Alaska, Going Home, And Company!

We are still visiting the Kenner's in Alaska!  Lulu had so much fun playing with the kids and all there toys one night we were just hanging out and Lulu was carrying around her two babies in her arms so Angie thought it would be helpful to Lulu if we tied the babies around her waist so that her arms were free.  We thought it was pretty funny and Lulu seemed to enjoy it to. 

 I guess Lulu got tired of reaching in the bucket to get toys out so she thought it would be easier to sit on the toys in the bucket and play with them that way!

 On Monday Kyle had off from work so we went to Homer for the day to see the sites.   They had a street that had shops all along it so we went walking and shopping.

 After we were done shopping we headed down to the beach the kids had lots of fun playing in the sand and throwing rocks.  Lulu loves rocks so she was in rock heaven.  

 I love how she is sitting she looks so grown up. 

 She found this perfect seat on this log.  

 After the beach we headed to the visitor center and museum to check it out.  Here Lulu is checking out what is inside a fish and she found a baby fish as well.  

 The kids had a fun time exploring!  There's a moose behind them. 

 After the visitor center we went for a walk Lulu had lots of fun looking off the edge of the bridge to see what and mud.  

 The next day we went for a little hike and the kids were able to do a little scavenger hunt on our hike to earn a prize.  Here Lulu is practicing her, well I'm not really sure what she is doing but it was pretty cute.  

 After our hike we headed over to a doughnut shop called the Moose is Loose to eat some yummy doughnuts.  

 Here are all the kids minus Karlee.  Kelsie, Kallie, Lulu, and Jaron. 

 We had such a fun time in Alaska with the Kenners, the time went by way to fast.  Thank you guys for everything and for showing us all around we had lots of fun!  

Here is Lulu on our flight back to Utah, Angie bought Lulu her very own Polly Pocket so we had lots of fun playing with it on the flight home.  We found out that the Polly Pockets hat fit perfect on Lulu's nose so we had lots of fun doing that over and over again.  

 Lulu was so excited to see her Daddy when we got home.  Look at those two big smiles. 

 Lulu was hiding the other day!  I love how covering her eyes means she is hiding.  She is a silly one!

 After we got home we had some special visitors passing through on there way to Oregon. We had one day with them and we were busy.  It was so fun having them stop by we love having company.  On the day they were here we went to Temple Square we had lots of fun walking around even though it was super hot.  Here is a picture of Lulu, Anna, and Matthew.  

After walking around Temple Square we headed over to City Creek to check it out and the kids found a little spray pad and cooled off, well only Matthew cooled off but Lulu and Anna watched they weren't quite sure about the spraying water.  Matthew sure had fun running around getting wet.  

 Here Lulu is sitting like a little big grown up.  So Cute!

 And then Ann and Lulu sitting together watching the kids play in the water.  

Another week older!

Saying Cheese!

 Showing you her nose!

Showing you the inside of her nose!

 Dancing, Looks like the hula!

Folding her arms saying a pray!

 She is so crazy and silly and we love her more and more everyday!  

Our Trip To Alaska

Lulu and I went on an adventure to Alaska for a week in a half in May, to visit my sister and her family that just moved there in December. 

I was really nervous about the flight over there by myself with Lulu for a five hour flight but it worked out just fine I had an open seat next to me so I was able to bring Lulu's car seat on with me and have her strapped in her seat the whole time it was great.  Once we landed Angie was there waiting for us and the kids and Kyle were outside in the car waiting for us. Everyone was really excited to see us.  We Few into Anchorage and we had a three hour drive to get to Soldotna where they live.  

Our second day there the bigger kids were still in school for a couple of days before summer break.  So Angie and Kyle took us out and showed us around there town.  We stopped here and found a bear,  I love Karlee in this picture, miss thing. 

It was so nice and sunny outside on Tuesday so we went to a park to let Lulu and Karlee play and Lulu loved it she had so much fun.

 I love how big this swing is I just had to get in and go for a ride.  

 Angie had a desk up in a loft in the toy room and Lulu's favorite thing to do was swing on it.  It was so funny to watch her do it.  And she did it a lot.  She looked like a little monkey. 

 Kelsie drew this picture and she wanted me to take a picture of it and her.  She is such a silly girl she loved playing with Lulu. 

One night I couldn't find Lulu anywhere, as I was looking for her I found her in Kelsie's bed reading Kelsie's book it was so cute.  

The first day of the kids being out of school we went to Seaward to go to The Sea Life Aquarium.  It was lots of fun and Lulu loved watching the fish and seals swim around.  Lulu was Kallie's little buddy that day. 

This was funny Lulu was trying to give me kisses on this TV screen it was so cute.  

Lulu checking out the seals swim around in the water. 

All the kids watching the seals, do you see the big seal in the back!

There was a place where you could listen to a man telling you about the different sea animals Lulu had to listen to her own.  Here she is listening. 

Outside of the Aquarium I loved the water with the mountains in the back with the snow on them and the clouds, I thought it was so pretty!

I'm pointing to a glacier it was pretty amazing, you can't see it very good in the picture. 

Lulu found Karlee's pirate bloomers from her Halloween costume it was pretty cute.  She really wanted to show the camera the doll. 

On Saturday we bundled up and went to the beach, we didn't stay to long because it was pretty windy and cold but it was fun to go to the beach in Alaska.

                                 Lulu and I at the beach, don't mind my squinty eyes I'm not sure why I'm doing that.  

Angie, Lulu, Me and my squinty eyes again!

Lulu loved playing with rocks at the beach.  This was the only time during our visit to Alaska that Lulu wore her warm winter coat.

While we were in Alaska turned another week older.
