Halloween 2007






On Saturday October 27 we ventured back to Tok to visit with my sisters and to finally get to experience one of my sister Carrie's Halloween Parties! We all really enjoyed ourselves especially Abby. She absolutely loves running with the big kids. Although she was showing some Alpha Female Dominance over a couple 3 year old girls and a 12 month old little girl. She kept stealing the balloons from them and put the 12 month old in a sleeper hold and wouldn't let go of her. She was giving her hugs and kisses, it was actually really cute she just wouldn't let go! Then the little stinker wouldn't leave her cousin Emily's outfit alone. Emil was a candy princess and Abby was trying to eat her dress all night long
On our way home Sunday morning we got to see a herd of Buffalo outside Delta. It was really cool! Below is a video clip of them.





For Halloween this year Abby was a Fire Woman. I know very original:( I figure I better do it now because in years to come she will want to be a princess or something else girly. On Halloween night we dressed her up and brought her over to her god grandma's house to go trick or treating. She made out like a bandit. Yolanda and Re let her have free access to the goodie bowl and she picked every bag of plain M&M's out. This is really the only candy she has had before so she new exactly what they were.

So we had a fun Halloween and look forward to many more:)

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.

Fishing Trip


Thanks to Mike and Morgan, and my cousin Stace I have been inspired to create a blog of the Wohlford Family. So here is my first posting:)


This past weekend a co-worker of Marc's took us out on his boat fishing. We had a blast and had a good day fishing. The sun was out and the fish were plentiful! We as a family have not gotten out and done something this fun in a long time. Abby really enjoyed herself. She liked to splash in the mud puddles, that was until she got stuck in the mud and fell over.


Reed, the guy who brought us out, said we weren't allowed to give up his fishing spot. So he said when someone asked where we caught them we are suppose to respond, " In the mouth"!


We are very thankful that Reed and his wife took us out on their Saturday and spent the day with us. Marc hasn't fished since he left Virginia and has never caught a fish bigger than these. Next summer I'm sure we will get more fishing in, its something we can do with Abby and she loves the outdoors.
