To say that going back to work last week was tough is the understatement of the year! Arizona was so hot and sunny and magical- there is nothing better than spending a few days by the pool with your best friends! We actually managed to get a lot of stuff squeezed in {casino, top golf, tempe days festival etc} while still spending ample time in the pool. It was so hot that the only way to be outside was floating on a raft or sitting on the shaded patio playing endless rounds of hockey. 

I am not a hugely avid applier of SPF {I know, I know} I generally apply once when I first get out in the sun and don't worry about it. This trip though, with how hot it was and the lack of clouds in the sky I was pretty good about reapplying only to find that I am allergic in the form of a slightly itchy, mildly red rash! I got amazing color, the perfect bronze tan without burning which was nice but at the expense of comfortability. 

If you have a chance to make it out to Arizona you definitely should go! The views are breathtaking and the people are insanely friendly! We enjoyed every last minute we were there but pack super light!
