mlk weekend

mlk weekend has turned into a getaway weekend for us. last year we went down to my dad's in sierra vista and just relaxed..watched both seasons of rome (hbo series), did some wine tasting in elgin, and toured tombstone. it was a great weekend except that during the wine tasting i almost passed out from the smell of this red wine...later i realized i was pregnant and from then on i couldn't even smell red wine! this year we escaped to sedona.

dave has a core group of friends from college and they've gotton together in the past for weekend trips, but this time it was a trip for all families-and it was great. unfortunately, we were only able to stay a day and a half, but the trip up to sedona was worth it. while i understand that the boys like to "get away" and be boys every once in a while, i was excited that they put together a family trip! (wifes are fun too, right?)

some photo highlights..

even though i am an introvert i love being surrounded by community and people..especially people who care about you and treat your family like your own.
