Halloween 2006

Around here when it 20 degrees we try to do trick or treat things that are inside. So we went to this carnival we go to each year it was really fun. Do you like my two little knights in shining armor. My mom made these great costumes the boys got lots of compliments. It was really fun. The boy got to dig through the haystack for real money.... all kinds of excitement.

Hallowe'en Spooktacular

We had a great trip to Portage Glacier Vistor Center. Each year they decorate their facility up really well and do a great job of explaining different thing in nature. This year was about alien invaders in other words, things that are not native to Alaska. The drive was beautiful and after we finished it all we topped it off with picking Grandma and Papa up at the airport. They will be staying with us until the beginning of December. Yahoo!

First

Tonight Caleb informed me he was a big boy and no longer needed the rail on his bed. I hope he doesn't fall out of bed tonight :)

This is also the first we have seen snow this season... so looks like winter is sneaking up on us.

Love and snow boots,

Fall Hike up the Butte

We got a great hike in on the Butte. We went with some new friends from church. Caleb hiked the entire mountain by himself. Luke had it a little easier in the backpack. Thankfully Autumn was with us to help Caleb down all the steep switch backs. It was a beautiful fall day.... winter is on it way! Oh, in the photo, Luke didn't fall he just lost his shoe and laid down to throw a fit...I found it kind of amusing.

Big Boots

Luke is quite a ham, he is often to big for his britches, however today he was to small for his boots!

Road Trip

We drove down to Seward to have lunch and go to the Sea Life Center. It was a great trip. Caleb even got his Jr. Ranger badge.
