Alaska 2010

Brenda (Ely's mother in law) and I had been planning this trip to Alaska since November last year. This trip met my expectations. I think I will try again next year. And no, I did not see Sarah Palin. The Carnival Spirit, during the summer, leaves from Seattle on every Tuesday. The stops are: The Tracy Arm Fjord, Skagway, Juneau (the Capital of Alaska), Ketchikan and the last port before heading back to Seattle (the following Tuesday) is Victoria, BC, Canada.

I have more pictures posted on Facebook...

Aurora is 3 years old!

Aurora turned 3 yesterday. Grandma Linda brought a little cake and she practiced at blowing the candles several times. She'll have her birthday party with friends and family on January 31.
Happy Birthday Aurora. God bless you

Mommy & Daddy, Big and Little Sister, Small Feet.
Today was a wonderful day. Aurora is officially a BIG sister. Her little sister Ava was born at 1:05 pm. 6 lb 7 oz and 18" long. She and her mommy are well. Thank you God for little miracles.

Chair Rails for the Masden Girls

Aurora's and Ava's rooms are almost ready. They both got new paint, chair rails and beddings to match. Hopefully the Masdens will finish all this work before the baby (Ava) comes in the next couple of weeks.
