Falling for fall

Seriously, what's not to love?

A picture recap of some of my favorite things from the last month (plus tyler's birthday):

tyler is an excellent uncle because he can build super tall lego buildings.

pumpkins are heavy?
super sweet corn maze-- it was alice in wonderland-themed and went through tunnels, over bridges, and even through a round room with a set of and little bottle that says "drink me"

and a picture in the dark :D

Nic and his lovely girlfriend Lindsey. You can just look at Nic's expression and see why I included this photo.

So, there are LOTS of fun things coming up (and hopefully lots more photos!) but one of the main things I am excited about is Tyler and I's Christmas Date Day (yes, with caps!) with our friends Craig and Angela. It was actually Angela's idea-- we were talking about how we miss out on Christmas in the city living all the way out here and she came up with the idea for an epic date day in Seattle on the weekend before Christmas! I am SO EXCITED!

Possible plans include:

• Christmas shopping downtown (including FAO Schwartz)
• Adult Christmas drinks at happy hour somewhere
• Ice skating (maybe?)
• Christmas-y (somehow haha) dinner!
• Possibly the Nutcracker or this Christmas boat trip thinger where you get to listen to carols and float around the sound :D
• Driving around looking at Christmas lights with hot chocolate!

Anyways, nothing is set in stone, but I would LOVE to hear some of your favorite Christmas-y things to do in the city if any of you have suggestions-- we haven't settled on a for-sure plan, but I feel like there are a ton of possibilities we are probably missing on our list here! :)
