Fall at the Cabin

Hello friends! Today I thought I'd share a few pictures of what fall is looking like at the cabin this year. I wait all year for the leaves to change. It is truly the most wonderful time of the year to me. Welcome!

Let's start at our cabin and then we'll take a ride to see some of the foliage nearby. We'll start inside but, let's face it, the star of the show at this time of year is the outdoors so we'll spend more time out there. 

On the kitchen fireplace, I hung the old pallet sign I made many years ago. This has become such a core piece of my Autumn decor and it wouldn't feel like fall without it. I added the pack basket to the mantel and tried to make it appear that fall was literally spilling out from it. Not sure if I succeeded or not but I had fun putting it together.

It's hard to remember what the kitchen looked like before the addition of this island. This island has become the heart of the cabin. I love when everyone gathers around it! Such a great feeling when a plan comes to fruition and works out like you hoped it would. 

I made some fun cut out cookies for fall. Why do I usually only make cookies like this at Christmas? These were pretty to look at AND delicious. I used THIS recipe. Use good vanilla and I promise you will be surprised at just how yummy they are. The dough was super easy to work with. The sprinkles were from Hobby Lobby. These would be perfect for Thanksgiving too.

Let's take a peak into the living room before heading to the back porch.

The big firewood delivery came so we had to make room for that but we still left room to enjoy our new DIY porch swing in the fall.

This porch also leads to our fire pit area.

The fire pit is the most popular spot to spend evenings at the cabin. I captured this pic during blue hour.

Let's head back through back door and check out the front porch. Dax is always ready to greet us with a smile. The kitchen door leads to the front porch.

Let's have some pumpkin pancakes on the porch and then head out to do some leap peeping.

This spot nearby the cabin is our favorite spot to watch the leaves change in fall.

Sitting in this open field feels like sitting inside fall. It was a sunny day and the colors were unreal. Such a great memory of the season. I tried to take in as much as I could before the long cold winter.

The downtown area of Schroon Lake was alive with color too.

Dax at our favorite pond, most likely the last swim of the season.

And a few more pics from this year in surrounding areas. I'm not a landscape photographer by any means but I do enjoy capturing moments and images. I share some here and on Instagram but I take them more for personal satisfaction than anything else.

Thanks so much for stopping by today! My mind is currently bursting with Christmas decorating ideas and I'm ready to get started on that. I also plan to put together a post with some Halloween decor pics from our NJ home. Have a wonderful day!
