Sedona vacation

After trying to find the best place to travel to for a vacation we realized that instead of traveling for 2+ hours, we can just get in the car, head down to Sedona, and enjoy a wonderful day in one of the most beautiful places in the world. It was well worth it!

the Hotel

we got a king suite, which had two rooms and lots of space!

The View

This was the view from our room windows, the creek and the pool, with our very own door straight out to it

First thing is first. POOL TIME! We spent the next two days in the pool!

During this trip Ophek lost all fear of the water and was like a little fish. She spent the entire day in the pool, diving, learning how to swim, and just splashing around having a great time

under water fun!

Matar and Ophek by the pool. Matar said she was cold (even though it was about 29c) and went with saba to the jacuzzi

Matar and Saba enjoying the hot tub

fun in the sun

we spent the whole day in the pool not realizing it got late until Matar got tired

Time for dinner (and more getting wet)

Time for dinner

But before then, a quick fun run through the sprinklers

Creek side hike

after dinner we went for a short walk along the creek, we met ducks, and enjoyed the beautiful scenery

After the walk along the creek we just had to get in. It was cold but beautiful and well worth it

Its been a long day spent in the water and sun and the girls are tired and ready for bed

and passed out!

Good morning, time for breakfast

the girls waiting for their food

 food arrives

after breakfast we went down to the pool

and spent the rest of the day there, until it was time to go home

saying goodbye to our beautiful view. Its time to go back home

While we load the car the girls found some sprinklers and one more opportunity to get soaking wet before we head home

very tired, on the way home

Last day of preschool

 Ophek's last day picnic at her pre school. She will be in kindergarten next year!

proud saba!!!

 saying goodbye to her teachers and friends

Mommy and Ophek time

When Matar naps mommy and Ophek do something special together. Today we made bead necklaces. Thanks Lirona for the great gift!

Market time

Saba is here and everyone is off to the Sunday market

4H at the Sunday market. Needless to say this was the BEST market ever!

Moran's 33rd B day party

 Even though it appears like Ophek's birthday, on Friday June 8th I celebrated my 33rd! It was lots of fun with great friends. And the best part, my dad was there!!!

A beautiful avocado cacao cake my friend Carolyn made. It didnt only look good, it was delicious!

Time for blowing out the candles !

after traveling 10,000 miles especially for this we forgot it was Saba Uri's birthday too. But, he quickly reminded us and we corrected that with his very own birthday song.
It was a great party!~

Refurnishing

No, this isnt a new bunk bed. The girls are just enjoying the refurnishing as we get the room ready for Saba Uri

The bike train

This is how we roll!

Growing season !

the growing season is here and its time to weed the yard! Ophek and mommy off to work
