Ok. September was a crazy, fun, busy, awesome month for me! September 1st Ethan and I headed off to meet Grandma and Grandpa Keller and Uncle Kim in Alaska to go fishing! What a blast. It was fun to spend a few days with Ethan, even if it wasn't as cool for him as it was for me, I think over all he put up with me and enjoyed the trip. He loved every kind of fishing we did up there in Ketchikan Alaska. Now I didn't put every picture we took, but I did put a lot of them, so heads up there will be some scrolling to get through them all.
I sent Ethan home with all of the fish so he could make it to Comicon with Grayce. They had a great time together and Grayce got to meet and take pictures with Spider-man. Tom Holland.
I on the other hand caught a flight out of Washington and headed back to Alaska. I went up to Anchorage to stay the week with Amy and Mary. They were the best tour guides ever! We headed out the next morning to see Denali national park on our way to Fairbanks to chase some norther lights. We saw some moose and an arctic wolf on our journey. Then we stopped and rode bikes around the North Pole and spent the rest of the trip chasing glaciers! Road side glaciers, lake glaciers (where we took a train, bike and kayak to get to it) and a cruise to a glacier out in the bay. Alaska was so beautiful and amazing, I really had no idea what I was getting into and I go back again in a heart beat. I saw three different types of whales while we were out and about too.
I got home from Alaska just in time to do a load of laundry and pack everyone up to go to Idaho fro Maggie and Cody's wedding. So fun to see her so happy and to be around family.
Of course I wasn't quite done vacationing just yet. My New York group of girl friends took a trip down to Lake Powell. Thanks to Bridget for making it happen and Jen for planning crafting activities we had a wonderful time boating around and seeing different places. We hiked/walked through a slot canyon, boated clear out to Rainbow Bridge, up a couple canyons and out to the damn. We had lunch on the water and slept on the house boat. It was great to just relax and hang out together.
Troy and Percy having a bonding moment, hahaha. And I got back in time for these two Seniors to take dates to Homecoming Dance. They got a big group together and we did dinner at our house. Ethan asked Shaylee, who he met up at Utah Business Week and Ana asked a friend from Viewmont HS.
