"Summer" Vacation

I'm sure everyone who lives outside the Midwest is really tired of hearing Midwesterners complain about the weather this season. But seriously...it sucks. So, needless to say, we were really looking forward to escaping the unpredictable/cold/miserable/rainy weather in IL in favor of some nicer weather in AZ. We spent two days in the Flagstaff area, which is one of my favorite places in the country. Smells like pine trees, reminds me of summer camp, feels homey and outdoorsy at the same time...I love it there. BUT, it was definitely too chilly for swimming, so we all trekked back "down the hill" (as the natives say) to enjoy some pool time in Scottsdale.

We certainly were busy bees! Here are some photo highlights:
