Dan and I spent the weekend after Thanksgiving in Scottsdale, Arizona celebrating our seven year anniversary and first trip away from the pumpkin. We took a total of four pictures...
To be honest, I have no superb highlight reel to show you... We mostly just relaxed and hung out. Our view was awesome and if it weren't for the golf course and mountain in the background, it could have passed for a place in Mexico. We ate at some great restaurants, got an awesome couples massage, took naps, went to bed early, woke up late, won and then lost $20 bucks at a casino, and did some shopping. Dan thought he was in heaven when he found a mac store and was able to set up an appointment for them to help him with his computer. And I thought I was in heaven when I shopped at Anthropologie after finishing lunch at Chessecake Factory. It's the little things.
What a great weekend. I learned three things while we were gone:
1. I have severely underestimated the restorative power of uninterrrupted smooching and four nights of uninterrupted sleep
2. It is possible to actually watch your hind end get larger if you eat with no abandon
3. I had no idea how much we would miss this pumpkin as much as we did.
I only had one meltdown. Luckily, we were able to fly back a little earlier than we planned on Tuesday and spent the rest of Tuesday night playing with the princess. I wish I could have captured her face when she saw us. It was absolutely priceless.

uninterrupted smooching - is that what they're calling it these days? ;)
on a g-rated blogger, yes. it must be called uninterrupted smooching. thanks again for working on the Christmas cards so quickly! love them!
i don't like the word smooch. it's too...what's the term for words that sound like the sound they make? There is a word for that...
you are welcome - sent the order in this morning!
smooching...! at'a girl...
scottsdale is a pretty place! glad you guys had fun. loves.
Ohh.. I'm jealous!
We just did the same thing...well, almost..anniversary celebration, stayed in Texas, BUT it was our first time away from Anners. It was so weird being away from her yet very relaxing. I agree about the sleep & smooching part. Wasn't it such a sweet feeling to come home & see her after all that time? She was asleep when we got home but we both rushed to her crib just so we could see how much she'd grown!
I'm glad y'all took the trip. So important.
P.S. Um...Cheesecake Factory...yeah, definitely the highlight of our trip minus the New Moon premier. We actually ordered THREE DIFFERENT CHEESECAKES FOR DESSERT. Insane.
