This was a busy week! We headed down to Phoenix for a long weekend in order to celebrate Jay’s dad’s award (Master of the Southwest) and to go wedding dress shopping with Sharon’s mom who flew in from Virginia. Jay got to ride mountain bikes with his brother as I went with my mom and Jay’s mom to several different shops and tried on a couple dozen dresses. I finally found a fabulous dress and was able to relax and enjoy playing with my niece Laya and enjoying the beautiful weather. The weekend was a bit tiring, but it was a really special opportunity to be with family.

Now we are back in Flagstaff enjoying unseasonably nice weather. Unfortunately Jay has a sinus infection and has spent most of the last two days in bed. Hopefully he will be back to full health soon in time to spend this weekend with our friends Rachel and Luke and their daughter Monica who are coming to visit.

We celebrated three Holt birthdays; it wasn't Laya's birthday, but she loved the ice cream cake!
Volunteering: Sharon is volunteering tonight for Sun Sounds of Arizona (2.5 hrs).
Beer of the Week: Deschutes Black Butte Porter
Something New: Sharon entered the wedding dress world, shopping at five stores with her mom and finally finding a gorgeous gown at the last shop.
Highlight of Being in One Place: Being there for family. Jay’s dad was recognized Thursday night as a Master of the Southwest and we got to celebrate with him.
