Alaska here we come!

Packed & ready to go!





First plane ride

Together at last


We are in ALAKSA!



So less than a month ago we began our journey to Alaska.  Josh left 2 1/2 weeks before us to prepare the way.  He was hoping to get settled prior to us arriving, he got settled into work but not settled into home:)  The reunion was great and we are so happy to be with daddy again.  Weather is a little different than what we are used to back home in Washington, but hey different isn't always bad!  So blessed to be part of ACF church & excited to begin what God has called us here to do in Eagle River, AK!  Josh had some small bumps in the road along the way, but God was so faithful.  Day 1 the battery in our truck went dead, okay not so bad.  Day 2 the alternator went.  It was Saturday afternoon, in the middle of no where, really should there be a shop open?  It's great we aren't in control.  There just so happened to be a shop open and they had the part.  1 1/2 hrs later the boys were back on the road.  Day 3 a tire blew on the trailer, in the middle of no where!  By this time when I talked to Josh on the phone he was pretty wore out.  Day 4 they arrived safely in Eagle River, AK!!!  What trip, so thankful that Josh and his brother Troy did it, and let me and the kiddos do the 3 hr flight!  God is so good and so faithful, can't wait to see what's next.
