scottsdale babymoon
i just returned from a weekend in scottsdale with jocelyn. and like my aunt said "i dont think you know what a 'babymoon' means", it wasnt the traditional husband and wife situation. but i didnt want to fly too far, craig and i just vacationed to southern california last month, and scottsdale (with its spa and shopping) didnt really seem like a couples thing. so next best thing? JOCELYN.
our first night there, we stuuuuuuuuffed ourselves at culinary dropout.
the next morning we headed over to our resort's spa. we got massages and goofed around taking selfies in the "quiet room".
the montelucia has a fabulous spa but it was very holistic. we had to touch this huge crystal and close our eyes to make a wish. i had a hard time with it. jocelyn loved it. :)
after our massages and close encounter with the light-up crystal we lounged around at the spa pool.
pina colada time!
the beautiful grounds.

that night we had a great dinner at blanco. all 21 dollars of it.

the next morning was more pool and more pina coladas.
that afternoon we met up with rebecca (who lives in gilbert and is so sweet and fun) to get our hair braided at a braid bar. we also had sweet tooth fairy and cafe rio. bonus.  
later that night, jocelyn and i drove back to scottsdale and had ice cream at the sugar bowl. very retro of us. our friend between us wasnt feeling it.
on our last day we sat by the pool, shopped a bit and had grimaldis pizza. the perfect day.
with the perfect best friend. ok, baby! im ready... in about 6 weeks or so. :)
