F A L L: the Fair and Apple Annies

I signed my boys up for the County Fair talent contest this year. McKay practiced so hard to be ready and did GREAT! He won third place and got $10 for his efforts!

After I signed them up, Matt found out he would have to compete against McKay and decided he didn't want to do it this year. When we got out to the fair, the woman in charge informed us that they had moved Matt to the younger division so he wouldn't have to compete against his brother. He started freaking out because he hadn't prepared anything, so I told him HE could go tell them he wasn't going to compete. They persuaded him to play ANYTHING he had memorized. So down he went in his shorts and t-shirt to play the only song he could remember without music. The kid won second place- & $20-I told him that was probably the easiest $20 he would ever get! That's our MATT!

Since we had Friday off for Fair Day (my college

roomates from Mesa used to mock our fair day holiday :)

We decided to go to Apple Annies in Wilcox. It was a

pretty cool place! Next time we'll go on a Saturday, though,

so we can actually go on a hayride and pick a pumpkin.

My boys LOVED the corn maze.

I LOVE SUNFLOWERS!!!!!

Addie & Maci- I have honestly never

seen a connection between cousins like there is with

these 2. They are the BEST of friends! I just hope they

always stay that way!
