Sorry it took so long to get these pictures posted, but life is really busy right now, what can I say. We sure had a lot of fun hanging out together with each other and also with the family. It has been almost one year since Camarron has seen any of his family. So this was a great chance for everybody to catch up a little bit.
Also, just to update what is going on in our lives, I am going to school full time again and Cam is working hard. I am almost 6 months pregnant and our baby is due on the 24th of December. Cross your fingers that she comes after the 8th so I can finish my finals and before the 23rd so we aren't in the hospital over Christmas.
(Just a head's up, these pictures aren't really in order so sorry if they don't flow very well.)
This was on our camping trip. We drove out to Sunshine cove and walked a long the beach throwing rocks and just enjoying the sunshine. I love this picture of my husband just walking by the ocean.
If you notice the picture at the top of our blog, it is taken from almost the exact same place. We couldn't quite get down to the rock that we took it on last time (which is the rock you see behind me) because the river was SO high from all the rain.
Camarron with his parents.
This is just outside his parents house.
This is the Mendenhall Glacier.
Here we are back at sunshine cove sitting on the beach.
Sunshine Cove
When this float plane flew over out heads I thought Cam was going to start crying he was so excited! He said to me, "That is what I want to fly here!"
More of beautiful Sunshine Cove.
This was out at Auke Rec. where we camped and Cam made us a wonderful fire.
Unfortunately this was the biggest fish Cam caught our entire trip. No it is not a salmon...it is called a "double ugly"...at least that is what the locals call it. This fish is actually a type of rock fish. It has a huge mouth and lots of spines on its back and fins.
I just love how clear the water is in Alaska.
This was out by Auke Rec where Cam went fishing and I explored the tide pools.
Our camp site
My husband happy as can be fishing off the coast line.
This is Camarron trying to show up his brother Shilo. We went on a walk and they both started to run and jump off the side of the large trees. The things that boys do for entertainment...
Shilo, jumping a little higher than Camarron.
As you can see, my husband is trying to figure out how to do better than his younger brother.
We went out to eat with Shilo and some friends that are in Juneau working for the summer.
We went downtown for an afternoon and played "tourist". We went into this store that had a whole bunch of toys. Cam and Shilo found this weird, growdy, stretchy thing that Cam put over his face. He said it smelled even worse than it looked.
Unfortunately these were the only killer whales I saw on our trip.
You should have seen the looks we were getting while taking these pictures. Because the whales were hanging from the ceiling, Cam had to lie down on the ground to take the pictures. There were hundreds of people shopping in this huge store and Cam was laying down right in the middle of the floor so I could have pictures of these killer whales. What a great husband I have.
Shilo being a tourist downtown.
Downtown Juneau
Glacier Gardens
Cam's brother Shilo and also his sister Chantilli work at this place called Glacier Gardens. Shilo took us on a tour up the mountain to see all of the flowers and plants. I loved it!
Notice the upside down tree stuck back into the ground with flowers growing out of the roots.
Over looking the Juneau Valley and the channel from the top of the mountain.
One of Camarron's favorite things to do while in Juneau was to go and play ball with the missionaries. So we went on Tuesday mornings so Cam could play with the Elders and also some of the RM's that went back to work in Juneau.
This is the glacier at dusk reflecting back in the lake.
We went and tried to have a BBQ at Auke Rec. However, after being there for about 30 minutes, a park ranger came and told us that there was a "No burn" restriction because of all the fires that were in Canada and all of the smoke that was in the air. Kind of strange to me, but whatever. Anyway, the guys ended up throwing the marshmallows at each other because we couldn't roast them.
Camarron fishing and catching nothing but a Double Ugly.
One of our favorite places to eat at is the Thai Kitchen. While we were there I dared Cam to bite into a lime. I told him that I would eat one if he bit into one. He just roled his eyes at be because I love limes and eat them voluntarily. However, I finally got him to do it and this was his reaction. It made me laugh really hard.
We did get to go whale watching while we were there and there were a ton of humpback whales.
