This post has a lot of pictures but the text will be brief! Keep in mind I don't post pictures of the kiddos on the blog because it is viewable by anyone. (well closeups anyway)
Fishing at Clunie Lake-- I was bored so Tundy and I went skiing. Had a minor incident with wolves, will never ski there again!
Pullin out rainbows and lake salmon
Tundy and his buddy Eiko, just hanging out and chewin on bones!
Ho! Ho! Ho! Moose burgers!
Skiing with Brittany and Riley on the trail across the river

Part of my Christmas present from Kati- 10lbs of grape Mike and Ikes- or Jolly Joes! These make me jolly!

The whole crew went, after we got back Kane and Brooklyn wanted to play outside more despite the temp-- we played in the hay loft!

Tundy wearing Adam's first tye! So hansome!
Yet another toy- an Iowa skunk from Gpa and Gma Kucera
Not even 1/2 his toys! I guess the new favorite is the skunk!
Believe it or not it's hard to keep my class geared up for recess, even in Alaska! Parents will drop off their kids without a coat, let alone snowpants/boots/cloves/hats etc during negative temperatures! My sis-in-law Jess proposed her work team's quarterly donation project be winter gear for my kiddos. Adam and I rbought home LOTS of gloves/snowpants/hats/scarves/coats from her coworkers. The card says "Thank you for helping to keep our hands and bodies warm"

Jacket was fine, but goggles didn't last long!

The rest of our group practicing rescue with beacons
Day 2 in the field was digging snow pits and checking the layers

Day 3 in the field was planning routes and using the terrain to our advantage-- ESPECIALLY in this 35 degree, rainy RED LIGHT weather!
Short and sweet this time. Might add more later, busy day today! \

HAPPY NEW YEAR!
