Our world on Saturday looked like this. Driving down Palmer Wasilla Highway toward Palmer, the mountains ahead were gorgeous. Could have sat out there all day long and watched the clouds making them completely different every could of minutes.

Jumped in the car and took a 20 minute spin outdoors with the camera. Glad I did. Woke up Sunday to the world covered in white ... not just the mountains. Brock survived a nerve wracking "playing family taxi" day on Monday. His first experience with the driving in the white stuff. Hoping the weather gives me a chance this weekend to grab some photos ... and I'll share.

In other stuff over here:
- Blayde is still studying ... Accounting and CAD this 5 week block of classes
- Alyx is being the High School Senior and working at the assisted living facility
- Brock is working at getting a job and it looks like he will hit the Honor Roll this semester
- Anna has school, nose in the book and friends keeping her busy
- Tia is Tia
- The cabin now houses Blayde and Fred Kako ... he moved up here nearly a month ago
- Samuli, a Finn foreign exchange student, is living here with us going to the Colony with the kids and will be here until May. It has been a learning experience for all of us!
- I'm still working 40 hours a week ... hopefully passing out more pain pills than puke buckets while I'm there during the day.
- Jari has been working at whatever he can get his hands on. Doing small remodeling jobs and whatnot. He has also been working on the storage room in the basement. It is nearly done. Now someday when I have a small bit of extra energy .... I need to go organize down there. Will be nice!
- We cook, clean, laugh, study, run our tails off being busy at who knows what, and are generally keeping busy at making it though daily life!

x-large sizing sort of takes over the page!!

The x-large doesn't hurt; the pic
shows clear.
And Brock we're rooting for you to
make the Honor Roll. Good luck.
Make Grandma and Grandpa proud!!
I like the larger pictures! Do you know where Anna is going for Confirmation next summer?

the picture is large, but it covers up the writing on the right side of the screen...beautiful picture tho!

When we moved the large picture to
our picture file and then printed
it to bring out into the Square,
the printing did not show. dk
Anna is hoping to go to Stoney. Might mess up the kiddos going together to the same camp thing, but saves us a trip to MI, much as we enjoy it!

I seen the mountains for but a day, and I miss them mightily.
That is weird that your picture shows up big on the main page , but is the same size if you click on it. I am thinking that might be because your picture is real wide and not very high. I just might have to try find a picture that would work to crop like that to see if I am right.
I went up the mountain but once, can not wait for the day I can go again
