Valentine's Weekend!!!!

Curious Chena and ANGRY ANGRY Angel! Angel did not move from the couch the entire day I puppy-sat!


We played in the snow in the backyard...there is a lot of it!


Hehe... Angel growled at Chena, so she barked back!

Angel and I all tuckered out after a day of puppy-sitting! Chena is an AWESOME puppy.... but still a puppy, with lots of energy!!


Mmmm, I picked up some live lobster for our Valentines meal

Angel was VERY interested in those "fishy" things!

AAAaaaaaaaaaaahhh don't boil us!! Adam has a creepy smile on his face!

Angel enjoying the scraps! It was DELICOUS!

Here is Kincaid beach in the winter.....the one with all of the pretty rocks!

Skiing along the beach, next to the very mysterious and cleared "road"! We have no idea WHY there need to be a cleared path or HOW a truck got down there!

Yup, Adam was playing on the huge chunks of ice. On the "frozen" mud flats.

.....he wouldn't listen to me anyway, so I just let him go and took pictures!

Waiting for Adam.... I had to drag him away!

Well, that was our Valentines weekend. Adam worked while I puppy-sat on Saturday. We also had a fabulous date Sunday night......getting our taxes done! BUT it is nice to have it all over with......our first tax-time experience together!

I had today off, for President's Day. All I did was clean and do housework... Angel followed me and watched all day.

We will continue the house hunt on Wednesday. We saw 6 houses last Wednesday night, a couple possibilities, but nothing that really screamed "BUY ME!" Just waiting for the right one to come along. Eagle River is a town about 20-30 minutes away. It is a GORGEOUS community and you can get a whole lot more for your money in houses there. The negative is the commute...there is only one road to/from Eagle River--Anchorage. It happens to be a highway, but in the winter or if there is an accident, the commute can be 1+ hours. But we do have some friends who live out there....we may check a few out. Ideally, we would like to stay in Anchorage.

Oh... summer plans thus far

*June 3(i think)... I will come home to Iowa. Adam will be back the 10th for a wedding. We will return to Alaska together on the 13th.

**July 1 we leave for Sanibel for JESSI/GRANT'S WEDDING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We will return to Alaska on the 12th.

***July 14-21 Jenny and Nathan will be visiting! Whoop whoop!!!!

****July 23-August 7 Kevin and Jeanette will be visting! Whoop whoop whoop!!!!

*****Sometime in September... Grandma Ruth and Jeanette will be visiting!

wooooooooooweeeeeeeeeeeee, summer is going to be AmAzInG! Also, our friends Shawn and Erin just bought a pop-up camper. We may be buying a house....but we might not actually stay in it until August! hehe!
