Sedona, Arizona

I can't believe how long it's taken me to blog about Ryan & I's big trip!! This was such a big trip that it's going to take me several posts. I hope you don't mind. :)

We actually got back from our trip to Kansas City on a Sunday, worked Monday & Tuesday, and then left for Sedona Wednesday morning!!

Ryan & I's good friends, Mark & Brittney, invited us awhile back to Brittney's Aunt's vacation home in Sedona, Arizona. We were thrilled because nei

ther of us had ever been to Arizona. This was the big trip that that I wanted to lose weight for and didn't lose a single pound. Ugg.

Mark, Ryan & I flew out of Houston to Phoenix together, and Brittney met us there. She was coming from California because of work. Here's Ryan with our HUGE bag. It was right at 50 pounds, poor thing. The bag looks much bigger in person.

We were all starving by the time we landed and got our luggage. We decided to hit up Denny's because Brittney has never eaten there before. What!!? I had to introduce her! I love breakfast food. Doesn't this look delish??
This might just be Brittney's new fav...
We rented a car to drive the two hours from Phoenix to Sedona. This is Brittney & I holding down the fort in the backseat.
When we drove up to the house my jaw literally hit the floor. Was I on an episode of Cribs??
Did I die and go to Heaven?? The part of the house you see to the left above the garages is the guest house. And that is where Ryan & I got to stay!!
The house was freaking on a mountain over looking Sedona! It was nestled back in this quaint cul-de-saq.
To die for views.

Here's a more complete view of the house and you can better see the setting it's in. Unreal.

This is the cross walk connecting the main part of the house to "our" guest house. :)
I'm going to save showing you all the main part of the house for another post. There are just too many photos!

I'll start by showing you Ryan & I's diggs. Right when you walk in, it's a very large open living space. It included a nice kitchen area, living room and dining. There was even a Wii! Brittney's Aunt thought of everything!
Very nicely decorated.
Ryan & I's bedroom. I LOVED the leopard print carpets. I would totally rock those in my house if I could.
The sitting area in the bedroom with gorgeous views.
Our own private wrap around deck. I thought I was on our second honeymoon!

I still have so much more to show you of the house and the rest of our trip. So just sit back and relax because this may take awhile. ;)
