A five week journey, Part 4: Phoenix and the Tarbutton Wedding

Next stop: Phoenix, Arizona, to see our friend Julie. She got married on November 11th (11/11/11), and we weren’t originally going to be there for the wedding, but since school got postponed, we got to be there after all! She picked us up at the airport and took us to In and Out for lunch. For those of you not from California (or AZ, I guess), In and Out is a burger chain that has something like a cult following.

 We spent five awesome days with Julie and Matt and her family, just hanging out, running errands, and talking… a lot! (and hugging too, Julie is a hugger J) Her family was so generous to us: Julie’s grandma let us stay in her guestroom, and her parents lent us their car and cell phone. Julie’s sister even lent me a dress for the wedding. We got to help set up for the reception the morning of the wedding, and decorate the get-away vehicle, in this case, a golf cart. The wedding was simple and beautiful and the whole thing was a ton of fun. Thanks to her folks for helping us fly out there: it was wonderful!
