The Month of JULY
Ps: thank you Murry's for all the fun and hospitality.!!!!!!!
So we got back the 13th of July which was a hassle because our flight kept getting delayed and we did not leave the Atlanta Airport till 6 and got home 10:00 Alaska time. My brother Picked up Ben friend Matthew O'Gorman earlier in the day. So on Monday I went and got Matt from Peter's house. So went another fun and busy week showing Matt Alaska! the kids and I took Matt down to Seward, we went on a cruise around Resurrection Bay, We saw so many wildlife, sea otters, Sea lions, Bald Eagles, Killer Whales, Many different Birds. On the way back we drove to see Exit Glacier and a black bear ran across the road. Then we stop to eat, and on our way out across the road were two Brown Bear!!!!!AWESOME!!!!! so if you think that is all right before we got to anchorage we saw a herd of mountain goats. The one thing Matt wanted to see was a Moose and so far NO MOOSE! So the Friday the 18th Phil comes up, that night we went took Matt and Phil camping at Eklutna. Which I think was Matt's first camping trip if not it was his first in Alaska. Then Saturday Drew and his friend Eric came up, and Finally Sunday Bonnie arrives!! So on the way to the airport to drop Matt off Ben and him saw a Moose. : )
So week three: with Phil and Bonnie, Drew and Eric. They did a lot Drew and Eric hiked Crow creek trail in two day's and one night, Phil and Bonnie stayed at Alyaska Hotel, one night. Ben, Becca and I took the kids swimming there. P and B and D and E went down to Seward. Then we went Camping Friday night it did not rain until we went to bed but then it did not stop the whole day! so we packed up and went home that evening, we went over to Pete's a Becca's house and played cards.
Phil and Bonnie left Sunday night the boys left in the morning.
And now for another couple of weeks my mom and dad are coming up : ) my mom will be here tonight.!!!!!

Relaxing...
Last night Kari, since she is the Matrian of Honor (I know I cannot spell) threw Helen Matthews a Bridal Shower. That left Joachim and I at home. We decieded to camp out in the yard. We cooked hot dogs over the fire, had chips and salsa, and drank soda. Joachim, like is Papa, loves fire, he always wants to get more sticks for the fire, and insists he always has a long stick to poke the fire with. JD and Noah came out to sit by the fire with us. Camping was great, even though it rained out.
Memorial Weekend
We are just now getting around to posting what we did over Memorial Weekend. The Johnson family, Curry family and Labrecque family went down to Seward for the holiday weekend. We always camp on Exit Glacier Road, about three miles in on the right. It is part of the 'special use area' ie free camping. It is a great spot, a little below the road, you do not hear too much traffic, not on the river side, so no 4 wheelers or crazy party people and right up against the mountains - a good spot for a family. We got down on Saturday afternoon. Sunday we went to the Sealife Center - very awesome. Monday we were planning on going to Exit Glacier. An old avalanche blocked the road however and we ended up just going to Seward and letting the kids play on the playground. Then we headed home. All in all it was a good trip.

At the Sealife Center.
About Joachim's faviorite thing to do is throw rocks in the water. Every time he does, he exclaimes 'Big Splash.' He does this all the time. Yesterday we biked into Eagle River and had to stop at Fire Lake to throw rocks in. And Monday, at Chugiak Pool, everytime someone went off the diving board he yelled, 'Big Splash!'

More Snow
Well this is the view out my front window on 26 April 2008. It snowed about 20 inches in the last 24 hours! The morning news on the 25th called for 1-3 inches in the higher elevations and rain where we are. They sure know what they are talking about! This will basically be our 3rd break-up this year. At the end of March the snow was gone and I was able to do some yard work. Then it snowed. The last week has been sunny and in the 50's and there were only patches of snow left on the lawn. Then it snowed. I really hope this is the last time and that it will melt soon. Tomorrow is Pascha!
