As usual, we Larson's made our annual summer fun trip to Scottsdale Arizona. People often ask us why we like to go their in the summer time. Here are our top five reasons:
1. The Fairmont Scottsdale Princess....the best resort we have ever stayed at, where when you drive up, they always say....."Welcome Home"....and to us it is.
2. Shopping. Even having lived in San Diego (where there is awesome shopping) Scottsdale has some great shopping in just a five mile radius of the resort. We have our routine mapped out and know where we want to go. Love, Love, Love to shop there.
3. Food. This has moved up on our list every since we relocated. The fast food place we had loved in California, are not in New Mexico, but thank goodness they are in Arizona. The kids have specific places they want to go and we make sure to hit them.
4. Swimming. Okay that might seem silly, but this has been the first time that my kids have swam all summer. Not a lot of people have pools her in NM, and the public pools are crowded. In Scottsdale, the kids are in the pool at 8 A.M. and then out usually around 11 P.M. They love playing with their Dad in the pool. (p.s. no one gets burnt, we take them out at about 10, and then back in at about 3)
5. Friends. Scottsdale is not too far from San Diego and thank goodness for good friends. Jamie came out to see us while we were there. Thank goodness that Jake and Shauna live close by so she was able to see them and make a day trip to see us. It made my summer to see her! Thanks Jamie, your the best.
One final note.....my camera died there...I was so bummed.
We were able to spend James' birthday there, and I don't think he could have had a better b-day. He read several books by the pool, and as many of you know he loves to shop and he did!!! Love you James Happy Birthday.
