Ren Fest

Last weekend my sister and I went to the Renaissance Festival. I have never been before, so I really didn't know what to expect. We enjoyed walking around, watching the characters and shows, and eating turkey legs and kettle corn! They even had a petting zoo!

AZ

We returned to Arizona last week for the first time since we moved. Gosh we sure did miss it! The weather was perfect! The trip wasn't long enough and there's never enough time to see everyone or do everything we had planned to do. One of our main objectives was to check on my house. My tenant lost his wife earlier this summer and he is really struggling. There were some issues with the house that needed addressed so that consumed most of our time. I was disappointed in the condition of my house, yard, and pool, but nobody takes care of your home like you do. It's all fixable and he pays me good rent ON TIME every single month so I shouldn't complain, right?? Here are some more of the highlights:

My dear friend Genella had a baby in July. Here's me and little miss Mia. She's so precious and a little "diva" as her daddy says!!

Of couse we had to hit some of our favorite eating spots! In-N-Out Burger is the bomb!
The other main reason for visiting AZ was for the wedding of one of my former technicians from Walgreens. It was a beautiful day and is was so good to see some of my former co-workers. The pictures are in reverse order, but you get the idea!
They had sparklers at the end of the night which I thought were pretty neat.

Devin was lucky enough to catch the garder. They made him do a dance and put the garder on the girl that caught the bouquet. He was a good sport! It should have been me in that chair! I had the bouquet in my hand and then she came and robbed me of it! I was left with only a few petals in my hand......boo.



My Melissa and I
The bride and groom!
They had an outdoor wedding that was just beautiful!

Genella and I. We stayed with her and her husband Eric and they were great hosts! We miss them. They are awesome friends.
