On the eve of the first day of Fall, I asked the girls to help me put together our Fall bucket list! We love doing this for every change of season, it’s so fun to have things to look forward to and to cross them off as we go! Can you guess which things the girls wrote?!

Last year I was out of evaporated milk and subbed in heavy cream for my pumpkin pie. Legit the best pie ever and I normally don’t even like pumpkin pie!! Dooooo it!!!
Go to hello kitty pumpkin patch at Tanaka Farms, apple picking, corn maze, carve pumpkins, decorate for fall/Halloween, make a crisp apple pie, our family tradition of Halloween movie night, hike to the pumpkin that looks like jack the skeleton, visit the house where American horror story was filmed, go to one of my fave thrift spots called the brick house, bake Halloween pillsbury cookies (the best)!
Still have a lot more to add!
I LOVE the change of seasons! Our fall favorites include visiting a local farm/pumpkin patch and driving to the mountains to see the changing leaves and scoping out a scenic spot for a fall picnic.
I think you will love Weston Red Barn farms! We’ve already went once this Fall but I think we need to go one more time bc it does not disappoint! Downtown Weston is adorable, too! We also love Griegers Family Orchard. We haven’t been there in the Fall, we went for peach picking this summer and loved it. But I’m sure it gorgeous and fun in the Fall too!
I took my kids to Weston’s Red Barn Farm every year! It’s one of the best kids’ places in the area. Equally important in our fall routine was Schaake’s Pumpkin patch just east of Lawrence off K-10. I still manage to get them there and take a pic by the “How tall are you this year” cutout! They are 22 and 19! ? It’s a magical place, as well.
