March Madness

It has been quite the busy March for us! Our weather has been up and down and inside out; snow, rain, ice, epic shutting down the town blizzards.... you name it and we've had it. I can't believe the amount of snow that we have!

Since about last weekend we have had the most gorgeous spring weather- of course right after our spring break is over, but we won't talk about that. We've been getting out to slide, tow with our snowmachine, ski, walk and we even went on a family ride (in which one of our snowmachines blew up, but we won't talk about that either).

Kiley is quite popular with all the kids in our neighborhood & family because she can drive her little snowmachine and tow them around the yard.


Don't worry she doesn't go very fast, and these two are her favorite passengers.


We went to the sledding hill the other day and had it all to ourselves!



We are looking forward to the rest of this week being sunny and gorgeous, perfect spring weather in Alaska.  Once April hits we will be ready for it to all melt and disappear!

Happy birthday to me!

Actually it was my birthday a few weeks ago now.... but what an amazing day! My mom and sister SURPRISED me and came home to help me celebrate! I was completely, and utterly shocked, the dirty dogs!
  


My sister had to leave on Sunday to head back to work but got in as much fun as we could while she was here. What a fabulous weekend.

We enjoyed my mom's company for about a week and a half, and she even stayed with us! I can't stop the clock,  but with birthdays like this I just can't complain about getting older!
