I'm coming for you, Fall Bucket List.

Wheat and I went full-throttle fall mode this weekend and it was glorious.


First of all, I forced convinced him to watch one of my favorite shows, The Walking Dead. In less than a week, we've watched the first two seasons and will be starting the third soon. I'm so glad it's finally back!

On Saturday, we went to Russell Farms for some festive fun.

Yes, America. He's always that cute.

We pet some smelly farm animals and I talked myself out of buying a pygmy goat on the spot.

His name was Lonnie the Llama.

I mean, come on.

We conquered a 10-acre corn maze in about 20 minutes. I don't know if this had more to do with our expert navigation skills, our hunger, or our unsurpassed fear of bees. Seriously, I ran through portions of the maze to avoid them.

Clearly the bees hadn't found us yet...

We took a bumpy hayride to the most sincere pumpkin patch in the world to pick out pumpkins. Much to my delight, we actually pulled one of our pumpkins directly off the vine.

Chuck Taylors and Chuck Brown.


We perused the country store, ate hot dogs, drank apple cider, and listened to bluegrass versions of classic Disney songs. Best of all, we played on the seesaw.

Terrifying onlookers by how hard I was laughing.

After we exhausted all options at the farm (with the exception of the bouncy castle, which apparently we're "too big" for), we went to the mall and saw Gravity in 3D.

Hater blockers.

On Sunday, I went home for Sarah's bridal shower. It was so great to spend some much-needed time with my Central Perk housemates and finally meet Katie's little guy, Elias.

It's nothing short of a miracle I didn't take him with me.


Now, I'm moping around because the weekend is over and trying to decide how to carve my pumpkin. Any suggestions? What did you do this weekend?

  7. WHEATERS. You two in that pumpkin patch are killing me with cuteness. Have you carved the pumpkins yet? I vote that you do some kind of stencil thing from the interwebs. Or, design your own Evgeni Malkin pumpkin. Or, just do your same pumpkin face. There are so many options!

    I saw Gravity and I really liked it. I should have gone and seen it in 3D though. Actually, I may go and see it again in 3D just because I feel like that's how that movie should be seen. How banging is Sandra Bullock though?! Did you get things settled with the Cinci hockey people? Will you still be coming home soon?
