Fall Vibes

Every leaf speaks bliss to me, fluttering from the autumn tree.-Emily Bronte

Basking in the golden glow of fall vibes today, I’m feeling the urge to jump in the leaves and soak up the sun before autumn is done. How about you?

Fall is a magical season of change that provides the opportunity for many annual traditions. Here are a few of our family’s favorites you might enjoy if you haven’t already. There’s still plenty of time to embrace autumn’s blessings before all of the trees are bare and the snow is falling instead of the leaves. Let’s go!

Fall Traditions:

Jump in the leaves!
Fall festivals-Bayfield Apple Festival, Oktoberfest in La Crosse, Cedarburg, or New Glarus.
