On Friday night we went to the Thunderbird NAWMB party (Women's association fundraiser). Here is the gang, we have met a ton of awesome people down here! I am kinda like the student third wheel, since a lot of Speen's closest friends are single, but I still have a blast!
Here is a pic of Spence and I with some of our loot! They had tons of fun games to play at this party. Spence was one of the only people to win at this tic tac toe bottle game - he ended up cleaning them out of prizes, he won 5 Thunderbird t-shirts, 3 notebooks, some pens, treats, and a few Thunderbird bags. My parents went home with a plethora of Thunderbird gifts! I even won a bag playing the coke/pepsi/rc cola challenge... and I don't even drink pop!
On Saturday morning my dad came into town for a couple of days. He is also ADORABLE with Lance. (*Note the shorts Lance is wearing in this picture are mini NIKE workout shorts - how adorable is that!?!)
Doesn't Lance have some CUTE grandparents! He loves Poppy and JoJo. He is also excited that Mimi and Papa will be down to see him for Thanksgiving.
Saturday night we went to the PHOENIX FAIR!!! The funnest part was that Lance stayed awake 85% of the time! From this picture you can tell that he had a blast. What a trooper!
We showed him the animals. He and Poppy especially loved the Budweiser Clydesdale Horses. They were enormous and beautiful too!
Lance especially liked cuddling up to Poppy!
Another nice thing about living in AZ (I just keep loving it more and more and more) - is that we have a hiking park just down the street from our house. We were planning to take Lance on a hike yesterday, but when we got there the wind was blowing pretty hard and so Spence took him home and I just went on the hike with my parents.
Here is a pic of the hiking divas!
Thanks mom and dad for coming. We had an absolute blast with you guys and can't wait to see you at Christmas!

How freaking cute are your parents!!! We are so lucky to have such nice parents that help us out sooo much! I can't believe how buff you are...what the heck?? That is not fair. You are such a darling family. Love you guys. Lance is getting way too big.:(
Your parents are so great! Sounds like you had a fabulous time and it was probably nice to get a little of "you and spencer time".
AND, i totally know Dale...the kid you are sitting next to in the picture at the Thunderbird party. He was in my ward up here before he went down there for school. I think he is in a few of my pictures from my cinco de mayo post back in May. Small world!
such cute pictures--your parents are darling. remember how everyone was scared of your dad in high school? kind of hard to believe when you see a picture of him holding little lance! haha.
Looks like you guys are having so much fun in Phoenix! We took Kate to see those budweiser clydesdales in Cali and she LOVED them too! So to answer your ?, yah Tanna and i married brothers! It's crazy, but it's turned out to be pretty fun too, sharing in-laws and everything. p.s. Lance is so adorable!
Ahh I love your family!
I'm so glad that your parents came down for a visit - isn't it the best? lance changes so much every time i see him, i can't wait till he and tienna are big enough to actually play together!
Grandparents are the best! I am so lucky to have my parents so close! Love it!
katie! My mom just recently filled me in that Loa's gone!! OHHH!! I am sorry- but she lived such a great life... I had no idea that she died- I feel bad about not saying anything sooner. Anyway. she left a legend- my mom adored her!
Fun pics you two. You little sass.
I love the sunglasses picture. Aren't grandparents great? Don't worry, by the time you leave T-bird, you'll have doubled... or tripled the number of t-bird t-shirts. Forget business shirts, just wear those!
You look so darling Katie! I am so impressed! It sounds like the last little while has been crazy, but I am glad you were able to have your parents in town and that you live in a warm place...those are two major pluses! Lance is adorable too!
way to go on the books! I am so glad you liked them. They are terrific!!!
And what great pictures! I bet it was soooooo good to have your parents there!!
Oh Thanks for the info! I'm going to look into it. Lance is so cute in the sunglasses! I'm jealous that you will have a warm winter!
oh and i added you to my list!
Katie, Katie...where is the Bakers outlet? Please say it's in AZ! The shoes you got are adorable!
Fun to see your mom, I remember at Driggs when you guys would have matching curly hair. SO cute. :)

You are darling. I found you while blog surfing and it is so fun to see your darling fam. You look great! ~Steph (Terry)
