4-wheeling Trip

A couple weeks ago Gj and Daniel went on a 4-wheeling trip to Captain Cook state park, along with some friends. We travled through rugged terrain with obstacles some would try their best to avoid. The journey was long and treacherous, one of the other guys barely came out alive. All of us with our brute strength, including Daniel's "incredible" strength, had to get him out of the unforgiving BOG's of DOOM! Luckily with all our strength, including Daniel's "incredible" strength, we were able to pull him free from the grasps of evil! The turning point of our journey brought us to the coastline, and for the trip back home we had to face the pacific waters with their frequently changing tides. We began our journey home watching the waters carefully, watching its everymove....well I was anyway (Daniel). However, in the midst of our travels back to the mainland we came to a house. This house was no ordinary house, becuase it was not only built on a rock but the rock was founded on the sand! How ironic, huh? Nonetheless, our journey wasn't over yet, and neither were the changing tides. Near the end the tides began to rise, and we realized we must make haste to the mainland. Evidently, through many dangers, toils, and snares...we won! Now I see, what 4-wheeling is all about.

P.S. That last part was taken from the hymn, "Amazing Grace", lol! Nice, huh?

Emma went swimming

Our church had a summer picknic on the lake. It was cold and rainy just perfect picknic weather for true Alaskans:) Kids went swimming in the lake and Emma did as well. I let her to be in the water only for 5 or so minutes and she loved it so much:) She was cold and she was shaking too but so happy!

She is going to take two weeks of swimm lessons at the end of July:)
