at the park when he asked to play, it would shatter my heart. 😫

I was bullied in high school pretty bad. My aunt stepped in one time and regulated some mean girls. Shared the (now) hilarious story on my Stories.❤❤

Wyatt's cute tee is from @deuxpardeuxkids, I'm wearing my @smashtess sweetheart roper and that heart print out is @justinema's free printable Kindness Challenge! (Looks like I have some catching up to do)! 🤣

I know what each person needs varies, but for me, getting alone time to walk the dogs has been key in managing my anxiety and stress (especially this past year).

I believe investing in mental health initiatives is more important than ever. I’m so happy to be partnering with @atbfinancial for a really meaningful campaign called #ATBUp.

Each weekday from March 1-12, one more simple, FUN social challenge will be presented. When you complete and share on social using #ATBUp, @atbfinancial will donate $1 to @mentalhealthab!

I’ll be heading up two challenges—and including Moses 🐶 and Monroe 🐶. I hope you’ll join me! 😊💛
