In the spirit of the Iditarod...

Winter is coming to end finally. It is much more enjoyable knowing that its almost over.

My first

The Look of Success!

Spent a day trip to the Denali Highway looking for ptarmigan (a hen-like bird). Didn't have any luck with the birds, but a side trip to Healey landed us some rabbits. My goal was to get my first "kill." I finally (and I do mean finally) succeeded with a rabbit. It was an awesome day. Perfectly clear, no wind, and good company.

Boys' Science Fair Projects

Knik Elementary Science Fair

Kace helping out at the Haiti Relief Fund Raiser

Kace's Experiment: Citrusity

He made batteries out of a Lemon, a Lime, and a Grapefruit to see which produced the most electricity.

Karter's "EggSperiment"

He demonstrated the difference between Fresh Water and Salt Water density with an egg.

The Knik Elementary Science Fair was a good experiment in children and parent bonding. Kace and the 5th Graders were required to do an experiment, while Karter's 3rd grade class had the option. Both projects turned out, and though a challenge to do 2 science fair projects, were a good experience for the boys.

After the Concert....

Kendra made the Honor Choir again this year. Choir members from all Mat-Su Borough Middle Schools tryout for the Honor Choir, so we are very proud of Kendra. She made it last year as an Alto and her goal this year was to make it as Soprano, which she did.

Kace's Birthday

Kace turned 11 today. We all went swimming, and then stopped at Burger King. Kace then helped Calli make him a carrot cake for his choice of cake.

Kenni Volleyball

Kendra's Volleyball season started this week. We will be adding pictures as the season goes on. Her first games were at Teeland Middle School.

Snowmen versus the Wind

Currently dealing with 30-50mph winds, gusts up to 70...you can see the branch pieces on the wind groomed snow in the pictures. Drifting snow is serious business. Unfortunately our snowmen also met their match. The gusting wind blew their heads right off, the smaller one refused to give up his hat...

"He waved goodbye, Saying don't you cry, I'll be back again some day..."
