I was so excited to go because I was traveling with friends this time.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.kmphotographyweddings.com\" target=\"_blank\">Kris<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.krishamartzall.com\" target=\"_blank\">Krisha<\/a> and I left in the wee hours of the morning to fly out.  We arrived in Phoenix pretty early and rented a car so we didn&#8217;t have to rely on a ride.  It was a nice 45 minute drive to the resort where we were staying, but since none of had ever been to Arizona, we took a few detours, ate lunch, got our nails done and then checked in and met up with <a href=\"http:\/\/www.chelseaelizabeth.com\" target=\"_blank\">Chelsea<\/a>.  We had a room the size of a small apartment, full kitchen and patio.  I was in heaven!  Plus, the weather totally beat the 15 degrees we have now.  It was a very relaxing but educational trip.  We made new friends, reminisced with old, sat by the campfire every night and roasted marshmallows with Lance and swam under the stars.<br \/>\nI didn&#8217;t shoot as much as I would have liked to, but I was taking a much needed break.  I  went out our last day there with my friend <a href=\"http:\/\/www.jpgphotography.com\" target=\"_blank\">Joe G<\/a>.  We drove up the road a bit and stop at the Indian Village.  It was a roadside taco stand and shop.  I had the best Guacamole and Chimicanga&#8217;s and only have a few marks left from the attack of the Cactus.  I am so surprised none of us came home with too many battle scars.   Enjoy!  <\/p>\n<p>Off my patio<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/lesliegilbert.goodgallery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/326.jpg\"><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/lesliegilbert.goodgallery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/359.jpg\"><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/lesliegilbert.goodgallery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/367.jpg\"><\/p>\n<p>Our Villa<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/lesliegilbert.goodgallery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/395.jpg\"><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/lesliegilbert.goodgallery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/405.jpg\"><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/lesliegilbert.goodgallery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/417.jpg\"><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/lesliegilbert.goodgallery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/424.jpg\"><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/lesliegilbert.goodgallery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/436.jpg\"><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/lesliegilbert.goodgallery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/444.jpg\"><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/lesliegilbert.goodgallery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/453.jpg\"><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/lesliegilbert.goodgallery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/463.jpg\"><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/lesliegilbert.goodgallery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/482.jpg\"><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/lesliegilbert.goodgallery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/513.jpg\"><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/lesliegilbert.goodgallery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/521.jpg\"><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/lesliegilbert.goodgallery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/551.jpg\"><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/lesliegilbert.goodgallery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/573.jpg\"><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/lesliegilbert.goodgallery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/photo.jpg\"><\/p>\n<p>Sorry ladies for the horrible quality iphone photo, but this is one of the only ones of all of us together&#8230;.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last week, My travels took me to Phoenix Arizona for our annual DWF convention at the Carefree Resort.
