Our private pool in Phoenix
My little backyard friend-without-a-tail
I turned this H & M skirt into a dress. It kept me cool in the 35 degree weather!
I think some people thought I was pregnant though. I was getting funny looks at Walmart.
Beautiful Sedona
Gorgeous, right?
I know this photo is on the verge of being cheesy (or it's already there) but I swear we didn't plan this pose, this was the only decent photo of the two of us!
That's my mom! This dress is from Charlotte Russe. I got it in Vegas a couple of years ago.
We climbed a hill in Sedona and this was our view - Nicolas Cage's vacation home.
Do you see his hair piece floating in the pool? Look closely. I kid, I kid!

At the top of the hill was this absolutely beautiful and peaceful church. All churches are peaceful but this one was extra calming. Can you imagine coming here every Sunday? Look at that breathtaking view! Even an atheist would enjoy a service here!
We ate mostly Mexican food while we were in the states because it's so good down there!
My top is from Target which is one of my new favorite stores! I LOVED IT!
I had a wonderful time in Arizona. The weather was beautiful - 32-38 degrees Canadian every day - so we spent a lot of time relaxing and cooling off by the pool. The people were extremely friendly, the views outstanding, the food was delicious and the shopping unreal! I can't wait to show you my finds in my upcoming posts!
I hope you all had a great week!

Marie, it looks like you guys had a WONDERFUL time there! All the pictures are gorgeous, what kind of camera do you use?
love the turning the maxi skirt into a dress :)

Sisi: I use a Nikon D3000. I've had it for about a year and I'm JUST learning how to use the manual setting ; ) I'm a slow learner!
Yay! Makes me want to go back right now. LOVED Pheonix. I cannot believe y'all don't have a Target. I would not survive without a Target, it's the best!
wow, it such a different landscape than what I'm used to seeing here. definitely a great getaway! nice to see you back, Marie! Can you post more pictures??? :D

I live in Arizona and the one thing I love it the warm weather. Sedona is very pretty. You look great in the pictures.
you, the location and food looks amazing! Love your pictures. I wanna go there now!
OMG. My heart is beating faster. My palms are sweaty. I LOVE ARIZONA. I logged onto my computer just so I could comment on your post.
It's beautiful. Amazing. The heat is wonderful. So is the scenery. Sedona is lovely, but the thing I hate about it is that everything shuts down SO early. Did you find that too? Also, did you see a lot of little backyard friends? I'm curious, because one of my friends lived in Arizona for a summer and she said the place was swarming with them. Covering entire parking lots and whatnot. That seems a bit excessive, but I've only been there in the winters really, so who knows...
Oh how I wish I was there right now. I'm excited to see the rest of your posts! Also, glad you had a safe trip!
Ashley: Ha ha, you're too funny! We took a day trip to Sedona, and then Jerome so we were only there in the afternoon...That's too bad everything shuts down so early! Maybe because there are a lot of retired people there and they go to bed early??? ha
We saw at least two gecko's every day in the backyard. They mostly stuck to the wall of the fence but a couple were crawling around by the pool and it kind of freaked me out!
This looks like sooo much fun! I would love to go to Arizona again, it's gorgeous, hot and looks like a lot of fun. I am jealous of the shopping you got to do, I really love target and I can't wait until our zellers turn into targets here!
