And the Livin' Is Easy...

Dear Friends,

According to my pretty new planner, Monday was the first official day of autumn. As you may or may not know, autumn is my favorite season of them all!!! I love the way it smells like the first day of school, bonfires, Halloween, Vienna, and piles of leaves all rolled into one, outside. I love that I get to wear all of my favorite jackets and cowboy boots. I love that the colors start to change from greens to all of the unexpecteds. In honor of this, the greatest of all seasons, I think I will make yet another list of things that I NEED to do this fall.

In no order:

1. Go on a hayride and through a corn maze, hopefully one that ends with a big slide!

2. Learn to bake amazing pies from scratch. (Any suggestions would be much appreciated.)

3. Go to a pumpkin patch and carve a jack-o-lantern.

4. Dress up and do something wonderful for Halloween.

5. Go apple picking and make carmel apples.

6. Go to a haunted house and watch scary movies.

7. Huddle around a bonfire with best friends.

8. Go for a hike at Babler and see all of the trees changing colors.

9. Take a train to Chicago for a long weekend of friends and music and Christmas light admiring. (To be fair, I already know that I am doing this.)

10. Roll down Art Hill.

Go listen to Langhorne Slim,
Owl

PS- Please note our award winning jack-o-lanterns in this picture and the fact that my brother is still obsessed with Batman.
