four lovely women...

My four favorite women live around the country and every Monday they send me a snapshot from their little corner of this wonderful world. This is what's going on with them...

Seattle, WA - my daughter.
"Having the Country's Best Pizza at this place while I was at home"

 
Sedona, AZ - my mother.
  "The view from our balcony as the storms begin to move in, we had lots of snow and ice last week"
 
 
Aliso Viejo, CA - my friend.
"Took this out the car window in Palm Springs while driving home from Arizona"
 
 
St. Augustine, FL - my cousin.
"Having fun with the Star Wars cookie cutters we received for Christmas"

 
I'm back from my Christmas blogging break and can't wait to get out to blogland and see what you've all been up to.

I usually say "let's all have a great week" but this week I can say let's all have a great year - Welcome 2011!

For some reason, husband, daughter and myself would love to travel from Australia to Sedona Arizona, and Sitca in Alaska - just jumps out from the pages when we come across those destinations.Have even investigated by satellite. That photo just reinforces the desire to get there.Thanks for sharing and all the wonderful posts you provided in 2010. Have a great 2011!

Happy to say our temps have climbed a little bit since last week and we have blue skies again, it was 12F on Sat. morning and 22F for the high! Looking forward to getting back to normal temps for this time of year.
Wishing you all a happy and healthy 2011!
