Memorial Day

Jeff and I were invited to a family from our ward's home for a bbq and sunny weather for Memorial Day. It sure is nice to be in a great ward that includes us in their activities. The Schaffer's live on base, so it was fun to go hang out and get a tour of "base life". Meg and Terr were invited too so it was fun to have our best friends enjoying the day with us. After a great meal, we enjoyed playing catch, frisbee and just relaxing in the sun. Unfortunately, I only got one pic of Jeff and Terr playing catch.


After the bbq, Jeff and I drove down to Lake Hood to watch float planes take off and land. We have tickets to ride a float plane to a glacier and bear seeing in the next few weeks, and it scares me to death to think about getting in one of them, being planes crash all the time in the Alaska air. But I guess if I die, I will be with my best friend. (And yes mom, you can have the dogs... well Amanda and Scott can have Chewy:)





Alaska is just so beautiful, it amazes me everyday. If our families lived here, I could see us staying forever. The air is crisp and fresh, and there is so much to do and enjoy everyday. The dogs love it too :)
