Hi I'm Lindsay and on most days you can find me blogging about anything and everything over on my little slice of the internet {From Nanny to Family}.
When Kelly asked me to be apart of her "fall favorites" guest post I was super excited! I love fall and any opportunity I get to talk about all my fall loves I am all over it. Then I got to thinking- what is it really that I love most about fall? I excuse to wear a scarf? The need for a yummy hot Starbucks drink? Leggings and boots? Colder weather recipes? Fall scented candles? Jacket weather? Leaves changing? Baking with freshly picked apples? Halloween? The list could go on and on . . .
After much thought the one thing I kept coming back to was my family. Without my family none of that stuff would be fun or exciting. None of it would matter. The more I thought about it the more I realized fall is such a milestone marker in my book.
At the begining of every fall O&G start a new school year. We have family photos taken and we have many fall traditions to complete.
Every fall I get the opportunity to look through old photos and remember just where we were at that exact moment a year ago- it is priceless. So if I had to choose a fall favorite with my family, I don't think I would be able to- I love it all.
I love getting our yearly family photos taken.

I love taking the girls to our favorite fall places for fun and cute photo opportunities {markets, apple picking, pumpkin patches etc.}

I love going apple picking. Riding the hay ride to get a taste of apple goodness before going to pick bags full.

I love Halloween and all things that come with decorating, dressing up, and beggars night.

I can't choose just one- I love it all! I love how fall makes me feel. I love all the memories we create. I love new fall clothes, even though after looking back at photos I continue to rock favorites that are at least 5 years old. I love how fall is a segway to all the great holidays to come- Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Years. I love every single second that I get to spend during the fall making precious childhood memories for O&G.
Those are my "fall favorites" all rolled up into one with a side of Chi Latte and a fresh J. Crew scarf.

ReplyDeleteWhat a great post! Fall is my fav too!
ReplyDeleteFall is my favorite time of year as well! Nothing beats being able to wrap up with a scarf and drink warm drinks while spending time with my family.
