My October Bucket List; 20 Things I Plan to do This October
Happy October everyone! This is my favorite time of year so I decided to put together and share my October bucket list; 20 things I plan to do this October with all of you. First of all, the fact that I actually get to enjoy the fall season (in its entirety) may be my favorite part. When I lived in Florida, it was hot all year round, so I never got to experience the "fall" everyone imagines. The crisp air, crazy obsession with pumpkin everything -lol, color change of the leaves and overall excitement for the holidays to begin are additional things that make this season so special!
I have compiled a list of 20 things I plan to do this October and encourage you to take a peek and possibly join me in doing the same. Most of the list is universal yet I have added some D.C. specific events at the bottom for those of you who are in the area! October is here, so join in on the fun and let this October be your BEST one yet!
