Fall and Winter To Do List

Since yesterday was the first official day of fall... I figured I would wrap up my Spring and Summer To Do List...
 
I did about half of what I had planned to do this summer... then ended up replacing the other half with different events. I never missed out on doing something on my list to sit at home and do nothing... there was always a BBQ, a party, a concert, a cabin trip, a girls night out or some other event to take its place.  So, I am not disappointed that I was only able to cross off half of my list.
