    It's the most wonderful time of the year.  No, not Christmas, it's officially autumn! Yay! This is the best season in my opinion and here is an Autumn Bucket List of all the things you have to do before the season is out.

    A tree lined path in fall with a circular graphic overlay saying Autumn Bucket List

    Some people love the crisp snowy days and dark nights of winter, others love the blooming flowers of spring, and some love the hot long nights of summer. Not me. I love the crispy leaves, snuggly clothes, pumpkins, changing colour of trees, the smell of bonfire night and comfort food of autumn. They are just some of the things that make it my favourite time of the year.

    Avery was born in the middle of autumn last year, so it was a blur of late pregnancy and having a newborn! That meant I didn't get to do all my favourite autumn things. Because of that, and because it's Avery's first proper autumn, we are going to make the most of it and these are all of the things you just have to do in autumn.

    Autumn Bucket List

    ~ Admire the changing colour of trees, all those golds, oranges and reds ~

    A leaf covered path winding through trees in fall

    ~ Decorate the house for autumn ~

    ~ Make autumn leaf art ~

    ~ Make hot apple cider ~

    Christmas glasses containing Mulled Hot Apple Juice . An apple, cracker and red towel are in the background

    ~ Dress up for Halloween ~

    ~ Have a lazy, cosy Sunday afternoon ~

    ~ Go pumpkin picking ~

    A large pumpkin in a field

    ~ Carve a pumpkin ~

    ~ Toast pumpkin seeds ~

    ~ Go for a long walk on some crispy leaves ~

    A tree lined path with fallen leaves covering the path

    ~ Watch a scary film ~

    ~ Buy some autumn scented candles ~

    ~ Bake an apple pie ~

    An apple pie with a slice removed, which is on a plate with a ball of ice cream.

    ~ Make lots of squash recipes ~

    ~ Walk through a corn maze ~

    ~ Take a photo amongst the autumn leaves ~

    ~ Watch Hocus Pocus ~

    ~ Go shopping for cosy autumn clothes ~

    ~ Make a big pot of chilli ~

    A bowl of chilli con carne and rice with tortilla chips sticking out of the chilli

    ~ Cook lots of soup ~

    A bowl of yellow coloured soup next to a checkered towel and some buttered bread.

    ~ Go to a bonfire ~

    ~ Go to Spooky World ~

    ~ Make Pumpkin Spiced Lattes ~

    ~ Make pumpkin cupcakes ~

    ~ Roadtrip ~

    I will update at the end of autumn how we got on with completing the list. It's going to be a fun autumn if we manage to do all of these.

    What would be on your autumn bucket list? Have you managed to tick any of these lot off yet in the past week?

    Take a look at my Summer Bucket List and Before 40 Bucket List.

      I love this! I will have to join you on this bucket list...except for the scary movie. I hate scary movies, lol! I wish I could do all of these right now but we have not received any nice autumn weather, unfortunately.

      This looks prety similar to our bucket list. It's more than a week in and I still haven't picked out a pumkin yet! We are looking forward to all things fall in Oregon though!

      It looks like you are going to have a fun packed autumn there Dannii. We are going pumpkin picking next week and it will be my daughters first time (I have a nearly 1 year old too)

      We don't really get much autumn here in California, but this post has me craving hot Chocolate in front of an open fire.
