Arizona!

I’ll be posting more images from the actual convention later once I’ve shared them on DWF (Digital Wedding Forum) but I wanted to post a few that we managed to capture just for fun. We spent most of our time in class while in Arizona but we did manage to venture out a bit our last day there. What a gorgeous place…and the weather…I nearly cried at the airport knowing what we had to come back to.

The first pic I took from the roof top patio attached to our villa.

The hubs took this shot of me whilst testing his new found skill…”foofing”. Don’t ask. While I understand and like the technique a great deal the term leaves much to be desired. And, yes, that is red wine in that glass. Organic, non-sulfite red. FOOD of the GODS. ; )

My Rock Star Hubs. Can you see all the yick in the air? I shook a hand towel and to my dismay it was snowing in Arizona.

Goofing around, as usual. Good times. ; )

Playing with our iPhones and long exposures. Weeeeee!

On the road again…

Just off the road…we pulled over to snag a shot. Black is slimming, no? Say yes. This, by the way, is my hiking outfit. Ballet flats are perfect for scaling rocky, cactus and brush filled inclined pathways. Of all the pairs of shoes I managed to pack, sneaks were not one of them. Duh.

This is the position I was in to snag the shot above. I so need an Indian name, like “Squats in the Brush” (which, by the way, was very prickly).

At 5′ 4″ this is the only way my legs will look long.

I chased this little hummingbird around for awhile before he decided to stay put long enough for me to grab a shot.
