Friday In Five- San Diego

This week was wrapped up in lots of sunshine, and  inspiration with my hubby,  and a new love for a new city.....Sunny San Diego was simply beautiful from every angle.

Exploring new places with my love for our Anniversary is one of my favorites, and I truly feel like a change of scenery every once in awhile opens our mind to new thoughts and inspiration and makes our relationship that much stronger. We celebrated 13 years this week and I feel so blessed to be doing life with this man.

Our trip was full of exploring, taking in the scenery and no itinerary. I hope to share more from our trip soon, but for now I leave you with five of my favorites from my iPhone this week. Happy Friday!!

She Travels:: A Few Faves From NYC

Finally going through images from my girls trip to NYC with two of my favorite girls!  I seriously didn't want our trip to end. This was my second trip to the Big Apple and I explored the city and a whole new way with two of the most genuine and caring people I know. We got lost together, we laughed at ourselves the entire trip and simply took in the beauty of life with a smile and no sense of time for three days. As I relive every moment of our trip through photos, I realize just how blessed I am to be able to do life with such amazing friends!

We headed to the Chelsea area on Saturday and stumbled upon a cute little pastry shop for coffee and a sweet treat. It was delicious and very cute. La Maison du Macoron

We loved taking a stroll on the High Line and taking in the views of the city, along with the lovely gardens. "Love Is The Answer" was along the way.

Taking in all the architectural details in the city was one of my favorites!

I was able to get some beautiful shots of the city while on our cruise to the Statue of Liberty. Such a fun venture! We even took the Ferry to Staton Island on accident. 

       She was a beauty! 

 

 Crumb Bake Shop had us all smiles, we even enjoyed cupcakes in our Hotel at midnight.

A visit to the World Trade Center was a very emotional one.

Central Park was oh so lovely! We took a carriage ride through the park, and I didn't want it to end.

Travel:: Family At Disney World

I hope you had a fabulous weekend!  I planned to share a part of our Disney trip with you last week, but didn't get to it. I figured I would start the week off with a few of our favorite photos from Magic Kingdom.

Our day started at around 9:00am and didn't end until after 11:00pm. It was definitely a magical experience, from the time we walked into the park to the time we left it's truly a dream come true. All the shows, parades, rides and so many Disney characters throughout our adventure. Being that this was our first trip to Disney World, theirs a few things we would do different the next go around.  I seriously can't wait to take my boys back again and celebrate the dream all over again!! The memories at  Disney World were simply MAGICAL!

My youngest couldn't take the fire works!! To loud! 

Travel:: Pensacola Beach Florida

Our Spring break getaway was one full of a long road trip, relaxation, playing in sand along the Pensacola Beach and a trip to Disney World with my three favorite boys.  We decided to break up our road trip by stopping for a stay at Pensacola Beach to enjoy some fun in the sun! My boys had a blast in the white sand.  After a day in Pensacola it was on to Kissimmee Florida to enjoy all things Disney! I will share a bit of Disney at the end of the week!

Oh the joys of living in the moment!

I love this photo that my oldest took of the hubby and I even though I am squinting like crazy... This is so going in our vacation book!

 The sunset was simply beautiful!

Travel: Arizona|Sanctuary on Camelback Mountain Resort

A week ago I took the time to pack my bags for a girls getaway weekend to Arizona for some relaxation time, tucked in to the mountains at Sanctuary On Camelback Resort with one of my besties to celebrate her 35th birthday.  My best friend decided for her 35th she wanted a relaxing few days, taking in the scenery and just enjoying down time. With two kids of her own and busy work in the medical field, that doesn't come easy for her. We arrived in Arizona on a Thursday to wonderful weather. When we arrived at the house that afternoon, we fell in love and didn't want to leave the entire weekend. We did venture out to the Mall and for an evening of dancing on Friday and the rest of the time was spent at the resort taking in the view, with lots of wine, poolside. We also managed to get in a little Zenga/Yoga.

 

 

 

I love this girl! It's hard to believe we have been friends since middle school. Time sure does fly! We have grown up together, grown apart at some point and always seem to pickup where we left off!

 

We stayed in the fabulous Gallery House on the Resort. I completely fell in love with this place, and have been dreaming of going back.  

 

We had our own private pool..

 

                                                                      Amazing views from all over the house.

I was inspired by the gallery wall in the house, along with this sofa! FABULOUS!!

 

 

"P" was rocking her floppy hat most of the weekend!

 

Precious &  her sweet friend Jennifer

 

I loved having a private porch off my room...

This last pic was from my phone our last morning in the mountains.

 

 What a wonderful weekend!! Being surrounded by God's beauty in different places is such a delight!
