Welcome to the USA

Welcome Cankun Sun, or as she likes to be called, "Sunny"! We 

are so excited to have Sunny with us this school year. It is great to have

two girls in the house again. Both Kristen and Sunny are going to be

attending Cedar Springs High School this year. We are looking forward to 

sharing lots of new experiences and making new memories together.

By the way, today is her birthday too! How cool is that? 

25th Anniversary in Alaska

Gene surprised me with an awesome trip for our 25th Anniversary. We got the chance to go on an Alaskan cruise! It sure was beautiful. The pictures do not do justice to the beauty God created up there. :) Enjoy some of the pix we took. Thanks honey for the last 25 years and a the amazing vacation. Looking forward to spending the next 25 years with you!

Coming up to the Tracy Arm Fjord.

Love the glacier blue water. 

We went through very slowly... plenty of time to snap a pic.

They told us that we could only see about 20% of the icebergs. There was a special captain who came on board to help us navigate through all of them.

Sawyer Glacier from the cruise ship. Incredible.

We learned that the muscle that moves the tail is called the peduncle muscle, and it

is the strongest muscle of all animals

Alaskan Black Tail deer. She was very camera friendly. 

Back in Seattle. We enjoyed a ride on this 200' tall ferris wheel. It was cool looking 

at the city from the top.
