Cousins come to Alaska!



My sister Katie and her boys, Ben and Sam came to visit!



We were so excited!  The boys had the time of their life!  They spent hours building a zipline in the back yard and hours jumping on the tramp.  we did lots of hiking, shopping, and exploring.  We were exhausted!


One day it was so warm (really in the 80's) so we took them to Mirror Lake.  They had a great time rafting and having water gun fights.  Nathan Ben swam across the whole lake (remember, Alaska water isn't warm) to the Scout Camp.  Katie took the boat over to rescue Ben, but Nate swam back.


We also took them over to Lake Hood.  This is the largest water airport in the USA.  We watched some planes land and take off, and wished we could fly on one!
