Hi Friends! I am here with Patty for our monthly linkup. We hope you will join us! We are talking all things Fall and Back To School and answering the questions below...
Here we go...
1. Any back to school traditions?
We go Back To School shopping for some new clothes and school supplies and Mama meal plans for the month of September in advance
We also have our obligatory pictures on the first day of school on our front steps and always a special meal at night to commemorate the start of the school year
2. How do you celebrate Back to School?
See above!
3. Favorite Early Fall/Back To School Meals? Can you share a Recipe?
Frito Pie HERE
Crockpot Queso Chicken Tacos HERE
My Chicken Broccoli and Ziti HERE
4. What Are Your Go To Outfits For Early Fall?

Jeans with Sneakers or Wedges and Fun Tops and Sweaters
I usually go with layers in early fall because by the afternoon it gets warm and a tee shirt or tank works just fine!
5. Do kids go back to school before or after Labor Day where you are?
Unfortunately before...wish it was after like when we were growing up!
6. When do you start to decorate for early fall?
In September...slowly bring out the pumpkins and decorate the yard
7. How do you get back into the fall routine?
I start by meal planning and populating the family calendar. Once school starts, it takes me a good two weeks to get into the groove and into the new routine
8. What are you most looking forward to this fall?
Friday Night Lights of course!
9. Do you decorate for fall? If so when?
See # 6
10. What feels like fall to you?
Sitting by a fire- drinking a caramel apple martini- the frost on the front lawn and of course FNL

I don't ever remember starting school after Labor day but we might have when I was younger. I'm sure the private school I went to for most of elementary school sure did since we didn't have to worry about the 180 days!
I love the back to school time. I still do photos on the first day, it will be my youngests last next week. Hmmf.
I love the pumpkins by your front door, I wish decorating for Halloween was a bigger thing here in the UK.
Sometimes private school sounds really great to me- ha! ;)
Aww you have a senior too? Sending you hugs Mama! :)
Your recipes all look and sound really good. Great first day of school pics! Eva is getting so tall- beautiful young ladies! Can't wait to follow along with the senior year/cheer activities :).
Sounds like great fall plans! Thanks for the inspiration on the chicken queso tacos. That sounds so easy and delicious!
