So maybe I jumped the gun on last weeks post… but I can finally say HAPPY FALL!!! This weeks pins feature a few of my favorite things to do this time of year, and a little motivation to get you through the week!


  
Apple picking has got to be on everyone’s list of things to do this season. 
Bundle up in a sweater and your   favorite pair of boots and head out to the orchard with some friends for the afternoon. Treworgy Orchards is by far my favorite apple orchard in the area. Pick some apples, pick some pumpkins, and feed the baby goats. Click on this pin for more info!

What girl doesn’t love sparkles, sequins, and lace?! Once you’ve got your pumpkins, give one of these no-
carve pumpkin decorating ideas a try. Not only are they decorative and different, but they will last much longer than a carved pumpkin!  

Put down your pencil and pick up your polish! 
Take a break from studying and pamper yourself with a manicure. Pinterest is full of great tutorials and ideas for your nails. With the cooler weather approaching, caring for your nails is even more important. Click here for some of Anh’s great tips on keeping your nails healthy!

Although the temperature is decreasing, there’s still time to get outside and exercise.   
Studies prove that exercising releases endorphins which reduces stress and boosts your mood. Grab a friend and take a walk  around campus or go for a ride on the bike path. If you’re looking for a gorgeous walk during the fall season, check out the Orono Bog Boardwalk.  

Last, but certainly not least, a little words of wisdom:


Have a fabulous week and enjoy every second of this Fall weather!!
