Sedona Trip 2017

Last week I was up in Sedona for a work conference that I have been lucky enough to go to for almost every year for the past 5 years. One year it was in Prescott but HERE are my posts from prior trips to Sedona. The girls have come before but the past couple of years it has just been hard for us to both do that and arrange for someone to watch the dogs so I have gone up by myself. Last year I started to get into it, but this year I really tried to take full advantage of all of the hiking opportunities. It is so beautiful up in Sedona and I just love being up there. It is soooo different from Phoenix and yet it is only a little over an hour away from our house. Wednesday morning when I was up there I went for a quick 5k before lifting at the hotel gym and it was completely foggy out. It was very low visibility but I was just running in the golf course neighborhood attached to the hotel so there was no traffic or anything. It was pretty crazy to run in. It rained every day I was up there but the storms are so cool up there. It was a great trip and I hope I am able to go again next year!

Sedona Trip

Last week I went up to Sedona for a couple of days for a work conference. Last year Justin and the girls came up as well (here) but this year it was too hard since we had just gone on vacation so I went up by myself. I definitely missed the girls (thank you facetime) but it was nice to have the time to myself. I got caught in some REALLY hard rain on the drive up which was not fun in my Prius, but once I got up it was so nice and cool. I just love being up there. I also got up early one morning before the conference started and got in a hike to Devils Bridge. I had never done it before and went completely by myself. There was not even anyone else on the trail because I went so early, which was a little weird at times because I wasn't sure if I was going the right way, but it was so beautiful at the top. Sedona is awesome and I am so glad I got the chance to go again this year. Here are some pictures and a little video from my hike:

 

Had to use the self-timer to get this picture!

Sedona Video

I already posted about our quick trip to Sedona HERE but I finally got around to compiling a little video from our trip. I didn't have a ton of footage but I think it still turned out cute. It is so pretty up there!

Sedona!

Last week I was able to go to a conference in Sedona for work. Justin and the girls came up to enjoy the hotel and surroundings as well. I hate being away from them so it was a win-win. The conference is held at the Hilton Sedona which is a beautiful resort. The rooms are suites which is perfect because Aspen was able to sleep in her own room. That way we didn't wake her up when we got ready to workout or watching T.V. before bed. Our room was right by the pool which Everly loved. She kept asking to go swimming. It was just really nice to be away from the normal office routine for a few days.
