Harvest Time!

Amir planted potatoes this year. Micah was the only one kind enough to help him harvest!
We did get zuchinni and lettuce.
Strawberries and raspberries were delicious.
I grew a plant that yielded 4 cucumbers that I ate all by myself. YUM!!
Must have been the volcanic ash- good fertilizer?

Denail Trip

Amir and I won train tickets to Denali National Park. We went for a weekend by ourselves!

Hurricane Gulch, it is 300 feet straight down with nothing but a tiny train track bridge!
It was exciting the first time but going home I was not so sure.

We stayed at the Denali Grande Hotel!
It is up on the mountain and we had some interesting experiences riding up and down on the shuttle bus.

Amir was a romantic date and we went on a horse drawn carriage ride with dinner at a cabin!
I thought he was being nice taking my picture until I looked at what was in the background!
No wonder he was laughing! That is Amir and he is mine!

Fair Fun!!

We went to the fair and had a great time wasting money!

The kids love to get their hair done!! But they do not like the hassel of trying to wash it out!
Joshua looks like Rufio from the movie Hook!
