Weekend in Phoenix

At Christmas we were told that our niece, Sarah, was going to be baptized in January. She really wanted her Uncle Justin to be there. So the decision was a "no brainer." We were going to be there.

Since we had been there just a short 3 weeks before January 16th, we were determined to make this trip as cheap as possible.

We rented this.


(Don't be fooled. Horrible thing to drive. No guts.)

And we drove to Phoenix on Jan. 15th. It was fun. I love road trips with Justin because I get him ALL TOO MY SELF! Not that I really have to share ever, but this really is just "me and Justin time." My favorite time.

The Baptism was wonderful! Sadly I didn't take pictures of the lovely Sarah, but Here is a picture of our Family in Arizona.

We love going to see them. We wish we were closer :-(

The girls just adore Justin. Especially this little one, Jessica.

We were so happy that we got to spend a weekend (other than a regular holiday) down with family. It was great to be there for Sarah. She's so sweet, and loving. She's a wonderful big sister, and such a great example for Anna and Jessica. We're very proud of her and her decision to be baptized.

Here's a picture of us and the girls.

Sadly, our fun weekend getaway came to a close. We had to pack up, get on a plane, and go home. Thank goodness we didn't have to drive all the way back to SacTown. We got to live the car in Phoenix! Strangely this was the cheapest way to do it. I'm sure there will be many more times that this happens. HA!

We love and miss our family in Phoenix VERY VERY MUCH!
Someday, we'll all be closer.
