Another year...

The excitement of arriving 
at the Az State Fair...

A little high school rodeo action...

And the view from the "death"
ride roller coaster, six year old
Tobyn made me go on.
My eyes were closed and
Tobyn said "I was screaming like a girl!"
He was right!

Jackpot!...

We were filling pinata's and
Easton and Olivia were
like "kids in the candy shop" literally!
Olivia squealed and jumped
right in the middle of it!

In an effort to downsize, simplify,
and just generally "muck" out...
We are having a MEGA yard sale,

There's a little bit of everything,

and everything in between.

You know you want it...
Come check it out!
