Sun and Fun in Scottsdale





We took a little mini vacation to Scottsdale, AZ last weekend to escape the rain in San Francisco. The weather in Scottsdale - sunny and low 80s - did not disappoint. We spent our days lounging by the pool (Malcolm's favorite), going down the waterslide, soaking in the hot tub (Wyatt's favorite) and playing with the many yard games around. We ended up not even leaving the resort! Wyatt and Malcolm, city kids that they are, got to see live bunny rabbits and ducks roaming the grounds. I said Wyatt's favorite was the hot tub but in actuality it was probably the crickets which were also a first for him. They were a bit confusing to him because we could only hear them and he never got to see one. My favorite part was the nightly trip out to the fire pit with Wyatt to listen for crickets and talk about all things on his mind..."mama, how do you like Arizona? What is Phoenix? Are we in Phoenix? Are we gonna sleep here? Have you ever seen a cricket?"
