I’ve been in Alaska since Dec. 21 on Christmas vacation. I’ve had so much fun relaxing, laughing, eating, celebrating and being “home” that I haven’t spent as much time on the blog as usual (can you blame me?). It got down to -40 below zero, there is only 4 hrs of daylight each day and we’ve seen more than 10 moose!
But we leave tonight to head back to Washington and I’ll be back to the old routine again. After I get unpacked and settled, I’ll be back up and running with the blog. I’ll probably post a few deals here and there to get us through to Sunday, but after that you’ll start seeing grocery deals again and we can get back to saving on the essentials! Thanks for sticking with me during my respite up north.
Here are some photos from my vacation, just for fun. Starting with the moose, pictured above, which was in our neighbor’s front yard last night. š
My kiddos in front of the Christmas tree. It was my daughter’s first Christmas!
In the ice sleigh out at Santa Claus’ house in North Pole, Alaska. Me, my son and my husband.
Me and my daughter on Christmas.
The sun, at about 11 a.m., just after it came up. There is just under four hours of daylight here right now.
A mommy and a baby moose, along the side of the road. The car was moving (so it’s blurry) and there is steam from the car window, but you get the idea. When we went for a drive this morning we saw 10 moose!
Natural hot springs. Doesn’t a soak sound soooo good?
This is from this morning when we went for a drive (the roads were icy)!
I hope your holiday season has been as relaxing and enjoyable as mine. As we turn the corner into the new year,Ā may the roads ahead of you in 2011 be full of blessings, good times, and hopefully lots of good deals. š
Thank you for following Queen Bee Coupons!
