Ohhh, October. the temperature starts to change, the season of holidays begins, people start to decorate their homes. Nothing is better than watching scary movies, getting to pull out the sweaters and boots that have been sitting in your closet since last year. Ohhh, and pumpkin everything, am I right?
It's the start of the holiday season!!!
With October it takes us into the most festive time of the year, November equals Thanksgiving, December equals Christmas. A time full of family and friends and good food. And all the boxes of decorations we get to bring down from the attic. All the amazing flavored foods and seasonal candies.
Bath and Body Works, that's all I'm gonna say.
I mean there are the Halloween, Fall and Christmas lines that are amazing. I mean if your gonna say that you don't go out and spend a decent amount of money here at this time of the year your lying to yourself. Now not everyone loves this store but the scented candles they have are so wonderful. They fill your home with just warm and inviting scents.
All of the movies.
ABC Family's 31 Nights of Halloween, and their 25 Days of Christmas. (I refuse to call them freeform.) Not to mention there is the Hallmark channel, and they are bringing up a whole new line up for this Christmas. There are so many good movies for this time of year, like "The Nightmare Before Christmas," "Elf," "Hocus Pocus," "Home Alone," and the list goes on forever. Grab a cozy blanket, some snacks and you got yourself the best night ever.
Pumpkins, Cookies, Boots, Scarves, Candy canes, Gingerbread Houses, Trick or Treating.
Making cookies, carving pumpkins, getting to wear boots and scarves. Well getting to wear boots and scarves in Florida isn't till like December, but October lets us know that it won't be hot all day every day for much longer. Carving pumpkins, while messy is so much fun because trying to get a really good design can be kind of tricky. Making a gingerbread house is a mission in it of itself because trying to get the walls to stay up and the roof not to slide off is such a struggle, but the end results and the memories are worth all the struggling. Trick or treating no matter how old you are is fun because free candy is the best candy, and getting to dress up is part of the fun too.
