Visit from Marks Parents!

We just got back from an absolutley delightful trip to Anchorage with Marks mom and step-dad. Of course, we had to make a stop in Denali, drive through as much of the wildlife preserve as we could with our own vehicle, try the Denali dinner theater, and stay in the Mt. McKinley Chalet! Awesome experiance! Then, we continued our trip with a stop in Wasilla to visit the house Marks step-dad built back in the late 80's before we made it into Anchorage! We had a delightful evening in Anchorage with a stay in the Ramada Inn! Then, after we dropped Ed and Debbie off at the airport this morning, we made one last stop with the boys at the Anchorage Zoo! Carson slept through it, but Caleb LOVED it! It was fun to get to see some of AK's animals up close! On our way to Anchorage we saw one moose on the road, and on our way home we spotted two along the side of the road! I never was able to get a picture in time... but it was thrilling to see them!:)


Here are a few "scenic pictures"... I know my grandma and aunt will especially like to see these:)





Ed, Debbie and Carson enjoying Denali Dinner Theater... Pictures to come of Ed playing the roll of the "hero" in part of the play! Such a fun experiance!

This is the house Ed built back in the '80's. The front portion (from the downspout forward) is an addition thats been made by more recent owners. Ed was thrilled to see it still standing! :)

The Zoo was really pretty! Lots of bridges and trees, had to take a few pictures! Unfortuniatley, Carson slept the ENTIRE time we were there and it was pretty chilly, so we kept him bundled up in his carseat:)

















Pictures of the animals will be on a different post, as there are quite a few of them! More pictures to come as soon as I get them downloaded off my phone:)
