Start with a kiss
A cider toast
Before you head out, start your harvest with a warm seven-second kiss. You'll make a toast later, over dinner.Pour two cups of warm cider, grab a blanket, and raise your cups to the two of you.
"To us, and to this season together. Here's toβ¦"
Take turns finishing the toast. Then seal it with a kiss.

Then head to your fall spot.
Harvest hunt
Walk around together and find all 12. Tap each one when you spot it. Take photos along the way!
Pumpkin portraits
Each of you secretly decorates a pumpkin (or apple) that represents your spouse: their face, a favorite thing, or an inside joke. No peeking!
Sit back to back, or in different rooms, so your spouse can't see.
When time is up, reveal your pumpkins one at a time. Explain what you made and why it made you think of your spouse.
- What made you pick that design?
- What's something you love about me that didn't fit on the pumpkin?
The gratitude basket
It's harvest season, a time to give thanks. Take turns sharing reasons you're thankful for each other. Each one adds an apple to your basket.
Order something warm to drink (hot cider, cocoa, or coffee). Then raise your cups and take turns finishing the toast:
"To us, and to this season together. Here's toβ¦"
"Let us not grow weary in well-doing, for in due time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up."GALATIANS 6:9 (BSB)

The drive home
Fireside
Sip something warm, put on some cozy music, and talk on the way home.Curl up by the fire (or the candles) under a blanket, put on some cozy music, and talk.
- What was your favorite moment of our harvest date?
- What's one thing you're thankful for that we didn't say tonight?
- How can I make this season a little cozier for you?
Let the passenger pick the music, so the driver keeps eyes on the road.
End the night wrapped up together at home. Warm, thankful, and close.
