Scottsdale Weekend

After a long weekend in Scottsdale, Gabe and I are back home feeling refreshed and relaxed. I spent most of my time relaxing by the pool, having breakfast in bed, reading, and going on long runs around the city. It was the perfect way to recharge before heading into the busy holiday season.
