We got up bright and early this morning and arrived in Flagstaff around 9:30am. Our first stop was Hank's favorite coffee shop, Macy's. He got a coffee and we split a "birdseed" treat, which is really just a whole lot of nuts and seeds pressed into a peanut butter base. Delicious. We spent the rest of the day walking around, enjoying the crisp mountain air that is so similar to ours but yet somehow so different, and eating lots of yummy food. Our favorite Thai restaurant Dara Thai was closed today so we decided to eat at an old favorite, Pita Jungle. Henry loves hummus so we knew it was pretty foolproof, and we had a great meal. We arrived home later in the evening, exhausted but so, so happy to have spent such a fun day together as a family.
Here are some photos, mainly from my regular camera and a couple little collages from my iPhone. And on a side/related note- it's only been two days of taking my camera out more places with us and I couldn't be happier. Nothing's better than pretty photos to capture such special memories!
Happy Father's Day!
Love the colours in the photos!
ReplyDeleteThese photos have inspired me not only to get out of town and take my husband on a mini road trip but also to take my camera with me more places! Thanks Danielle :)
ReplyDeleteI am also really loving these colours! I searched but couldn't find the answer - Danielle, what camera do you use? :)
ReplyDeleteHi Cait! I use a Nikon D60 with a 35mm 1.8 lens. I think that's what it's called...I'm kind of clueless! hahah.
DeleteGod I want to go there!!
ReplyDeleteI love these sorts of photos, really capturing the place. I would love to visit Arizona one day, but til then I'll live vicariously through your blog!! :D xxx
ReplyDeleteso cute! what a fun day trip! random question: where's your bag and dress from?? i love them both so much! happy monday!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much Camille! :) My dress is from Forever 21 and my bag is from Nordstrom. It's by the brand Lulu from their BP section last year. <3
DeleteWow, Flagstaff looks like such a cool place!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful way to spend Father's Day! I want to visit Arizona so badly! I've only been to the southwest once and it was a sort of limited trip but I LOVED IT! I've tried on more than one occasion to convince my husband to move there sight unseen. Ha, it never works!
ReplyDeleteI can't believe Henry's blond hair! He looks so grown up in these pix
ReplyDeleteThose are all such great photos! So glad that you're trying to use your camera more. It looks like you guys had a blast. :)
ReplyDeleteFlagstaff looks beautiful! So glad you had a great weekend/Father's Day!
ReplyDeleteyou're family is so stinkin' cute!
ReplyDeleteLooks like such a cool city :) I'm loving the photos + glad you brought out your camera. I've been trying to be better at that too. Looks like you had so much fun! ♥Lindsay
ReplyDeleteHenry is sooo precious! That smile of his could stop anyone in their tracks :D
ReplyDeletehow fun! love the photos! and i love your shades:)
ReplyDeleteLove it. As a german I never heard of Flagstaff before, but it seems to be a lovely place. At least that's what you beautiful pictures suggest.
ReplyDeleteI love Henry's hummus face! Will he eat it on things or just by itself? I have the pickiest 13 month old little boy who also likes hummus but will only eat it by the handful. Your food posts on what you give Henry are inspiring, if only mine would eat half as well!
ReplyDeleteThese photos capture very nicely what looks like a great day! Well done :-) I have a question, though--do you know what those red flowers are called? They're gorgeous and I remember my partner and I saw them on a roadtrip and neither one of us knew. I think it's the ninth one from the bottom? Thanks!
ReplyDeletei love seeing flagstaff through another person's eyes! funny, but my husband and i love to escape from flagstaff to prescott! the thrifting, the trader joes, the courthouse... :)
ReplyDeleteFlagstaff looks pretty awesome! Love your flowers hots, especially the poker-type ones.
ReplyDeleteAww, that looks amazing!

You guys are such an adorable family!
ReplyDeleteAw, my even older home! That silhouette and group of oldtimey portraits weren't there when I lived there, at least not that I knew about. Where is that wall?
ReplyDeleteYour watch is stunning! Who makes it?
ReplyDeletesuch a great town! i haven't been there in ages. it's nice to see some pics ;)
ReplyDeleteI LOVE Flagstaff too and it will always hold great memories for me as well. I traveled there during a tough time in my life all by myself and made the best memories. It's a great little town indeed!
