Alaska Days

Last year Brynn had planned on going to Alaska to visit some friends. That didn't end up happening, so she had a huge airline credit that she needed to use up. Ken was going to go with her but knew that he wouldn't be able to keep up with her since he needs to have his knee replaced. (YUCK!)

So, to celebrate her master's degree, we went on a cruise to Alaska.



WE went zip-lining - Brynn loved it!


One morning we woke up to balloons around the door and a sign on the door congratulating her on her graduation. One night at dinner they brought her a big chocolate cake and a group of waiters singing "Happy Graduation to You" to he.


We loved our cruise ship - yummy food - we were up on the Lido deck and the hamburger grill was right close to our room. I think Brynn only caved for the fries once (that I knew of).

Easter Egg Hunt 2010

I think that the Easter Bunny must have work up on Ground Hog Day instead of Easter! Holy cow was it cold. Amber and Ella came to the Easter Egg hunt at the park, but we were bundled up like we were going snowmobiling...



Easter Sunday Brunch
Everyone came for breakfast so they would have the afternoon with the next set of parents. Ella was excited to see all the Easter baskets and wasn't so happy when she had to wait to go outside and find her's in the grass.




After breakfast the kids took their post-meal nap. We broke out the old Fisher Price toys that I have saved for the last 20 years and Ella had a great time playing with them while the boys napped.
