When we booked a trip to Phoenix months ago for the end of May I was thinking that I wouldn't want to be leaving Seattle then (because it would be nice and sunny) and that Phoenix would be getting too hot......boy I was wrong on BOTH counts!
Seattle is still having dreary weather (unfortunately - raining hard right now) and Phoenix is having cooler weather (80s-mid 90s) while we were there, which was PERFECT weather.
We have now decided that we need to make this an annual trip!
Here are a few highlights...
Sunday we got to the resort around 10:30am and headed right to the water park as we waited for our rooms to be ready. It was a fun first day.
Our first night enjoying ourselves by the gas fireplaces in the resort lounging area.

The boys went golfing first thing in the morning and the girls spent the day lounging by the pool just below our room. There was a hot tub too. We had the pool to ourselves. It was so nice!
Monday night dinner at Rustler's Roost

A beautiful evening at dinner overlooking our resort.
We ate rattlesnake for an appetizer (we didn't eat this, it was just a garnish)
We really appreciated the sign for the women's bathroom......
A FUN night!

Tuesday - A hard day lounging by the pool.
Darin and Perry went golfing again. Amalea went for a massage and I got coffee and yogurt and headed straight for the pool. John & Renee took advantage of no kids and slept in. :-) We thought that we would go to the water park again after the guys got back from golfing, but we decided it was just too peaceful at the pool and too much work to move. LOL!
It was a perfect morning.......
With just the right accessories.....comfy chair, yummy coffee & a great book!
John enjoying the hot tub and Darin figured out that the TV worked, which made this area even better.
Our last dinner together.
Celebrating Renee's 40th!
Beautiful girl!!
After dinner we sat by the fire again and were having fun trying to find karaoke on Amalea's phone. It was quite a sight!
The guys were not so interested. Darin was looking for some app or something. The first night he found a star map app that was SO cool. You held up his phone and it told you what constellations you were looking at no matter where you moved the phone. Very cool!
This says it all for how we all felt......relaxed and connected. :-)
Thanks everyone for a wonderful trip!
Can't wait for next year!!
