Pictures from Grandpa's camera
First Arizona sunset.
She never stands that still for me!
With Daddy in front her beloved Camelback Mountain. For some reason she just thought that mountain was the coolest thing, and we could see it from everywhere in Scottsdale.
I love this picture because she always sits like that. And she loves having possession of the tickets.
So happy to be with Grandma.
Sunday in Arizona
Today we went for a nice long walk on the canal, met Grandma and Grandpa for breakfast at another favorite, Saddle Ranch Chop House (which I later found out was voted the number one place to pick up a one night stand in Arizona. Nifty.), then Mommy got some alone time to shop and meander while Daddy and Millie went swimming for three hours. Millie was literally in the water for over two and a half hours of that.
Since Millie has been going to bed at 10 p.m. and waking up at 6:30 a.m., we decided to skip nap today. Instead we went to a park with a playground and a gazillion geese. After dinner on the patio and ice cream with Grandpa, it was back to reality watching some crazy Republicans on T.V. Sigh. Bed time came early, for both Millie and Mommy.

Lunch at the Saddle Ranch.
Took her a while to warm back up to swings. This is the same swing she sat in at 9 months, her very first swing.
Favorite mode of transit.

Arizona Day... Oh heck, I've lost track
Today we were on our own for the morning, so after an early swim, we went to lunch at Dos Gringos and then a nice leisurely walk by a new waterfront development. I made sure and stop at one of my favorites, Olive + Ivy, for some late afternoon gelato.
Ready!
Ready!
They are not as pink in real life as it may appear in this photo. I promise.
Millie took this picture of me at lunch to prove that I was, in fact, along on this vacation. I think blurry is a good look for me.
Mmmm...fresh tortilla chips.
Another trolly! And in the background, "jungle trees."

Arizona Day 3
Yesterday began with a trip to the Train Park, then a lunch of Sprinkles cupcakes and frozen yogurt. Yum. After a nice swim at the pool with her new friend Maddie, Millie crashed for a couple of hours and Mom and Dad got to go out on a date.
If anyone is ever in Scottsdale, I highly recommend Blanco Tacos + Tequila. Amazing food, great service, and super hip yet relaxed atmosphere. Double Yum.

Arizona Day 2
There is a little known Arizona law that states you must visit Old Town Scottsdale at least once during your visit. We managed to leave without buying any souvenirs, which means we'll have to go back.
Frolicking in the fountains. Ah, to be young again.
One happy kid.
Praise the Lord, I am on vacation!
Getting close and personal with the art. Yes, that is a giant bronze pig.
