Hanging out in Arizona

We had a great time enjoying our vacation last week in Arizona.
Rock star Jay won a trip to The Phoencian in Scottsdale and then we made our way up to Sedona. I had never been to Arizona so seeing that part of the country - the desert, canyons, colors and culture - was amazing. We walked around Camelback Mountain, spent a day at the pool cabanas, golfed and went to the spa. (I really dig the spa portion of trips.) In the evening we ate some great dinners and I slept like a fat kid. Apparently, my little bump decided it was time to make a more public appearance. I swear Thursday I woke up "publicly pregnant". It's surreal to have strangers recognize I'm preggers.
Along with enjoying the relaxation of Scottsdale, we headed up to Sedona. This picture of Boynoton Canyon does not even begin to do it justice. If you go, make sure to make a lunch or dinner reservation at Enchantment Resort. GORGEOUS!



It's not a trip to the West without a cowboy picture!






For the record, "dry heat" is still pretty damn hot. I underestimated this and after this morning walk on the mountain, the day at the pool, the heat and altitude, I was not doing too well. I was still a trooper though and hung in there through dinner. We had a fantastic meal at an Italian restaurant in Old Scottsdale. Yum. Then, put a fork in me....I was DONE!
