"Weekend" in Phoenix!

I flew into Phoenix late Friday morning, and was met at the airport by Michael and Rohan - what a surprise! I had just spoken to Heather and she told me she was on her way! ;) Over the next couple of days, I had lots of Rohan-time - it was absolutely wonderful!! I also got to see Mike and Lorrie, and Steve and most of John's family. It was a lot of fun getting to know his siblings better - I especially enjoyed Katye and Chris, as they were staying at Heather and John's when I was there, and Karla, Bear and Molly, too! I spent Saturday night after the wedding, at Mara and Mike's - so more Rohan-time! I got in about a mile of running with Mara on Sunday am before I crapped out in the heat. There were lots of opportunities to slither into the pool to cool off - what a treat! Also got in some shopping at Ross' with Mara and Rohan on Sunday. ;)
The wedding was beautiful, as were all the people there. The party was a lot of fun - excellent DJ! The food was delicious, too! [Note: if soda cans are stored in the heat too long, they explode!] The Schmit Clan really knows how to throw a party and have a good time - it was great! So glad I was able to be there for their special day. (See the Schmit Blog for a better re-cap of the weekend)
My flight home was uneventful, heading out at 6:50 am on Monday. It seemed like I had been gone for a week, instead of 3 days +, we packed in so much visiting and fun! Thanks to Heather and John for the wonderful hospitality, and Mara and her family, too! Next time, Dan is coming, too!!!!!
