How to Enjoy a More Intentional Holiday Season
October is here, and for my family, that means the beginning of the holiday season (Halloween is a big deal). In an effort to live more intentionally and make more family memories, I've begun putting together seasonal bucket lists. These are lists of experiences that are rather unique to that particular season.
If you follow me on social media, you may have last seen my Summer Bucket List (it involved a lot of ice cream :-)
For this holiday season, I've combined both the fall experiences and the holidays experiences into one bucket list. I will add to the list as ideas come up. I know that we won't have every experience on our wishlist checked off, and that's ok.
So, the following is my family's Holidays Bucket List:
visit a pumpkin patch
carve pumpkins
make and eat pies
go apple-picking
go Trick-or-Treating with the kids
drink hot apple cider
drink hot chocolate (with marshmallows)
wear a fun scarf or sweater
enjoy the fall colors
watch holiday movies
go ice skating
trim the Xmas tree
send holiday cards to friends and family
listen to Xmas songs 24/7
build a snowman (if possible)
