Sorry for the absence... Here's a post about my favorite thing to do in the Fall!


It's State Fair time again!!! 
It was a hilarious night full of fair animals (I love them), deep-fried food, rides that might fall apart at any moment, and really really great people watching. It was awesome. And highly entertaining. 
We went with our friends eric+kimmi and beth+strater and made them all go on GRAVITRON! Remember it from last year?? haha







 Kimmi, me, and Beth!

Friends in Paris: Episode 1

After our European road trip, (read parts 1 & 2 here) Eric and Kimmi spent the next week in Paris with us!
We love having friends in Paris.

Anyways, it was such a blast!
We:
> picnic'd in front of the Eiffel Tower

> went on tours with JP's school group of Le Marais (old mansions in Paris!) and the Louvre (obvi)

> stopped by a carnival where I purchased the largest cotton candy of my life and JP consumed more sugar than I thought was humanly possible. 

> strolled along the Champ Elysees and visited the Sacre Coeur

and...
> we ate at some of the best restaurants Paris has to offer, because let's be honest, we're just here for the food ;)

It was the best week, and then we jetted off to Sardinia, Italy for the weekend! 
(and those posts will be coming soon, don't you worry haha)




 ^^^ Stumbled upon some kids playing basketball, right next to the 1000 year old city wall. 
I think moments like this are why I love Paris!

 ^^^ Nike Frees are the best way to walk around Paris. Just swallow that pride and do it! 

 ^^^ I'm not kidding. That thing was ENORMOUS!

 ^^^ So. Much. Candy. 

^^^ Ummm, yeah. Kimmi is a babe!


^^^ A rare, all-four-of-us shot!

 ^^^ Winged Victory. Absolutely amazing.


 ^^^ Mona. She may be small, but da Vinci considered her to be his greatest masterpiece and so do I!

The Sundance Fair








 This past weekend Sundance Resort had their annual craft fair/farmers market, and so my madre, my cousin Lucy, and I decided to drive up and have a look around! 

It ended up being super fun -there was an inordinate amount of large dogs (which I loved), some deliciously organic food, and a random booth that had real-life OWLS, which was awesome,  along with booths of all sorts of interesting artsy crafty things. 
And I had the opportunity to get in touch with my inner 5 year old and decorate a Halloween cookie, so it was win-win all around!
