Weekly Recap

Happy New Year to all! After a low key evening, we went over to our friend Brandon's to ring in the new year with all of our closest friends.Since we were leaving for Scottsdale at 9 the next morning, we made it to midnight and then headed to bed!

I can't believe it's 2010. And I can't believe that in 2 months Clark and I are going to have a daughter. It's hard to believe but so exciting at the same time. I went to the doctor this morning and she said that I am measuring ahead. I think that means that I am looking at a big baby. Yay for big babies...

Here are a couple of pictures from New Years Eve.

On the Wednesday before NYE, we went to Mi Cocina to celebrate Haddy's Birthday since it is on Christmas Eve. As usual, she was sung to by the wait staff complete with sweet napkin/party hat.

We got to Scottsdale around noon so we had plenty of time to explore and get settled. The whole Phoenix/Scottsdale/Glendale area is very spread out so we really only kept to the main area the whole time. We had such a great weekend with our friends. Clark and Ryan played golf Saturday at Troon North and Sunday at the Phoenician. Lisa and I went to the spa on Saturday for my birthday :) We ate at The Tortilla Factory on Friday night and then we ate at Bobby's on Saturday night. Sunday, Michele and Lindsay came in town so we met up with them and went to Oregano's for lunch. When our waiter greeted us, I kept staring at him because he looked really familiar. Once he left the table, Lindsay agreed that she knew him from somewhere too. After some super sleuthing and some help from Wikipedia, we discovered that he was Alex from the Real World Denver! Another thing about Oreganos, the pizza cookie! OMG, amazing. Sarah, Alli and Brooke all recommended that we go to Oreganos and I was told consistently that the pizza cookie was a must. It was a semi cooked peanut butter and chocolate chip cookie, straight out of the oven and covered in ice cream. A pregnant lady's dream.

The girls at Oreganos, see pizza cookie remains (or lack there of) on the table.

On Monday morning, we went to The Breakfast Club to have Brunch for my birthday. I was so excited because on the menu they have jalapeno and cheese biscuits with sausage gravy. I was However, I was sad to learn that they were out of the biscuits because of the popularity among TCU fans that morning. Very sad but I was still not disappointed in my meal.

Next up, was the game. Here are pics of us tailgating and in the stadium. After the devastating loss, we turned to In and Out Burger to console us. Despite the loss, Scottsdale was a lot of fun and we enjoyed being in Arizona with our friends!

Clark's first bite of In and Out Burger! He loved it.

Hope everyone has a fabulous week!
