Respect

Every Spring, all across Alaska a "Choose Respect" walk is organized for locals to stand up against Domestic Violence and Sexual Crimes.

Our walk was short, but sweet.  The weather was sunny and -25 degrees below zero.  I forgot to wear snow pants!

Outside Shots

February and March is when the sun finally wakes from it's winter slumber south of the equator and graces us with a few more minutes of daylight each day.  That doesn't mean it's warm though.  This is why there is a huge lack of outdoor photos.  All you'd see is cold, snow and frost!

Cheer Camp

Husky Cheer Camp is also another fun time the kids look forward to when the weather isn't too nice to us.  My youngest daughter attends any and all cheer camps, even though I'm secretly pushing her to play basketball!

Husky Basketball

February and March mark the days of high school basketball up here.  The Kotzebue Huskies are, obviously, my favorite team.  I graduated from there, my mom graduated from there, and my son (#22) will graduate from there too.  Go Huskies! 

First Dances

 My beautiful niece attended her first dance at the Middle School.  I "chaperoned" for them!

Wedding Fun

We were blessed to attend the wedding of our good friends Bryan and Geri in Anchorage this weekend.  It was magical.

Playing out.

There may not be a lot to "do" above the Arctic Circle.  But there is ALWAYS snow, and hills to play on.  And when you're a kid.  That's all you need.
