This is going to be our summer of grand adventure. We are memory-making like never before as a testament and celebration to the joy that fills our lives. We are living once in a lifetime experiences and cherishing the moments.
The kids tackle a bear in Denali National Park.
Family selfie time - this was the picture that made us decide to finally buy a selfie stick. World, stay tuned!
Our lovely friends, the Riddles, gave us matching vacations shirts and we were only too happy to debut them in Girdwood Alaska.
Walking through an old avalanche site on the Alyeska resort. We bought a jogging stroller to use for Jonah instead of his wheelchair and it was the best decision yet as gave us a lot of flexibility.
Speaking of flexibility, while in Seward, Julia decided to practice some of her ballet stretches.
Julia managed to take this sweet photo booth picture all on her own at the Alaska SeaLife Center in Seward, Alaska.

Julia isn't the biggest fan of dogs, but when they're 3 days old they don't seem that bad. We toured Happy Trails, which is run by Martin, a 4 time winner of the Alaskan Iditarod race, and these are his latest batch of puppies.
Jonah loves dogs no matter how big or small - these tiny puppies were a huge hit.
Anna really loved the puppies. One of them that she was snuggling even crawled up her chest and tried to get into the sleeve of her jacket. It was so sweet.
Julia loves dandelions, and in Alaska there were tons of dandelions!

Jonah was happy to horde Julia's castoff dandelions.
Anna wasn't as interested in the dandelions, but she was more than willing to help push Jonah so that he could enjoy the journey and horde dandelions.
Because of our mobility constraints, the kids are a bit deconditioned and were happy to take a photo break on our hike in Girdwoood near Alyeska.
At the top of the mountain at Alyeska there's still snow and risk of avalanche (hence the fencing), but that didn't stop a little bit of good natured snowball throwing.
