State Fair

I have always loved the Arizona State Fair....my dad use to take me every October when I was kid and I cherish those fair memories.  I have forced that fair love on Brady and Madi, however Madi seems to really be excited year after year.  She is completely unfazed by most of the rides.  She'll go on all of them.  Last year she was just a few inches too short for lots of them and all year long she kept asking if she was tall enough...so sure enough she was!! She can go on pretty much all the rides...she even wanted to go on the death drop ride...thankfully she wasn't tall enough for that one this year.

Since the State Fair usually comes around my birthday, that's what we did for it...birthday at the State Fair, my cake....Funnel Cake. I know it's super bad for me but I only have it once a year so I think it's fine :)  Thanks for a fun day and Happy Birthday to me!!

Schnepf Farms

Is there a funner place to visit during the fall? We don't think so!! We have made going to Schnepf Farms our family tradition (this is year 2:) to go each October. We did sooo many fun things there that by the time we got home we all crashed. Here are a few of the activities we partook in: watched the dog show, almost was talked into a new puppy (me more so than Brady), roller coaster, swings, long tunnel slide, big bike path, kiddie bike maze, face painting, haystack climbing, bee riding, tree house climbing, shaved ice, and of course picking out our family pumpkin for Halloween.

Now we are really ready for Halloween!!

Amy & Geoff's Wedding

My sweet sister-in-law is now Mrs. Geoff Marincovich (just like it's spelled). Yipeeee!! Amy and Geoff are such a cute couple and had an absolutely beautiful wedding. They were married in a Catholic Church in Scottsdale and then had a reception at the georgeous Villa Sienna in Gilbert.....it was a gem of a place.

This first picture is of the 3 cutest flower girls ever!! :) They were all very excited to learn what their jobs were for their Auntie Amy's special day and they did a fabulous job.

Above is Madi getting a little blush and lip gloss from the MAC makeup artist whom we both loved and she did a fabulous job on some of us bridesmaides.

Unfortunately since Brady, Madi and I were all blessed to be in the wedding there wasn't lots of opportunities for me to take my own pics so I had to ask around (if I get more I will post them). The photographers did a wonderful job and took many many great pictures. I thought the picture with the little kids sitting on the "red carpet" with the new bride is adorable. They were all just chillin' waiting for all the pictures to be over so they could go in and party!! Which it was....a great big fun party.

Congrats Geoff and Amy!! We love you both!
