Fall Fun

I can’t wrap my head around the fact that Halloween is only two weeks away. Fall always seems to fly by faster than any other season. Our weeknights are filled with gymnastics, soccer, homework, cooking, reading, baths and the bedtime routine that never ends. So getting in all that Fall fun on the weekends is a must! This weekend we took the girls to a local pumpkin patch, we had apple cider donuts & they picked out a few pumpkins we could carve. I live for these moments with our family!!

I’ve held onto a copy of an old Martha Stewart Living magazine since before Brandon & I were even married with these super fun carrot nose jack-o-lanterns on the cover. I’ve been wanting to make them for so long and we finally did it, they are my absolute favorite!! Trying to keep them going for as long as we can until Marvin gets ahold of them! Do dogs eat carrots? Also, do you go for pumpkins with the longest stems? Because I most certainly do!

Hope you are all having the most magical Fall season, friends! Don’t let it pass you by. XO

    I have to ask–do you groom your dog or take him somewhere? We have a golden doodle and I’m struggling to find a good length for her! Any tips would be appreciated!
