Obviously these photos suck.
Colton already went downstairs to gamble so I had to work with what I had, an iPhone and a closet mirror.
Oh, and HAPPY FREAKING FRIDAY!
Today I'll be recapping the second half of last week's staycation.
Actually, no. I wrote this post last night because today I will getting off work at 3pm and taking a nap.
And by recapping, I mean showing you a bunch of photos because I'm feeling super tired and uncreative.
That, my friend, is the beauty of the "Schedule" button on Blogger.
Here we go:
Colton and I woke up bright and early on Saturday to do a little gambling.
And by bright and early, I mean 10am.
I refuse to do anything but play Deuces Wild on video poker machines while at casinos.
After winning losing some money we decided to call it quits and head down to the pool:
I must have missed the memo that I'm now dating a hardcore gangsta boi.
The words "hardcore" and "boi" should probably never be used in the same sentence ever again.
Relaxation at it's finest. Notice how no one is in the pool?
That changed fairly quickly.
Here's the view of the pool party from our room. So much fun!
But then I noticed everyone started hopping out of the pool and running for cover. It may or may not have had something to do with this:
A haboob! No, the world is not coming to an end. It's just basically a really freaking huge dust storm. The day after a haboob car washes are jam packed and people are outside cleaning their pools. AKA, they suck.
In the midst of the haboob. This was literally 5 minutes after I took the photo of the pool party and everyone had cleared out.
Later that night we got all gussied up to go the club on the 14th floor of the resort.
It has some of the best views in Phoenix.
I love it.
My cousin Justin and I.
Dranking my new favorite drank: Gin & Tonic with extra lime. Ob. Sessed.
Sunday morning we ordered room service and watched the Harry Potter movie marathon. It was magical. (no pun intended)
I hope you all have a fabulously fantastic weekend.
I'll see you back here on Monday!

Your outfit is stunning! I can't wait til I'm not fat (aka pregnant) anymore so I can dress cute again. I used to love gin and tonics! My fave drink ever...until one night I ended up with my head hanging out my friend's car window on the way home from the bars. Haven't had one since. :)
You are too cute!! Love the outfit!

Holy Mylanta!! I think I just found a huge new fear- HABOOBS!! That's just crazy.
Looks like a fun weekend!! Haboob?? Crazy! Never heard of this.
sounds like such a fun weekend, love your outfit!
The word "haboob" just had me giggling like a 12 year old boy. I am mature. But holy crap! That thing is intense! I think I would run in terror.
Seriously, you are so pretty it's ridiculous.
Looks like you guys had a great time! I'm celebrating a friends birthday at Talking Stick on Sat! I just hope we dont get rained (or haboobed) out!
I have never seen a dust storm...that's crazy! You look gorgeous; that skirt is perfection! Happy Friday!!
I've seen dust storms before, but never one that big! Crap.
My parents always used to drink gin and tonic. I'm thinking it might be time to give it a try!
HOT CHICA! That outfit rocks! I love finding skirts like that at Target. And that dust storm is way intense...I have never seen anything like that here in Connecticut. I would have freaked if I saw that coming. Have a great weekend!
You look BEAUTIFUL!!!! love the outfit!! I saw your pic on instagram and that is crazy!! at least you enjoyed some pool time :) Have a great weekend!!
You are gorgeous! I had never heard of a haboob and I don't think I ever want to see one. I would for sure think the world was coming to an end!
love the shot of the pool from your room! thats so cool! you looked beautiful, love the lipstick choice! xo Kelly
Wow I seen this skirt at target...looks great!!! Perfect outfit for a night out. That dust/wind storm is crazy!! enjoy vacation!! <3
baaahhh love the outfit! and love staycations!
OMG you stole my drink! I die over bin and tonics. I need one now.
Sounds like an awesome weekend!! That "haboob" is some serious craziness. I would probably just cry if I saw that coming. We don't deal with such things in good ole New England.
and by bin and tonic I mean gin and tonic. I think I was just drinking vicariously through you.
Target, skirt, love.
love that skirt from target! new follower! :)
You look stunning in that outfit!
love your skirt!!
Ummmm gin & tonic is MY FAVORITE drink (when I'm not preggers of course) soooo delicious WITH extra limes of course! :D
Love your blog! I'm a lover or gin and tonic as well, we'll be great friends :)
If it's not Bombay sapphire in your new favorite drink - you should def try it. That's my favorite gin of all time!
