It is officially the best month! I know everyone says that, but I totally liked October before it was cool, probably because my birthday is in October and I always had some kind of halloween-themed birthday party. But I love Halloween. I LOVE dressing up. I love the fall leaves. Seriously, it's an obsession. I've driven up the canyon 4 times already. I love fall smells. I love drinking tea when it gets cold out. I love football season. I love the cold, crisp air in the morning and perfect 60-70 degree days. I LOVE IT ALL!!!!
Here are some of my favorite "fall items" to have/see/do:
Bath and Body Works fall candles. Some of the best smells in the world!!! My favorites are "Sweater Weather" and "Leaves". Plus, they were just on sale so of course I stocked up.
If you have a Costco membership, BUY THIS. If you don't, I will buy it for you. Krusteaz pumpkin spice mix. I make waffles with it and they are so good! I hate pumpkin pie, but love everything else pumpkin flavored. You will not regret this.
Last year, and this year: Nebo Loop and Guardsman Pass. These two drives are some of the most beautiful places I've been in my life. Like I said, I have an obsession with fall foliage. There are not many sights more beautiful to me than these trees. We probably only have a week left with the fall colors so go take a drive down the canyon!
Okay funny story about this movie. My two friends and I were these witches for Halloween one year when we were little and I had to be Mary, because I had brown hair. Pretty sure I hated life 'cause she's the fat one. Haha. Anyways. This movie obviously is amazing and I watch it multiple times every year. If you want to have a Hocus Pocus party, I am always down.
Luckily we have a few pumpkin patches right by our house. This pumpkin pyramid is right around the corner from us, called Wilkerson Farm. The top picture is from The Red Barn down in Santaquin. So much fun! They have a hay ride, slides, a corn maze, and the pumpkin patch.
If you know me, you know that I love tea. I pretty much drink it daily, even in the summer. But in the fall and winter it means so much more! These two flavors of Yogi tea are amazing and taste like fall. If you're a tea-drinker, go get some of this!
Fall decorations!!! This is only a snippet of what is in my house. That beautiful wreath was made by my good friend Cilka (her etsy shop is found here). You can literally tell her to make anything you want and it will turn out perfect. I have pumpkins, leaves, signs, candles, towels---fall/Halloween everything.
October is the best month and I am already living it up. We only have a short time with fall in Utah, but while it lasts, everything is amazing!
