We headed up Saturday morning. We were blessed to find the last of our baby items on Craigslist and stopped to pick them up when we arrived in Phoenix. It's such a relief to have a few more items checked off the "to-do" list before Baby Girl makes her arrival.
Saturday afternoon we made a trip to Safeway to pick up some groceries for our stay and we made a quick stop at Starbucks for some green tea...mmmmm.
What did we do the rest of the weekend? Well, Sunday we enjoyed some time poolside and an amazing dinner with friends, Monday we took a trip to the Salt River and enjoyed some time reading, singing and generally enjoying nature and the pleasure of each others' company. Tuesday we had a doctor's appointment (so exciting, I know) and ran a few more errands before enjoying our anniversary dinner and heading back to home sweet home.
Below are some photos from our trip to the Salt River:
Before heading out, there was an obligatory stop at Starbucks for some beverages (green tea for me, caramel frappe for Joel).
Our lovely, refreshing view down by the river.
Enjoying the peace and quiet (I read my book and listened). :D
It was a time of much needed refreshing. Sadly, I'm already ready for another getaway; this past week has been stressful!
Please continue praying for us!
Blessings.
you and Joel deserved the short get-away.
