Alaskan Adventure: Day of the Kids

Today most of the adults headed out to go fishing for halibut while the rest of us were up to the task of watching all the kiddos.

It was a bit on the exhausting side, but any time I get with all the nieces and nephews is definitely time well spent.

We spent our day biking, wrestling, and playing at the park!



Sophia and Maddy Mae


Henry Man



Jack and Benny Boo




The girls swinging with Uncle Jon



Sammies playing in the sand


Henry Man going "down" the slide



It's slightly embarrassing when your 3 1/2 yr old nephew successfully makes it across the balance beam better than you do...



Uncle Jon was the robber and the kids were chasing him down






Mari making her way across the bars and Mason enjoying our bike ride.


I so enjoy being able to spend all of this time with the kids. It makes me a little sad that the time we get to spend together is so far and few between. But we're making it up for it with lot's and lot's of time together this vacation :)

I'm wondering what my odds would be of convincing all of my sibling to move to Colorado so this isn't such a rare occurrence...

Tomorrow... white water rafting!!
