Last year for the first time we went to Sedona over Labor Day weekend with Joey and Rachael and Ryan and Kristin - some of our closest, dear friends! We had so much fun that we decided to all take a trip together each year. And since Ben, Juliann, and Emmerson recently moved back to Flagstaff we included them in the fun. This year instead of Sedona, we went to Anthem and rented out a 5 bedroom house with a pool! It was so fantastic! It was like a 4 day hangout time. We all bought groceries for and cooked two meals each. The rest of the time we could relax and hang out! I didn't take too many pictures but here are a few!
We played some volleyball and passed the football back and forth in the pool
This was the first time that Ember has ABSOLUTELY LOVED being in a pool. That was all she wanted to do when she was awake and she would constantly say "Ember so happy!" while she was in it!

Kristin R brought supplies to do French tip manicures for all of us girls! And she was kind enough to paint Ember's nails for the first time with sparkly glitter! Ember loved looking at them the rest of the weekend.
Every morning, we would see hot air balloons as we were enjoying our coffee in the early morning!
This weekend went by so fast and was such a blast! We all said we could live there for a whole lot longer together! Can't wait till next year!
What a fun weekend getaway and such a fun tradition. Those are fun!
ReplyDeleteHow fun waking up to a hot air balloon in the sky! So neat! Love Ember's swim suit...pretty sure I have mentioned this before! That pool looks fabulous! And how cute, the thought of Ember's little finger nails painted! That was sweet of Kristin!
