The Family Hunters, and other tidbits

My Great White Hunter........
Jon didn't look this happy while he was hunting. It rained almost the entire time and they didn't see one bull. We still haven't gotten our moose so hopefully he'll go out again...
When "the boys" got back from their hunting trip on the Nushagak, Max and Cody decided they would try their luck on the 4- Wheeler at Snake Lake. Max always seems to have fun no matter what he is doing and as you can see from the picture they sure had a blast on this trip, even if they didn't get anything.

I have been totally slacking in the blogging department lately. Starting work again, and not having a whole lot of extra energy are my only excuses. I also need to start taking some pictures and then actually download them to our computer! We are still busy organizing and unpacking our house, will we ever get done? Jon tackled the garage this weekend and it is still a work in progress.... he is trying to get it some what organized for our new kitchen cabinets and counter tops that will make it in sometime in October. My gorgeous walk-in closet finally got put together- I finally have room for all of my clothes! It is absolutely heavenly, I will have to post a picture.

Kiley is just busy- busy talking, playing and riding her bike. Last night she was very naughty and put about a roll of toilet paper down the toilet, Mommy was NOT happy. She is closing in on three so hopefully the terrible two's will be left behind her. Miss Kiley is addicted to purses- or anything she turns into a purse. She has her nail polish, lippa's, and any object that is shiny or that she has deemed "mine".

Kami has her cousin Harley to keep her company. Harley is my sister Jeanette's dog that we are watching for....?? well we are not sure. Jon forgot that he was in the house the other night and when we woke up the next morning Harley had left us three very brown, large, steaming "presents." What a guy huh? We are excited for Jeanette to find her own place so Harley can go home. We do enjoy him though- he is quite the fetcher.

Happy Anniversary!

Our honeymooner cabin on the Agulawok- very, very nice!
This little bear decided to give us a show right in front of our cabin- he was chasing spawning salmon in a little creek.
Kayaking on the Agulawok- it was gorgeous!
Waiting for our plane on the beach at Katmai

Jon and I celebrated 6 years of wedded bliss :) on August 3rd. We were surprised with the opportunity to go to the GCI Lodge on the Agulawok for the entire weekend. Since this seemed to be a very busy weekend for everyone in my family we flew my mom up to stay for about 10 days and to watch Kiley.
We had a heavenly weekend-with hiking, kayaking, a deluxe cabin all to ourselves plus wonderful food and conversation. I don't think we have had any other anniversary to top this one! We also got to go to Katmai National Park for the day and watch the bears foraging for salmon. I got some wonderful pictures- and I still can't get over how lucky we were!
