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.
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.

Brilliant suggestions! I love seeing the leaves change colour, and can't say no to a cosy Sunday afternoon!

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.

I just copied your list and am bookmarking. It's the perfect way to celebrate fall!

Those are some beautiful Fall leaves pictures.

What a fun read! I want to do everything on your bucket list too this Autumn, but I want you to make the pumpkin spiced lattes for me. :)
Jenni LeBaron
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!
Clara
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)
Sandra
We don't really get much autumn here in California, but this post has me craving hot Chocolate in front of an open fire.
