Staycation


We decided to try something new this summer in terms of vacationing so we took a drive maybe 2o minutes south to a pretty little resort and stayed for a couple of days. When we pulled in to the hotel, both girls spotted the waterfall and just gushed, "This is the best place ever!" Whew! Good thing we didn't waste our money on some exotic destination like Hawaii. Phoenix is just as nice...right??? Anyway, the girls very much enjoyed the pools and the water slide. It was nice to eat out and not have to wash dishes or clean up. We might have to make this an annual event.



The morning we left we went to IHOP for the first time, which Gracie calls HipHop. Both girls ordered huge plates of pancakes, filling their bellies for the long ride home.

The pictures are wonderful!
I'm so envious your staycation entailed heat. We've had such a rainy summer here you would think it was the west coast. I here the west coast has had our summer - heat wave, hot and dry. Ugh!
