Blogmania...I hope you are sitting with a cup of coffee!

It has been a while since my last post...mainly because a lot of fun things have been going on. So get yourself a cup of coffee, settle in, and have an alternate window to pull up if your boss walks by unexpectedly...(I know what ya'll do at work)

Two weeks ago Michael and I decided to take a weekend getaway to Scottsdale, AZ mini dach in tow. After 6 hours in the car driving through a picturesque landscape and stopping every hour for Peanut to get out and sniff the air (not pee like we thought he would) we arrived in the hottest city on the planet! I know, I know...Probably not the hottest city on the planet but it sure felt like it. Scottsdale is not hot like Houston where the humidity is record setting so you sweat, but it cools you. Scottsdale is hot like an oven, extremely dry, and you can't escape it! But none of this matters because the whole reason we went to Scottsdale was for the shopping! Fashion Square Mall is one of the best malls I have ever been to. It has everything you could want, all in one place! Nordstrom, H&M, Crate & Barrel, and the most gorgeous Banana Republic (should have taken a pic, it was unbelievable). So, while I love ABQ after a year in this city, I was in desperate need of good shopping. We had a great time, ate great food (ZTejas, Nordstrom Cafe, North) and will be back soon...after my pocketbook has a break!
The misters everywhere where Michael's favorite part!
Scottsdale is full of Saguaro Cacti (what you would think a cactus looks like!)
