Camping Trip in Denali

Here are a few pics from our recent camping trip to Denali. We also went to the National Park which I was so excited to go to until we got there. I thought it paled in comparison to Yellowstone National Park. Of the 6 million acres that makes up the park you are only allowed to drive 15 miles in. Your odds of seeing wild animals are slim unless you want to sit for hours upon hours and have a good set of binoculars.

Crazy Hair

Madison got "Crazy Hair" at a festival in Eagle River. Here are a couple of pictures.

Some Scenery on our Seward trip

Exit Glacier

After a long day in Seward before heading home we stopped off to see the Exit Glacier. After a little hike which I was NOT dressed for. My poor, cute, little loafers were not enjoying hiking up the mountain! Thankfully after I cleaned them up they weren't damaged. I did not look like I should be hiking. I think everyone assumed I was a tourist for sure. It was freezing by the glacier and the wind would take your breath away.

Seward, AK

We went to a campsite on Fort Rich to hang out with the Joyce Family for a few hours.

Little Gamblers

Tyler & Julia LOVE Poker!! Who would've guessed that they would rather play poker than video games!! This was taken the week before they went to WA for the summer. Can't wait for them to get home!!!!

Mother's Day

We went out riding around on Mother's Day. It was sunshine and beautiful in Anchorage but as soon as we left it was rainy and cold. All and all it was still a nice day.

SNOW IN APRIL

Well yesterday we had a cold front from Russia come in and did it bring snow. We got about a foot or more of snow! We spent the morning digging out the driveway. So much for all the other chores we had planned for the day like getting more of the house unpacked and organized! We went from 58 degrees and beautiful sunshine to this! Glad I am a procrastinator and still have my studded tires on the car!

Alaska Zoo & H2Oasis

We had a short visit with Madison :( !! Can't wait for her to come for the summer. The only sad thing is that Julia & Tyler will be gone while she is here. We are planning to do all the fun things that are seasonal and things we couldn't squeeze into this past week. Rod took Madie back this weekend and I will be picking him up at 2 a.m. after a very long trip! Hope he won't be too grumpy!!!

Slash & Tyler

Sorry it has taken me several months to update this thing!! Lots has been happening around here with our family. Rod moved in about a month ago. After he was here for 2 wks I had to go to TX for a week of training. On my way back I took a detour to RI and picked up Madison for her spring break. Here are some photos I took of the kids playing around after a day of trying to get my stuff and Rod's stuff organized in this house so I don't go nuts with all the clutter we have at the moment!
