ALASKA!

7.30.2020

We were so blessed this year with an unexpected trip to ALASKA! It was so fun to see our cousins and hang out with Cliff and Stephs' family. We don't get to see them much and so it was an unexpected surprise. With everything being remote due to Covid we took advantage of working from home and zoom church to head up to Alaska from Seattle. We had such a good time playing outside, hanging with cousins, fishing, picking berries and being outdoors with our cousins.



Bergen was determined to steer the golf cart all by herself. Look at her face!



We took off after the kids were in bed two nights to go on bike rides. This was the Powerline trail which was such a good ride and so beautiful. These pictures were taken around 10pm!











We all loved playing in the water and catching fish. Cliff took Spencer and us out to a little river to catch some pink salmon. There was so many! The pinks don't taste very good so we didn't keep any, but Spencer and Cliff did a day fishing trip later in the week and came home with a bunch of King Salmon and smoked them. Yummy!








One morning Madison and Steph took the kids out to pick berries. They were everywhere! The girls got so many that they ate all they wanted and then we brought some home to make a raspberry pie. 









Spencer's monster catches with Cliff. The fishing requires a lot of technique which Spencer admits he did not have. Cliff and a friend caught a bunch of fish and let Spencer real them in. They got some big ones!


Blueberry hill with our cousins! We had a little picnic up on the hill and let the kids pick blueberries and crow berries. It's always a little breezy up on blueberry hill, but the kids had a great time picking berries and exploring the area.
