A Night Away!

The Alston's gave us a night away at the Scottsdale Marriott. It was so fun! We dropped off the kiddos to Josh and Amelia at 5:30pm last night and took off. We dropped off our stuff and checked in and went to my favorite restaurant, The Cheesecake Factory... yum! We had Thai Lettuce Wraps (totally recommend having these sometime in you life!), I tried Chicken Costaletto and it was so good. Johnny had our fav... Chicken Madiera. We got Godiva Chocolate Cheesecake to go because we were so full (which is all 7 kinds of Godiva chocolate in one lucious, irresistable slice of heaven on Earth! Must try!) . There weren't any good movies playing so we went back to the hotel and ate cheesecake and watched "The Proposal". Very cute romantic comedy! This morning we went out to breakfast and picked up the kids and resumed the role of parents once again. We recommend a night away to everyone. Very fun! Thank you Alston family!

Here we are at the fountain at the front of Marriott... just before a huge thunder and lightening storm! We just made it before it started to come down!














Here is the front of our hotel.
