Fall Activities

The fall in Arizona is perfect for outside adventures. Not cold at all, just cooler than 110˚ which is beautiful to us! Elsie got to experience quite a few different outdoor events the end of October and November.

Balloon Festival

Aunt Katie and Johnny joined me and Elsie for an evening outside watching hot air balloons light up. It was very fun! Hopefully it will become a family tradition!

AZ State Fair

I have always loved the fair, only for 2 reasons - Indian Fry Bread (San Tan Fry Bread is the only place we get it, family favorite) and the exhibits. I love the cakes, my mom loves the quilts. The Curtis family all went and enjoyed a night together at the fair.

Check out the gorgeous blue eyes! Heartbreaker in the making!

Aunt Katie and Cousin Johnny

What a cute little face!

Hey, look at me!!

3 generations enjoying the fair! (How gorgeous is Grandma Boo!)

Oh do we love the quilts. Someday we will convince

Grandma Boo to submit one of her gorgeous creations!

Pictures with Cousin Johnny

Elsie and Cousin Johnny are exactly 4 months apart, but you would never guess that based on the size. They both are on total opposite ends of the spectrum. Elsie is our little pipsqueak who lands somewhere between the 20th percentile in weight. Johnny is our huge little man who has always been in the 90th percentile. We wanted to get some picture of them together on Christmas. Elsie would have nothing to do with it, which made Johnny annoyed. These our are efforts.

Take #1: Grandma Boo and grandbabies...

Take #2 Grandma Boo: (Maybe if I put a finger in her mouth. she will be happy. Nope!)

Aunt Tracy's turn! A little more successful...

However, holding one 12 lb baby on one side, and one 25 lb baby on the other, makes for quite the workout and balancing act!
