20 Things to do this fall with your family

September 20, 2016 Mckenzie Hettman

Fall is basically here and we are so ready to take advantage of cooler weather, pumpkin everything, and family adventures. Fall has always been my favorite season and I love it even more now that I have little kids. From pumpkin patches to back yard bonfires, there are so many ways to celebrate as a family. I made a list of our favorite kid-approved traditions below. Let us know if there's anything you would add to the list!

  1. Visit a pumpkin patch
  2. Carve or paint pumpkins
  3. Have a Halloween movie night and drink hot cocoa 
  4. Go to a football game 
  5. Roast pumpkin seeds
  6. Apple picking
  7. Take pictures of the kids playing in the leaves
  8. Corn maze 
  9. Make a bonfire and eat s'mores
  10. Bake pies
  11. Make a fall wreath for the front door
  12. Check out fall books from the library and read them before bed
  13. Donate new clothes, blankets, and food to people in need
  14. Invite friends over and make chili and cornbread 
  15. Make apple cider
  16. Visit a local farmers market 
  17. Have the kids make fall hand and foot print "art"
  18. Make autumn trail mix
  19. Collect pine cones and make pine cone crafts for decorating the house
  20. Go on a nature walk/scavenger hunt- teach the kids about the changing of the seasons.

Pulled pork verde stuffed avocados😍😋
Try this garlic artichoke dip if you’re hosting/attended a Super Bowl party🏈 My recipe uses Greek yogurt instead of mayonnaise for a healthy twist👍 P.S This recipe has only received extremely positive feedback and hundreds of people have made it (thanks Pinterest)🙃 #superbowl

I wasn’t planning on sharing my #bestnine but my heart melted a little when I saw that it was all pictures of my family! So sweet that my family was “liked” more than all the food pics. ❤️❤️
Follow your heart.
I remember when the office was still running and EVERYONE said they had a love like Jim and Pam. From the beginning Brian and I always said we were more like Michael & Holly.. Several years later and a couple beet farmers later, I think we're identifying more with Dwight & Angela😂 #bearsbeetsbattlestargalactica
Do you have a food you eat several times a week, every week? For us, it's this simple arugula salad😍 All you need is a heaping bowl of arugula (my favorite green), shaved Parmesan, olive oil, fresh lemon juice, cracked pepper, and course sea salt. #simplefancy
My garden is growing like crazy which means salad season isn't over yet❤️🥗

Huckleberry scones😋 #summereats
This weekend was absolutely blissful🖤 For Huck's first camping trip, we went to the mountain and set up camp nestled in a field of wild Huckleberries. I mean how cute is that?! It was the coolest thing to have thousands of wild berries surrounding us and the view of Mount Adams was stunning!
I'm dreaming of fall after the last few days of cooler weather and even some rain! Definitely looking forward to the food more than anything😊 This delicata squash and kale salad with maple vinaigrette is the reason fall foods are so pretty🍁
