Fall has routinely been a great time for me to re-evaluate my year and set new goals. Somehow the beginning of September feels like a fresh start. This year though, I want to be sure my goals aren’t all business and numbers. I also want to have some fun! Here is a list of 25 really fun goals to make for this fall – pick a couple to check off yourself and follow the links for good inspiration to keep the goal. Ensure that your fall is filled with fun and merriment, not just laundry and work.
Just-for-Fun Fall Goals
1. go on a fall picnic | 2. re-read great novel | 3. try pumpkin recipes | 4. make homemade doughnuts | 5. frame photos | 6. drive-in movie | 7. chili night | 8. clean out closets | 9. halloween “Boo reaction” | 10. spruce up your yard | 11. paint pumpkins | 12. host a movie marathon | 13. yard sale | 14. scenic fall drive | 15. kids halloween craft | 16. volunteer | 17. afternoon “thrifting crawl” | 18. homemade candycorn | 19. decorate with foliage | 20. fall walk or bicycle ride | 21. have bonfire | 22. food drive | 23. make “scary” pumpkins | 24. make mulled cider | 25. take a fall-themed staycation

August 21, 2013 at 12:03 pmWell, I just started re-reading The Fault in Our Stars and this weekend I am going thrift shopping with a friend for some unique bits and bobs for fashion week in NZ! So I’m doing well so far! Hope you have a good one!

August 21, 2013 at 2:28 pmHave a fall picnic is my #1 too! My friends and I just had an amazing summer picnic (http://rootandvineblog.com/summer-evening-picnic/ ) at a vineyard. I can’t wait to have another one in the fall. Thanks for sharing!

August 21, 2013 at 2:53 pmI love this idea. I’m going to get set making my own this afternoon, although it’ll be a bit less ambitious! Expecting twins in the next month and moving house in the next few, this will be a good reminder to take time to simply enjoy things and not get caught up in just getting things done.

Fall To-Do List: Making time for the important things - Lemon Thistle
October 14, 2016 at 9:47 am[…] Earlier this week, one of my daily-reads, A Subtle Revelry, posted just what I needed: fun goals for fall. It was such a reminder that even getting into the busy time of year (or for me a new time of life) can be hectic- you can always make time for fun. I decided I must make a list of my own. I used a few of her awesome ideas (how can you say no to a scenic fall drive?) but made sure that my list was manageable with two babes and very, very little free time. You can check out her list here. […]
