Do you have a favorite fall activity? There's so much I love about this time of year - apple picking, corn mazes, visiting the pumpkin patch, not to mention the crisp fall air! And I always spend October binge reading spooky books 👻🎃🍁

The photo after we did a silly “shove the whole cone in the mouths” photo 🤪😂

A silly selfie of us, though I have cropped out his face. I have on sunglasses, a light grey and pink shirt, and I am holding a white and pink swirled cone, with some of the ice cream all over my mouth. You can see his beard and black and red shirt, while he holds a chocolate cone.

Oh no, I’m sorry I hope it goes on sale there as well! Or perhaps the library, if that’s a possibility?

We walked into town, stopped at the library to grab a few movies (also they have a big book sale coming up soon, yay). Then into the little game store for some booster packs. And finally I treated us to an ice cream cone before our walk back. Chocolate peanut butter for him, Tiger's Blood for me.
