All Things Fall
“I’m so glad I live in a world where there are Octobers.”
Over here in South Florida, it’s currently a blistering 87 degrees and the humidity smacks you in the face the second you walk out the front door, IT’S FINE. For those of you that are feeling all cozy in your oversized sweater, I’M JEALOUS! I’ve put together a little Fall wrap up that will help you get in the spirit, regardless of the temperature.
With two weeks left until Halloween, you’ve got plenty of time to curl up for a themed movie night. My top spook-tacular picks are below:
