Welcome to our Friday Top Five! If you are new to our Friday Top Five blog series, hop over to the very first one, Part 1 to start! It will help you understand our Friday Top Five and the fun we like to share here!
- This week we celebrated Erica’s 29th birthday! We took the day off mostly off of work and enjoyed a more relaxed schedule for the day! Jon wrote her a letter to start the day which you can read here! We especially enjoyed trying a new spot, The Henry, in Scottsdale! The food and atmosphere left us wanting to go back the next day!
- One of the other fun parts about celebrating Erica’s birthday? Freebies!! It is amazing how many places give free or discounted items on your birthday! If you haven’t taken advantage of it for yourself, you need to start! We got $10 off our lunch at Joe’s BBQ and a free dessert at Liberty Market! Erica also picked up some free items from Sephora! Nothing beats free!!
- Call it birthday luck, but we also happened to find a steal of a deal on a lens we’d been wanting for quite a while. We usually purchase things new…call it OCD about how we treat our gear, but this was the closest thing to new you could get! We picked up a 50mm f/1.2L from a local Canon authorized retailer. It came with the original box and accessories that had never even been removed from the plastic!
- Let’s face it – life gets busy…fast! So we’ve been trying tp be extra intentional about creating time and memories with our family. This week, we took a hike in the San Tan Mountains! We weren’t sure how Brody and Paislee would do, but they killed it! Well, Brody did, and Paislee killed Jon’s back and legs since he carried her on his shoulders most of the time!
- We were so proud of Brody this week. He was awarded an Honor Roll certificate for the second quarter of 1st grade! He’s been studying hard and learning so much! We’re so proud of what he’s done by applying himself!
Those are our highlights from the week, friends! Tell us about your week! We’d love to hear from you!!
