This is definitely my favorite time of year in Orlando. The temps have finally fallen under 90! and will keep getting milder and milder and more fabulous as the days pass. We'll be enjoying 70 when most of the rest of the US is enjoying temps that are slightly chillier.
Last year I put together a list of some of the fun family events in Central Florida. A couple people have asked for it again...so here it is! Please let me know if you hear of something that's not on my list. I try to be "in-the-know" and love sharing that info along to you all. If you aren't in Central Florida...then what kind of fun Fall Events do they have in your area? You should do some research and enjoy this fun time of year!
(I'll have to do another one of these mid-November to highlight Christmas events - someone remind me if I don't do it!)
Now until Dec 11th
- Long and Scott Farms Corn Maze - Zellwood, FL - This is a really fun experience! If you've never done one before, you should try it out this year! - more info here

Friday Oct 7th
- Celebration Oktoberfest and Falling Leaves - We usually go to this event every year. The kids love watching the "leaves" fall from the sky and we love walking around and listening to the music. And the church that we usually park by has a really great pumpkin patch!

Saturday Oct 8th
- Celebration Oktoberfest and Falling Leaves
- Winter Park Autumn Art Festival - I've never been, but I need to get to this Art Festival this year!
Sunday Oct 9th
- Winter Park Autumn Art Festival
- Homespun Chic Marketplace - I've been to this several times in the past. It's like Etsy in real life. You get to touch and feel and see all the stuff before buying it. One of the reasons I don't buy more on Etsy (probably a good thing!).
Friday Oct 14th
- Avalon Park Oktoberfest - we go to this event every year and enjoy eating brats and walking around.
