we made it to Seattle!

Brad and I safely traveled to the beautiful city of Seattle. We’re watching some Alone and will be going to bed soon…it’s been a long and fun day of travel. 

preparing for Alaska

Packing and doing end of the month tasks as we are getting ready to leave for Alaska. Grouted my stepping stone, went on my end of the month hike and updated my carry on address that I inherited from Mom ❤️

To finish the day, I went on a 5.5 mile hike at Willow River with three great friends. We celebrated with ice cream at Knoke’s

Hanging out in my classroom to beat the stifling heat and humidity! My classroom is getting close! 

prairie morning

Kurt hosted us on the farm after the wedding and we got some golden opportunities to spend time seeing the beautiful animals and land. We also had lunch together and saw Kent and Eden going through the drive thru at    A & W. We then went over to visit Grandma B. She knew us and visited for quite a while! It was a gift. 

hello Mr & Mrs Blomgren

A lovely day on the prairies of southern Minnesota celebrating the love and marriage of our handsome nephew Evan to the beautiful bride Brooke. Anders, Ally, Brad, Osten and I were able to attend together (we missed Katie and Christian). We were star struck meeting a Vikings legend, Paul Krauss, who was a guest of the bride. So excited for Brooke and Evan as they start their marriage!
