Have a Blessed Sunday

God’s glory can be seen in all creation from watching a flower bloom as it grows from the tiniest seed or hiking up the tallest peaks overlooking vast valleys, to listening to birds sing or just sitting still.

May we never take these glimpses for granted. They are a beautiful reminder of the gift we have through Christ’s death and resurrection and a promise of his coming.

Have a blessed Sunday ❤️

Dipnetting the Copper River, Chitina

We recently had the opportunity to Dipnetting for Salmon. While there are many locations in Alaska to fish, the Copper River in Chitina offers some of the best Salmon in the entire State.

Dipnetting can become very dangerous if not equipped properly, and it is best to prepare before hand by learning more about the Copper River, equipment needed and safety.

As a household of 5, we are permitted to catch up to 65 salmon. This time, however we did not catch any which only means we will be back soon.

Please find dipnetting resources below to learn more and please don’t hesitate to send any questions you may have.

Alaska State Cabins

 

After a long winter, it was time for our annual Cabin snow machine trip. There are so many things we love about this family tradition, the time to recharge, spend time in God’s creation, making family memories and exploring new things together…There are too many to count. After a fun first day at the cabin, we spend the next day snow machining to another State Cabin and enjoyed the rest of the day homeschooling, making dinner and playing games.

As promised in the video, please find information regarding Alaska State Cabin by following the link below, They are a great resource for budget friendly traveling and exploring new beautiful areas Alaska.

2019 Yukon Quest | Live from the Finish Line

What an incredible experience we had this Monday. We had press pass access to the Yukon Quest – Official Site Finish Line Event. We welcomed Brent Sass from Wild and Free Mushing as he crossed the finish line as champion of the 2019 Yukon Quest.

Never have we seen such humility and love for dogs. From the Yukon Quest staff, to the mushers and all the incredible volunteers, so much passion and love is invested into these dogs.

Congratulations Brent and all the other mushers!
