Fun in the snow

Winter has finally arrived in Fairbanks. I'm not looking forward to the long winter days, but it will be nice not having to go anywhere when it is -40. I think Abby and I will snuggle up in a nice warm blanket and drink some hot chocolate! Okay that is wishful thinking because Abby doesn't like to snuggle that much and hates being inside. She defiantly is an Alaskan Girl who loves the outdoors!





This past weekend we brought her out to check out the cool white stuff that was sticking to the ground. She wasn't to sure about it but she thought it was pretty funny when her dad hit me with snowballs! With her new winter boots its like she is learning to walk all over again. I guess she isn't use to all that ankle support.

Until next time stay warm if your in Alaska or cool if your in the tropics of the lower 48. I can't believe how warm it is everywhere, except here of course. Whenever it is cold here it is hot down there and just the opposite. So I think we are in for a pretty cold winter if things don't change soon:) Take Care.

Birthday and Hunting

Abby and I headed to Tok this past weekend with my mom and dad to spend time with my sisters and their kids. We celebrated Cody and Katie's birthday and had a good time just hanging out.

Abby loves to hang out with her cousins and chase them around. She did good until she decided to climb on a chair. She fell off and busted her mouth, blood was flowing and mom got whoozy feeling:) Later that night she was chasing Cody and Emily into the bedroom and ran right into the corner of the wall. Ouch! She bounced up pretty fast and was on her way again. She is starting to prove to be a clumsey little gal.

While we were out having fun and partying Marc was out hunting. Unfortuatly he did not get his moose this year. He saw a lot but they were never anywhere where he could shoot them. They were either out of the rifle range or across the road and by they time he crossed to get a shot they were gone. He did however take this picture while he was out.
