Arizona Bound

I was finally able to visit Arizona. It had been way too

 l      o      n      g  !

I had yet to meet my newest nephew and it was my sweet Mother Dearests birthday. 

Flights have been so bad over the summer that when I saw how wonderfully open they were early on a Wednesday morning, I called up Jordan & told him to book my flight! One hour later I was headed to Arizona!

Drake is adorable and quite chunky! What a sweet boy he is!  For my mom's birthday we celebrated by meeting Ben at Firehouse Subs for lunch...his treat! {It's free on your birthday, by the way.}

 After lunch, we did some shopping.

My mom loves Jordan's Grandma Twila's Rocky Road Chocolate Buttermilk Cake and that was what she requested for her birthday cake. 

I was so happy to see all these kiddos!

While I was in Mesa, my sister-in-law had her baby girl, Livy. So I got to visit her too!

This sweet little girl weighed in at a whopping 10 pounds 8 ounces at the time of her birth!

I was also able to sneak in a quick visit to good old SSE & see all these beautiful faces that I miss working with everyday.

I had just missed Marianne,

but she drove all the way to see me when she got off work {super sweet of her} & I was thrilled to hear she was {finally} pregnant!  So very happy for her!

I had fun seeing everyone and spending some precious moments with my family, whom I miss! 

I was definitely needed back home though...

before all the toilet paper got torn to pieces.

Since I have been home, I have been helping Cadbury kick his toilet paper eating habit &...

I got my hair cut!

I also was made an official Okie...I got my Oklahoma Driver's License.  I'm not gonna lie, I had a hard time parting with the old Arizona one.  Oh well, time to move on!
