Hurricane Gulch Train Trip

Today I took the boys on the train! There is a day trip up to Hurricane Gulch. They did great, it was beautiful out and they each won a real Golden Train Spike (painted gold and used at the end of a new rail line to celebrate it's finish) and a star pin from the conductor for being so good...  I also got compliments from the New York tourists across the aisle from us who have seen many children on their travels but none as well behaved as ours. Good job boys. While we passed the time Jax schooled me in "Go-Fish" several times.

That's Denali over there.

OK, here is the last of them...

Lots of Photos On The Lake

Yes I took a lot of pictures that day... But if you had these three cuties with you all day, and this beautiful day on the lake boat how could you not?!

A Loon With Babies

You can see one of the babies is riding on her back while the other follows her. Cute little Loon family on  Christiansen Lake here in  Talkeetna. We saw them in a cove while out in the lake boat.

Hawk on the lake...

The boys had fun on the boat. It was a little hot out and Hawken got tired, he had to take a rest for a bit. But then he  got a second wind and he was ready for more...

Jax on the lake...

Jaxon on the lake. He's lost a couple teeth lately too. Love the toothless smile! We had trout for dinner, Jaxon's favorite, after a nice day on the boat...
