Anniversary and Birthdays

August is a very busy month with our Wedding Anniversay (August 11) along with my birthday (August 22) and Eric's (August 24).  We decided to get away for a few days this year for our 7th anniversary.  We found a great deal for The Boulders, Waldolf Astoria, in Scottsdale, Arizona.  We were lucky that my dad and Ruby could come down to watch the kids.  Enjoy!


This was inside the beautiful spa.  I had a wonderful facial.


This was our gorgeous view right outside of our room.  Lots of fun trails all around as well.


Our hotel room, or casita.  It was nice to have much more space than in a regular hotel room.


After the spa, while Eric was golfing on their four star course, I relaxed by the pool with the beautiful back drop.  That is a water fountain coming out of the rock.


Another gorgeous view of our surroundings.


This was a golf tee right by our casita.  You had to hit the ball over the lake.  If you were really good there was another tee just above this one, higher up.



While we were gone, my dad and Ruby had a blast with the kids.  They got to take and watch Kinley at gymnastics and then onto Chuck E Cheese.

The kids also enjoyed long bubble baths.  With mommy and daddy, their baths tend to be short and sweet.


Unfortunately, Kinley had her teacher meet and greet while we were gone.  Grandma and Grandpa took her and sent us these pictures.


Meeting Mrs. Seldner for the first time.


The kids begged me to bake a birthday cake (with their help) for myself simply so they sing "Happy Birthday" while I blew out the candles.


For Eric's birthday, two days later, we opted for his favorite cupcakes (from Freeds Bakery).


He even got to blow a candle out.
