Building houses...and other things.


Taste testing!

I wanted to make the girls dresses out of this fabric, but instead we used it to make a skirt for aunt Megs. Don't worry we totally copied the pattern! *giggles*

Actual snowmen!??



Coming from the desert just SeEiNg snow is super exciting but having enough to build a snowman is EVEN COOLER! Well here in Alaska when you get inches and inches or FEET and FEET of snow the snowmen get bigger, and just like frosty they come to life! I haven't seen any that sing and dance yet but they sure work hard dumpin' all that snow we've gotten right into the OCEAN! Pretty nifty! 




A blizzard in MARCH!!!!!!!!!!




Mel warned us, but I didn't believe. Sure it snows in Kodiak...a little here and a little there. She's GOT to be JOKING when she said we were having a blizzard, I figured crazy sister talk for 
"lots of snow". Not like ACTUAL talk for LOTS OF SNOW! 
We survived, It was fun! 


It snowed ALL day.... 
Mel and I had a brilliant plan to go the gy
m...so off we went, kids in tow for part of the way! We threw the kids out at Terri's and worked our booties off at the gym. Grabbed the kids from Terri's and headed home. Got half way home and had to help a car get up the hill, it was the Bish. I pushed him, a guy helped me, Mel parked the car and helped me. We finally got Bish home. Brand was shoveling the driveway (for the THIRD time), we helped him. 


and all night...
When we woke up in the morning, school had been cancelled, even the Coasties stayed in! 
We looked out the window and what did we see? SNOW EVERYWHERE...we had to PUSH sno
w out of the way so we could open the front door to play! It was NUTS!
And the snow STILL hasn't melted! AHHHHHHHHHH!!!



Welcome to KODIAK!!!!!!!



It is a beautiful place, even when it snows! *giggles* 


Hanna's tea party!



Two days after we landed on this ISLAND (don't think about that too much or it makes you SICK knowing you CAN'T leave!) it was time for Hanna's birthday. Mel and I made decorations to hang from the ceiling, fried donuts, made a cake, and brought out the high heels!!! 


It was sooooo much fun! I did the girls hair, poofy as could be. We let them choose their outfits and we began to play! Tea parties always make for FUN memories!!!

So...be waiting, the pictures will be here this weekend and then I'll fill you in on our SUPER DUPER lives! YIPEE!!!!!!!!!!!!
