Lyndsey tried hard to be brave after seeing her sister suffer.








Don't let them see your pain, Ash!!!



Feed it to Dallin--He likes it!!! (or fakes it well)

Salmon fishing in beautiful Valdez

The rains came down and the floods came up!

The basement (and the whole base) flooded the week we after we moved in. Fun times!

































Ashley and Dallin helped me remove the soaked
carpet!

Enjoying the land!

Some nice pink Trout we caught out of Moose Lake behind our house~













Chokecherry picking! We saw this mama moose and her twins stripping chokecherries out of a tree as we rounded the corner back to our house! Dave cooked our first moose (not the mama and her twins) yesterday! It was delicious!
