Phoenix Trip

Since it has almost been two months since I have posted anything, I've decided it is now time to play catch-up. The last few months have been busy for us, with lots of small things going on, and of course, getting ready for the holidays!
At the end of November, right before Thanksgiving, my mom got word that her sister in Arizona had a seizure and would most likely not be with us for much longer. She wanted to go and see her, and Priya and I went along for the ride. I hadn't seen my aunt in a long time, so it was nice to be able to go down there and say goodbye. She passed away shortly after our trip to see her. It is so sad, but we also know that she is in a better place, and she is out of pain. Sometimes life can be so hard, but it is nice to know that Someone Else is at the helm.
My Aunt April flew in from back East, and my cousin James, his wife Laura, my Uncle Scott, and Nana also drove down from Utah to visit her.
I did not do a good job of getting pictures on our trip (I didn't get any of me). Here are a few of the pictures that I got around to taking:


Priya and her buddy sleeping on the drive down

This is what happens when a 1 year old is left in the back seat alone with a box of tissues (and mom and grandma in the front seat not paying enough attention, apparently)! Priya doesn't have a happy face here because when we discovered what she had done, we started laughing, and Priya DID NOT appreciate us laughing at her.

The sky on the way home. We were racing to beat that storm that came in right before Thanksgiving.
