Hello, Tuesday! Chelsea here.

Happy October, my friends! I’m so ready to get into the full swing of autumn. Nothing says fall for me personally, like getting a little spooky. But maybe your perfect fall vibes are a cool festival, a fun day with the kids at the zoo, or checking out a concert. Luckily, October is full (and I mean full) of fun stuff to do. I hope you’re ready to be really busy because you’re going to want to check out a bunch of the things on this list this month! I hope you have a great start to October today!
