October/November Bucket List

05
Oct
2010
  • Pumpkin Patch, Corn Maze, Hayride – Will be doing this on Saturday :)
  • Apple picking (also on Saturday if time permits)
  • Bake an apple pie from scratch with said apples
  • Make caramel apples with said apples
  • ABC’s 13 Nights of Halloween on TV
  • Rake leaves and jump in them … pretend my babies are still babies.  They still LOVE leaves.
  • Dust off  my camera and take pictures of the beautiful leaves and scenery
  • Go for a Sunday drive through the Country with my family
  • Take evening walks in the cool weather
  • Open the windows in the house as many days as possible.  I love the crisp air this time of year.
  • Get hay bails, pumpkins, mums, etc.,  and make a fall display for my front yard
  • Paint pumpkins
  • Carve pumpkins
  • Take my family to the Zoo and to Grant’s Farm.  Perfect time of the year.
  • Bub! Home! On! Leave! All! Next! Week!
  • Go to the Winery with my Brother next week while he’s home on leave.
  • Have Chili night at my house (again next week while Bub is home).   Invite the rents over and make an evening out of it.
  • Bake oatmeal and peanut butter cookies
  • Knit a baby blanket for my (soon to be born) Niece.  I’ve started this (kinda) but I’m not very good at it yet lol.
  • Get a group of friends together and go to a Haunted House.  (Group is necessary because I’m a chicken and need lots of people who will make sure I get out alive! lol.)
  • Have friends over for a bonfire.
  • Make smores.
  • Get excited over hoodies, cute socks and woobie blankets!
  • Potluck with my Grandma, Aunts, Uncles and Cousins next weekend so everyone will get a chance to spend time with my Brother while he’s home.
  • Finish watching past episodes of  TrueBlood  on DVD.  There are 5 discs for each season, so 15 (discs) in all.  I’ve got 6 done and 3 more on their way.  Of course the last 5 of them (Season 3) haven’t been released yet … but I’m hoping they are … SOON.
  • Finish reading the TrueBlood Series (on Book 4 now).
  • Start reading the Harry Potter series.  I watched her on Oprah yesterday.  So I’m finally going to cave and start reading.  Can’t believe I never did in the past.
  • Buy myself a Sock Monkey Hat.
  • Change all my Profile pictures into a picture of ME wearing said hat!
  • Drink warm apple cider – complete with cinnamon sticks
  • Make hot chocolate with way too many marshmellows
  • Sit in the hot tub, late at night, with my Husband
  • Spend a cold rainy day at home, in my PJs, reading and taking naps.  No TV.
  • Make roasted pumpkin seeds.
  • Celebrate my Daughter’s 18th Birthday.
  • Plan my Thanksgiving Day dinner recipes EARLY this year.
  • Send out paper invitations to my Family for Thanksgiving dinner. (Cheesy, but fun!)
  • Make Christmas shopping idea lists for my family (EARLY this year!)
  • My Sister’s Baby shower in November.
  • Baby Shopping (and Christmas shopping)  in St. Louis with my Sister and Step-Mom.
  • Start outfit shopping for Sissy’s Senior Pictures.
  • Hand out candy on Halloween
  • Spend time with my favorite 4 year old (AJ) Trick-or-Treating :)
  • Get new candles for the house with Fall scents.  (Cinnamon, apples etc.)
  • Go ATV riding/camping at least once more this year.
  • Pictures! Pictures! Pictures!  Take more pictures in the next 2 months than I have the rest of the year combined!

P.S.  I might … just MIGHT … LOVE this time of year :)
