What we've done:

2) Enjoy a Hay Ride (West Farm Corn Maze)
3) Pumpking Painting Contest (instead of carving). The Hubster won.
4) Have a picnic (Charleston)
5) Create a fall craft ( Spooky house and mini-monster craft kit from Target)
6) Watch a Family Friendly Scary Movie (The Little Vampire and Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters)
What's left to do:
1) Take family photos
2) Get away for the weekend
3) Trick or Treat
4) Pick out costumes
5) Donate food to a local shelter
6) Bake a fall dessert
Being intentional about what we do during this busy fall season has helped us to slow down and embrace the moments that count. It's like setting a challenge to remember to capture moments. When the demands of school, work, and extracurricular activities pull on our limbs, it takes bravery to shout 'Stop!' and do what matters most. For us that's slowing down and being with each other.
