3-Dub: Sedona Edition

Gosh!!  I am embarrassed.  REALLY embarrassed that it has taken me OVER A YEAR to do this post.  Hopefully, though, this will get you psyched for WWW 2012!!!

Now ladies, I have a horrible memory, so if I missed some essential detail (like that joke we were trying to remember while sitting on top of that mountain that I made you scale...something about Pope Benedict (?)...please add your comments!!!

Without further ado....


The intrepid women who took on 3-Dub 2011: Sedona - Jessica "Tall Drink of Water" Steed; Elisabeth "Cancer Can't Get Me Down, But Sure Did a Number on My Girls" Smith; Bonnie "Anything You Can Do, I Can Do with More Kids" Wiscombe; and me, Amy "Single Until Proven Otherwise" Buell.

Bonnie did a fan-freakin'-tastic job--fabulous locale, adorable little house with a hot tub(!), and the best girls you could ever ask for!  Those of you who weren't there were missed.  Let me just tell you: you don't want to miss another one!

It started off with a bang at our little fun-shack...

 Bonnie reading the most sought-after book at the house: When You're Expecting Twins, Triplets, or Quads: Proven Guidelines for a Healthy Multiple Pregnancy.  Yep...thrilling stuff.


 To fend off the results of our high-calorie temptations, we made sure to get out and enjoy a lovely jaunt around the neighborhood.



 Pretty sure the above picture was a "run way from the camera and, right before it snaps, turn and pose" and this is what we get.


 "How are all six of ya doing back there???"


 Our funky house and the beautiful Sedona landscape.


 AWESOME!!  Our funky house had a suspended. outdoor. bed.


 And...how do you self-portrait four ladies (and four fetuses) on a hanging bed??  Well...


 we...


 tried.


 Did I mention that we had a hot tub???  Snap!


 Sedona is quite the Mecca for the arts!  And...life imitates Art.


 The likeness...


 is...


 uncanny!


 We girls DID have our priorities.  We drove halfway up a mountain because...there was a DQ there.


 Jess and I got cozy...sharing a pull-out sofa with STD blankets.  Yeah....


 Model shoot!


 I love a good church -- we visited the Chapel of the Holy Cross.


 And we found our other dream home because, let's face it, our funky house was the bomb.


 Thank goodness for the nearby facilities...


 because they provided an opportunity to surprise Jess on the "Nice John."




Impromptu dance party in the parking lot...courtesy of Justin Bieber!!  (I really hope this video loads!)


Lovely red rock Sedona!

 Bon--succumb to the the sunglasses already.





 Strike a pose...


and that might be the best pose yet.  It's a shocker those kids didn't fall out with those deep lunges.


 We climbed a mountain (props to those carrying two people in addition to their own weight) and we sat up there and tried to remember that Pope Benedict joke.


 Frosty drinks in a hot tub!!


 We went to Jerome, AZ to check out the local crazy lady.  Whoops!!  That just happens to be Jessie possessed by the embellished hat.


Yeah...Jerome has some awesome scenery.  At least we prettied up the town a bit.


 The very helpful and extremely creepy rearview camera.  Watch out for the serial killer!!  We're pretty sure Ted Bundy was going to pop into view every time we were in reverse.


 Cozy dinner...


 prepared by Lis!


 They fit SIX in the bed (if you count the buns in the oven)!!


 Your really can find art EVERYWHERE in Sedona...including above the bathroom window at the funky house.


 Ride 'em, cowgirl!!!


Funky house -- lookin' good, girls!



3-Dub: Sedona Edition.  Can't wait for WWW 2012!!!
