Phoenix 2013

After Thanksgiving, we caught a flight down to Phoenix to celebrate our 11th anniversary and enjoy some quiet time.  Dave has set some amazing fitness goals for himself in the last three weeks, which has resulted in him losing 24 pounds and also made him determined to stay on track the rest of the year.  I can honestly say I never imagined I would spend my vacation chasing my husband on speed walks through the desert or shopping for yoga pants ... for him!  We did have a nice time away, a few great meals, and a lap or two around the lazy river with a frozen drink in hand. 


I learned that first class is AMAZING!


The one and only walk I joined Dave on.  He walked 10 miles the next day.  I was glad I wasn't invited.


We got upgraded to a two-story casita at the hotel, which was great.  There were several private pools around the resort.


We ate fish tacos three times.  Two times we went to Rubios, which is one of my favorites in Phoenix.  We also went to Milagro Grill and had a great lunch one day.  We enjoyed our anniversary dinner at Tomaso's, which was some of the best pasta we have ever had.  


We spent all day Monday at the airport.  Longest day ever.  Our first plane had issues, so our three-hour flight ended up being more like five hours on the plane. Thankfully we stopped by The Good Egg before we left, so I didn't starve :)





We arrived back late Monday night and were both eager to get back to Omaha.  Sadly my car wouldn't start and I spent the entire morning waiting for roadside assistance.  On the upside, we got to skip two days of Elf on a Shelf.
