Last couple of weeks

The first weekend in October, Mere and Christie (and Huntley) came for a visit.  We shipped Steven off to the beach for a few days (just kidding), so it was just us girls!

We had a great time hanging out, catching up, eating out and watching football.  Everyone else's team won on Saturday, except my beloved Tide :(  Oh well...

Headed out for a fun day of shopping and eating

A few weeks later, we went to the Alabama/Texas A&M game. Fulton stayed with KK & Pop, while the four of us went to the game.

The next weekend, Steven had plans to visit a client in Arizona and I thought this would be a perfect opportunity to tag along.

After flying out of Birmingham late Thursday afternoon, and the time change, I think we finally crawled in bed around 2 am (central time). 

 

So on Friday, after we did a little shopping and had lunch, pool time was in order.  Did I mention they had record highs that weekend in Phoenix?  Oh yeah, the temp was around 95!  Dry heat they say...well is was still hot!  We pretty much had the pool to ourselves, so that was nice!

Later that night, we drove over to the Old Town Scottsdale area.  It was a really neat town with lights strung over the tops of the stores from one side of the street to the other.  Tons of great restaurants and fun little shops.

Saturday, Steven spent some time with his clients and I did a little shopping nearby.  After their meeting, we had lunch together and local brewery per their suggestion.

The Alabama/Tennessee game was on later that day and we found a fun place to watch it and actually ran into a few Bama fans in there..so fun!

One of the things I was really looking forward to on our trip was going to an NFL game.  I really care nothing about NFL football and don't keep up with any of the teams or players, but have always wanted to go to a game.  It was a lot of fun and luckily it was indoors or we might have melted...ha!

Fun trip to the dessert...but I'm not gonna lie, I love living in Alabama after being out there :)
