4th of July Weekend

Hello Everyone!
Hope you're having a wonderful summer so far.





Emily and Stephen celebrated their 1 year anniversary on June 24th
Awwww... so cute
They went to the same spot where he asked her to be his sweetie.




The 4th of July weekend found us doing several things over the course of a few days. 
We had a BBQ Friday night on the deck.
Caleb had a ball game Saturday morning then headed out to Harding Lake with a bunch of friends for an overnight. Stormy, here, has chosen her spot for the day :)





The flowers were pretty, so they got photographed.





This is called relationship "art"






Saturday afternoon we headed to Tanana Lake near town.
We didn't see many people we knew, but that was fine by me.  
The kids floated on rafts and I soaked in the sunshine!







And then the burying began...







Sunday was SOOOO smoky, but I wanted to go hike Grapefruit Rocks with Cooper.
We made it to the top!  Not the greatest view :(
We'll have to do it again when it's clear.




Selfie!

On our drive out there I noticed this beautiful gem, so on the way back we stopped to check it out.
It's called Washington Creek and it's my new favorite "happy place" - SO PRETTY.
It's located only 7 miles north of where we used to live on Haystack Mountain and I never knew it existed. Definitely be traveling out there more often.







Monday was another clear, gorgeous day, so we set afloat on the Chena River.

This is the walking bridge near Pioneer Park that is a popular jumping off spot.
There's Em, Morgan and Stephen getting ready to plunge...




Off they go....

Laura and I went, too, of course.
 Emily got a great slo-mo film of it, but my technological incompetence deterred me from including it in this blog!
We had a great time, tho:)



19 days and counting!!
