The Arnold Family: And Summer Continues...

Since we got back from Colorado, Brant and I have been going back and forth from Tucson to Phoenix. Last weekend we were able to spend a ton of time with Meg and Mark...and Jenny! It was so wonderful to see them considering they abandoned us in Tucson :-(...J/K! We finalized the bridesmaid dresses for their wedding and they are beautiful! I cannot wait to wear it for their special day, which if you ask me is still too darn far away, LOL! We were also able to check out where their new house is going to be!!! Brant and I had wanted to live in the Desert Ridge area to be closer to Phoenix Children's, but I realized that I just can't live that far away from my best friend! We decided that if there are still houses left **cross our fingers** we want to live in their same neighborhood! If not we want to live as close as possible!
Brant went right back to work right after vacation...such a wonderful husband...but my lazy butt stayed home for a two weeks and I am back to work now. I was dreading it, but I got new shoes and a better attitude and it is slowly getting better!
We are so excited for Dave and Beth (Dave is in architecture with Brant and they also work together) to get married this weekend. They are having a very small intimate wedding on 6/28/08 at the Starr Pass Resort in Tucson. It was so wonderful of them to let us share in this day with them considering everyone else there is immediate family! We were also able to go to their rehearsal lunch today. It was so great to meet their family...they were all so friendly and welcoming. His brother and sister in law just had a baby girl 6 six weeks ago and you know me...I just couldn't wait to get my hands on her! She was absolutely adorable even after the three times she spit up on me, LOL! Brant even helped me change her clothes...big step for him, LOL! It was so cute to see him attempting it and asking me how in the world he was supposed to take off the little bloomers and put on the pants HEHE! Dave's parents had t-shirts made with "Meet the Adriaanses" across the front and the whole family had to change into them for pictures, LOL! His family is Dutch so the shirts were orange (apparently the national color) and they even had wooden shoe slippers...even the baby, LOL! It was a wonderful day and we are even more excited for the wedding tomorrow...more pictures to come!
