Oh the places you'll go...

...and oh the places I've been!

It all started with these two deciding to get hitched,

Robyn + Shane

So on August 18th, Mr. Klis and I stepped off the plane into what can really only be called an oven. It was unreal. I think I literally melted, melted, in that Arizona summer. It really is a desert down there. The sun surrounds you with its heat, dusty, dry, practically treeless scenery engulfs you, but in its own way, its kinda beautiful. Mr. and I were particularly intrigued by the abundant cacti. I wanted to kick one but decided against it.

My parents rented a convertible for the weekend which was fun, but maybe not as "cool" as it could have been (get it..."cool"...because it was so awful hot, even when driving with the top down...got it yet? Well, I thought it was clever).

The wedding, the whole purpose of this trip to Arizona, was lovely.

We started the day bright and early, and while Krista and I helped and helped Robyn get ready, Mr. was also very helpful:



Luckily, we didn't really need much help.

I know, I know, I didn't get a lot of pictures of the happy couple. I promise I tried! But most of all them were the eyes half-closed, open mouthed expressions no one likes to see posted anywhere, so I have kept them to myself. Trust me though, Robyn and Shane both looked so wonderful and so happy, photos simply would not do the day justice.
