Cameron and I took a romantic getaway to Sedona this weekend. Two nights away from Liberty - which hasn't happened since she was 8 months old! She's usually our road trip sidekick - but this time my mom (Mom-Mom to Liberty) babysat her and she did great. We left at 3pm on Friday and returned 2pm on Sunday and had such a good time relaxing in Sedona and pigging out as usual. We took a day-trip babymoon to Sedona when pregnant with Liberty so it was fun to go down memory lane and talk about our growing family. Sedona is such a special place to us - way back to dating, celebrating the evening we got engaged 8 years ago and more.
We had a grown up dinner when we arrived at ENCHANTMENT RESORT and enjoyed the heck out of that resort. The next day was dictated by meals:)
Breakfast at Che ah chi at the Resort (privious night dinner spot)
Lunch at L'Auberge resort - I've always wanted to eat creekside there!
Dinner at Elote Cafe - the local favorite that has a line out the door prior to opening at 5 - we got in, barely.
Dessert at Cucina Rustica - our usual dinner spot, we at least had to visit for a quick stop.
Then, a surprise STARGAZING adventure Cameron planned - with an astronomer and a telescope, and the most starry filled sky I've ever seen. Best husband in the galaxy;)
The next day we headed to the Anthem Outlets for some shopping and then to Barrio Cafe for lunch in Phoenix (another local, no reservations, hotspot I've been wanting to experience for ages).
Then back to my beautiful baby girl. THANKS MOM for making this memorable trip possible.

Play Hard
Meet "Amberly" - a rat from IKEA that get's a lot of special treatment from Liberty - including lunch everytime we have lunch:) And a few of Amberly's friends...
Meet Liberty - who really cut loose at preschool making homemade ice cream and looked so disheveled when I picked her up I had to snap a picture when we got home (and this is with somewhat fixed up hair!) Shaking that ice cream bag around was hard work and then eating it was a drippy mess too I guess:) - but someone has got to do it.
Meet Rain - and our flooded back patio. An excuse to get out all the rain gear we own - which is very little.

Labor Day Weekend - Flagstaff, Bearzona
My camera's battery died a few minutes into our BEARZONA outing - so I only have a few pictures of Liberty cracking up with Grandpa and some phone pictures from Grandma and a watermelon-cousin picture from a cookout. It was a good family filled weekend - lots of puzzles (Lib's latest craze) and playing outside at parks in the 70* weather. So nice to have Grandparents in Flagstaff and the 1on1 time that Liberty looks forward to. It was also great seeing everyone together for a cookout at my sisters house (both parents and my sister's family).
