Fall Bucket List

This was shared by Buddy the Elf on Facebook the other day and I stole it because I loved it!

I'm pretty sure I did a majority of these items this weekend.  OK, wait, I lied...we did two of these things, but there's still plenty of time to do the rest!

We started our Saturday morning with some yummy Pumpkin Spiced Chocolate Chip Pancakes, and homemade copycat Starbucks Caramel Apple Spice!
Find the recipe for Pumpkin Spiced Pancakes here! Adding the chocolate chips was our touch, but feel free to steel the thought and taste the goodness.  These babies were the PERFECT start to our first October Saturday!

My sweet hubby and I met three years ago (almost to the day) at a pumpkin patch for our very first date.  So now we visit the same pumpkin patch every year to relive those special moments.  I cannot even believe when we made the same trip last year we weren't even engaged yet, and NOW, we're married!  I'm amazed at how mere months can change our lives.  Last year we went on our annual pumpkin patch date, and two days later he popped the question.  This year we went as husband and wife talking about someday bringing a lil punkin of our own to the pumpkin patch.  Don't get excited folks, that day is still a couple years away!  I REPEAT...COOL YOUR JETS!

It was an unusual weekend though because it was insanely hot for October.  It was over 80 degrees at the pumpkin patch and we were sweatin', but we got a couple cute shots for your viewing pleasure.

ENJOY!
On the hayride to the pumpkin patch.  Corey swiped his first kiss from me on this sweet ride three years ago.
Lugging our haul!
Trunk full o' pumpkins!
Our pumpkin loot!  Can't wait to carve and decorate these babies!

Hopefully we'll make it to an apple orchard soon!  And now that we have our chiminea there are plenty of bonfires and s'more nights to be had.  

What's on your Fall Bucket List?  What things have you checked off so far?
