So this summer Kaden and I have stayed busy playing, working, and doing online classes. Mostly we have been playing though. In June we went to Alaska for 7 days with my Dad, Malcolm, and Bryce. We went fishing twice, once for Salmon (we didn't catch anything) and once for Halibut (we only caught rock fish). We blame our bad luck on my Mom's brother Mike who took us both times.
this is a black bear that was about 20 yards up the hill from Kaden and Bryce
As you can tell we were trying to be serious fishers
first fish caught by Kaden
Biggest fish caught by Kaden (of course)
My first and only fish
But i did catch the coolest thing ever, a sea cucumber!
I dragged it right off the bottom of the ocean
We also went to my Dad's brother Mike's property about 2 hours out of Anchorage. We stayed the night up there, went four wheeling, made smores, and some of went to a small town called Takeetna.
Dad sized four wheeler
Malcolm did Awesome! While we were there, he was more active than he had been in a very long time. I had to post the proof of him chopping wood.

This little lake was made by a beaver dam, in the picture are my 2 new cousins Elliot and Nick and Nick's girlfriend Brenda. It was a lot of fun getting to know them and spending time with them.
Fattest beagle Me and Malcolm had ever seen
We were pretty impressed by this ice cream maker
Malcolm was in love with all of the planes that were up there
I loved spending so much time with Kaden and my Dad, and Malcolm and Bryce, as well as my Uncle Mike and his family. Alaska was so Beatutiful! Here are alot of the scenery pictures.
Learned
While in Alaska i learned that Kaden and I definitly need to go on vacations as much as possible. Not only are they fun, but they let us spend time together and really enjoy each others company, especially when we are so busy with work and school.
I also learned that the next time we go to Alaska we will stay longer, and go to more places. We both would love to go back and are thinking we might try to with my family and the kirks next August.
oh my goodness!! so beautiful, had no idea you went. i would love to go there one day.
