A Whirlwind Visit to Tucson


As you all know, we love getting down to Arizona whenever we can. We had the chance for a visit a few weekends back. So, Reese boarded yet another flight (these were flights #9-#12) and we headed down to T-town! Todd and I had the chance to enjoy our first night out (i.e. a "date") since Reese entered our lives! My mom had the much awaited chance to babysit Miss Reese while we attended the wedding of my childhood friend Corrine Mellegard to Ken King. The wedding was beautiful and we had a great time catching up with some old friends!




Holly came down from Phoenix the next day and it was great to spend time with my mom, sister and daughter!! It doesn't happen nearly enough, so I truly appreciate every moment we all have together. We also got to see Ryan and Sarah and of course Reese enjoyed getting to spend time with all of her friends and family.





We were headed home that Monday, so before we had to head to the airport, we spent the day with Todd's brother Kevin, his girlfriend Val, and our beautiful new niece, Sarah Nichole! It is amazing how quickly you forget just how tiny a brand newborn is! Reese looked like a pre-schooler next to her cousin! Baby and family are doing well and we can't wait to see her again when we visit at Christmas time.





It was a crazy quick weekend, but it was wonderful, as always, to spend some time with our friends and family! We love Portland, but it is always so wonderful to go home and see our nearest and dearest! We miss you all!
