Early Thanksgiving in Arizona

We went to Arizona for an early Thanksgiving with Jared's family. This is the second year we've celebrated Thanksgiving this way, and I loved it. It was such a treat! (Jared's parents very generously flew everyone out!)

It was great visiting with the family. I loved seeing all the nieces and nephews, especially since there were a few additions this year. The food was delicious; everyone contributed by making their “specialty.” And the weather certainly didn't disappoint. I loved the 90+ degrees! Also, since my sister and her husband live in Arizona, we were able to spend a little time with them. The weekend was wonderful!

Happy October

I’m always a little bummed when summer ends. However, today Jared and I spent time outside enjoying the fall weather. Although I was wishing it was a tad bit warmer, the crisp, cool air was definitely refreshing.

Home Sweet Home

This is our new place - we absolutely love it! Below are some photos...

Colorado

Laura and I went on a little road trip to Colorado to visit some of my family - it was awesome hanging out with them! Max and I used our ridiculously, amazing skills to create some Lego masterpieces! Unfortunately, I didn't get pictures of our creations...dang it! Maybe next time...

A surprise for moi...

This arrived in the mail for me! It was all Jared's doing; I'm so excited!! He said it was, "just because." I'm liking those 'just because' surprises!

Arizona (Tombstone, Sedona, Flagstaff )

After moving into our condo, we decided we needed a little break from all the stress of moving, unpacking, cleaning, etc...so we took a little trip to Arizona. We visited with Jared's parents, and spent time with my sister and her fiancé. It was an awesome trip! We checked out some of the historic sites in Tombstone, perused the shops in Sedona, and hiked in Flagstaff. Below are the pictures, Jared took lots.

It's Official...

No more renting for us! We closed on a condo last week...can't wait until we're actually settled in. We'll post pictures soon...
