We went to Scottsdale AZ to celebrate Anita's 60th Bday last weekend... and it was awesome. Great food all around and fun times with people I love. Here are some pictures... They go backwards from the actual trip progression... I had some troubles with uploading them :)
One of the bday desserts Anita got.
The boys and their Starbucks...
I have a picture of the two of them at starbucks from every trip we go on. They are kindered cafeen addicts... but I love them :)
We did not eat here... so not sure if it lives up to the great name or not.
Fun times with statues
Kelsey, Sarah and I love to take pictures with statues! Enjoy :)
us with the bday girl!
This was after the flight... they popped some bubblie and made us mimosa's
this is when we were landing... it is funny b/c depending on where the wind takes you is where you land. So the guy flying it is in walkie talkie discussions with a guy on the ground telling them where we are headed and then they come meet us where we land.
we looked like ants compared to the balloons. I had no idea how large they actually got!
A and J up, up, up and away :)
This is how the hot air ballon starts... they guy picked Anita and me to be the lucky ones to be in the basket when the balloon goes up and flips the basket. It was fun times with Anita!
This was my dessert, called Horny Little Devil... it was like a gormet ding dong :)
This was the started Jerry and David both ordered at our first dinner at Mosaic... It was foie gras which they both love, but this was awesome b/c it was called What the Foie !#*... which I thought was Hi-larious!We had a great time, as we always do with A and J! Happy Birthday Anita. Here's to 60 more!

looks like an amazing time! love all the pix -- especially the devil dessert! :)
I love your pictures. I also love that there seems to be a theme among your vacation pix - yummy food and statues. :-) So fun!
so I am looking at the Horny Devil dessert which was yours and am wondering... how on earth does that thing have no sugar in it?!!!!!
Umm... this trip took place about 7 days before the no sugar pledge was stated in our office. As you can see from the pictures, we do indulge in the sugar and so this no sugar thing is not so fun.
Lol, yes we were able to get to B and Nee's for a real quick visit. They actually live about 5 minutes from where we did the hot air balloon trip. So we called them and they were about to leave with some friends that live on their street to bring the kids to Flagstaff to play in the snow... we asked them to hold off for a few minutes and we went over. We did not see the inside of their house or anything, just said hi and gave hugs to the kids and met some other people and chatted for about 10 minutes. We will have to plan another trip where we actually see all the family out there... Cousin's Laurel and Sheri did not get to see us at all and that was sad. :(
I miss you like crazy too!
there is a chance we may close the office down for a week in early may, if so... get ready for a visitor! I will keep you posted :)
I love me some Anita & Jerry! You can't go on a trip with them and not have the best time!
i love all the pictures! you have the best boss/friend ever!
