pink jeep.

The Pink Jeep tour company in Sedona, AZ is celebrating their 50th anniversary, starting today!



The kids & I visited Sedona (and nearly the entire upper half of Arizona!) last summer and I fell in love with the entire area. One of the first things we did was a Pink Jeep tour!

All of these pictures were taken on the 2-hour jeep ride. We're still talking about it! It was amazing! You get to see things in the back country that you otherwise wouldn't have access to because there are no public ROADS! (Of course every direction you turn in the Sedona area, there is something spectacular to look at anyway.)

Enjoy the photos, and if you visit the Sedona/Flagstaff/Grand Canyon area of Arizona this year, think about taking a Pink Jeep tour. I highly recommend it! They're running all sorts of specials due to their anniversary! (And I'm not affiliated and wasn't asked to give them a plug, I seriously just loved it!) Here's their website if you'd like more info!

I'm so excited! I just booked our summer vacation, and after much debate, haggling (with the two I live with) and price checking, we settled on...

Sedona, Arizona!!!

Just look at all the amazing things we'll be able to see. We'll do a day at the Grand Canyon too!


I've never been west, and neither have the kids, so this is really an exciting trip for us. We're pretty much beach-goers as a rule for summer vacation. And this year, we were waffling between Washington DC, Key West or Charleston (2 of those have beaches!) We looked hard at Sedona & Moab, Utah last year though, so on a lark I dug out all our 2008 info and checked airfare. Bingo! Perfect match for our interests AND budget.

We're trying to figure out "must do's" now, so if you've been, are from there, or have favorites you'd like to share, I'm all ears!

In sewing news...I picked up some really pretty plum doubleknit this weekend, and so I'm refocusing on that BWOF dress I considered doing in chevrons. OR...I could always start sewing cute summer tops & shorts for my SUMMER VACATION IN SEDONA!!!

Woot!!!
