Saturday was our anniversary, and we spent the weekend at The Sanctuary in Scottsdale. Thanks to our friend Alex, an assistant manager at the resort, we got the friends and family rate and got to enjoy this beautiful resort!
We took Isaac along for a family staycation, and although we didn't get to do quite everything we wanted to, we still had a wonderful time together relaxing and enjoying each other away from the daily routine. We had a 1,000 square foot casita all to ourselves, complete with a kitchenette, living and dining room, master bedroom and beautiful bathroom - which had a deep bathtub that I enjoyed very much.
Here are some pictures from the weekend...
Our lovely casita
This chair was really comfy... if it was winter it would be a perfect place to sit by the fire and read a good book with a hot cup of coffee.... and a brownie (or two).
I love this picture. Isaac was about as excited to check things out as we were!
Okay, Isaac... show us around! (This is the most common view we get of him these days. He's always busy going somewhere...)
The kitchen looks good... where's my snack?
Ooooh, nice bed! It was oh-so-comfy. Too bad it didn't fit in our suitcase, we were tempted to smuggle it home...
Isaac thought it was comfy too...
... but that didn't last for long before he got in a tickle match with Daddy.
So much fun!
I love this place!
The next day, we spent the day relaxing around the resort before going to the Scottsdale Fashion Center for an outing.
Our view from the patio... too bad it was too hot to sit outside. Pretty nonetheless!
Complimentary flip flops!
We waited until the sun was low in the sky before heading to the pool. It worked out great because we had the pool all to ourselves while everyone else was out to dinner.
... and saved us from sunburns. 
This is the view from the luxurious casas higher up.

We didn't get to go out for a nice dinner or get the traditional "anniversary portrait" but that's okay. We're planning a night out soon (just the two of us) ... As far as anniversary weekends go, we really enjoyed our undivided family time together at The Sanctuary.
