I have mixed feelings about Fall. After the hot summer I'm always happy for the cool crisp nights and busting out my boots and scarves. But...fall precedes the winter. The winter is cold. And long. And this is going to sound a little weird, but when I was pregnant with Mason I had morning sickness throughout my first trimester. Which happened to be in the fall. So for many years after the fall scents and even colors were dead to me. Just a whiff of a pumpkin was enough to gah...
But the memories of that have faded, and cinnamon pumpkin finally smells good again, so I decided we would enjoy this fall! So we made the Maciejewski Fall Bucket List-all of the fall fun we didn't want to miss out on. First up-Pick Apples!
For years we have heard friends rave about a nearby apple orchard, so the last weekend of September we decided to check it out for ourselves-and it definitely didn't disappoint!
The orchard is about an hour away, but since the leaves were in full color we didn't mind. :) It was a BEAUTIFUL drive! It was also unseasonably warm-as in 85 degrees! It was to be our last day in shorts for the year though; the next day I think it was 50.

Our kids love a corn maze. They were very impressed with this corn-it was seriously tall.
