Fall Family Activities I Am Looking Forward To

  • Share
  • Tweet

Fall is my absolute favorite time to be outside enjoying the weather and the spectacular views. While my kids might be older now, there are still a few fall family activities I hope we will find time to do together this year. Thanks to prAna and Mambo Sprouts for sponsoring this post. All opinions are my own.

Corn Mazes

Some of my most favorite memories are from our adventures in various Corn Mazes over the years. We have gotten so lost and had lots of laughs. They don’t open for a few more weeks but I hope we can still find time to navigate our way through together.

Halloween Decorating

Halloween has always been an event at our house. Even before we had kids, I always looked forward to decorating for Halloween. I love to get dressed up, give out candy and check out all of the costumes. Plus, someone had to taste test it all to make sure it was “safe” for the kids to eat right? I used to pride myself on having the best decorated house on the street. My kids may have outgrown Halloween shenanigans but I am still all in!

Of course, it’s important to be comfortable yet fashionable while joining in on all the fun fall family activities. prAna designs clothing that I can feel good about wearing out on an adventure or out to lunch with friends. The Moto mid rise leggings (pictured) can be dressed up with tall boots or worn on a hike through the corn maze. The plum shade of this Deedra sweater is the perfect piece to layer over a tank. I know I will be reaching for it often this fall.

Zip lining and Obstacle courses

The last few years, our family has loved going zip lining and tackling some obstacle courses together. Last fall, we had a whole day of zip lining through the most beautiful tree lines out in the Virginia countryside. I was completely terrified at first but came out feeling like a pro. Family bonding at it’s best!

Today’s fashionable fitness blogger wants to feel like they are giving back in some way.

    We don’t really celebrate Halloween too much where I live since there arent many kids, but I still give out candy to the 20-30 kids that we get every year, lol. I always love seeing their cute costumes, especially on the little kids!

    I’m looking forward to pumpkin spice lattes and apple picking this Fall, you know, once the weather actually feels like Fall, haha

    • Deborah Brooks says

      09/27/2017 at 7:09 am

    I really like that sweater. Loving the color. When my kids were younger we use to go to a fall festival, but now they aren’t interested in going! My mom went zip lining a few months ago. I don’t think I could do it

    • Deborah Brooks says

      09/27/2017 at 5:29 pm

      It is so much fun you basically just sit on the seat and go!

  7. Kimberly Hatting says

    09/27/2017 at 12:35 pm

    Gosh, it’s been awhile since we’ve done much for family activities in the fall. We did a lot of pumpkin patches and hay rack rides when the kids were younger. The Halloween costumes were always an absolute must…and I still enjoy dressing up!

    • Deborah Brooks says

      09/27/2017 at 5:32 pm

      I knew you were a dress up for Halloween type of girl!

  8. Marina @ Happy Healing says

    I used to LOVE obstacle courses as a kid and I can’t wait to set up some fun ones for my future kids 🙂

    • Deborah Brooks says

      09/27/2017 at 5:33 pm

      I was not much into it as a kid but I sure love them now

    I really enjoy going to Haunted Houses in the fall but my fiance hates it! I also love all the fall decorations. You look great in the new Prana wear!

    • Deborah Brooks says

      09/27/2017 at 5:33 pm

      The haunted houses always scare me still! Loving the sweater now I just need some cooler temps

  12. Rachel says

    09/27/2017 at 5:40 pm

    I’ve never done a corn maze! Oh wait, I ran through one once. But it was small. But other than that I never have! I might have to change that this year.

    • Deborah Brooks says

      09/27/2017 at 7:39 pm

    • Deborah Brooks says

      09/28/2017 at 11:30 am

      That will be a nice break for sure! It’s amazing how much time all of the kids sports can take up

  19. Toni says

    09/28/2017 at 7:55 pm

    These are all great activities. There is no real fall here in Central Florida, just heat. Love the sweater!

    • Deborah Brooks says

    Halloween decorating is at the top of our list! Specially pumpkin carving 🙂 But also a lot of playing in the park with the dog. It was too hot for her during the summer and we have to make up for the time lost.

    • Deborah Brooks says

      10/12/2017 at 6:27 am

      Hope you all enjoy your family Halloween decorating too!
