More Alaksa Pics

We did a Session at the Anchorage Temple! It was amazing!!

Danon & Rhea







The Homer Spit!






It's interesting to note that there are ice cream shacks all over Alaska! They have an outrageously high consumption of ice cream in that state! I though it would be like hot chocolate or something!


My Cute hubby freezing!!






On our flight coming to Alaska I sat in between Danon and this rather large fellow who was so nice but could not even put the arm rest between us down and was sitting on part of my seat!! Needless to say I was so crammed and didn't dare say anything to him! I kept asking this flight attendant how much longer and visiting with them in the back of the plane! I became good friends with them! It was the longest 5 hours of my life! When we arived in Anchorage I got so sick! I was sick for 2 days after! So I was scared to go on a float plane in fear I would need the barf bag! But I was fine! Didn't even get queezy!! We skimmed private lakes and flew around everywhere! It was so awesome! We also went to Denali National Park and we were like the only tourist there! It was amazing! The coolest part of the trip was when Danon and I would just pull off the road and be 250 feet from a brown bear or we could almost touch moose or caribu! I'm trying to talk Danon into going back up and hunting caribu with Rhea but he won't leave work! What's wrong with him???? Alaska is beautiful and all but I could never live there! I can't live without lots of sunshine and warm weather!

That sounds like fun to me--I would love that!! We'll have to seriously look more into that for sure! But I love your Alaska pic's and i know what ya mean about never wanting to live there--Don't get me wrong Alaska's tons of fun but it gets pretty lonely--you're just so enclosed with trees and the weather is not the greatest which means no sunshine!! but it is so beautiful and the wild animals are amazing to see!! It's really nice to have family there--especially a SUPER nice uncle with a plane that is so generous!! I love Rhea he's so nice!! But Jordan wants to go hunting up there too so maybe they'll have to go together!! anyways now that i've rambled on i'll let ya go!! :) See ya soon!!
Love ya,
Lacey
