A BIG thank you to Ron and Bridget for
some help w/my banner once again;)

Then after picking Olivia from school Friday we were off to Big Lake for the weekend 
don't you just love these moments lol!!

This was Saturday morning the view was so awesome!

Then we were off to Hatcher's Pass for a day of snow machining!! :0
This was the view!!

This was us at the Mother Load Lodge(it was bright)!!

then the kids wanted a photo together(say cheese!)

Then it was time to GO SLEDDING!!!!
This was the highest and longest sledding hill I have ever seen
it was awesome!!!

The only part not fun was walking up it ever time lol!!!
Can you see the kids @ the bottom?

Hunter and Danielle
They went down together 4 times!!

Olivia was to tired to go down for a while!!

I had to take a photo of myself so you can see how high we were!!
Then we were off to the lodge to eat some lunch.

The kids love eating together lol!!
psss.. Rick lets get a photo(hee,hee)!!

Then the TEAM photo
Rick and these guys are entering the Arctic Man next week
so they were practicing while we were sledding.

Then after lunch we were off again to go snow machine w/the kids!!

Here is Olivia READY to GO!!!
Then a friend of ours brought his 120 for the kids to ride lol!!

There goes Olivia!!

psss..Rick another photo(hee,hee)
 
This is Olivia and her friend Dani(its a girl)!!
She took Olivia everywhere on the snow machine.

Even Hunter was really into it to!!
I have a video of him and Rick will show later!!


Can you see the mountain behind me we were up there!!

After it was time to load them all up and head to the cabin it was about 4pm!!


Then while Rick was cooking dinner we got a call that the volcano erupted and
Anchorage got a lot of ash.  Then around 8:30 or 9pm it got to Big Lake but not much.

So that night after dinner Dani cook us some cup cakes and then
the kids got to frost them they loved that part lol!!
(Thanks Dani!!)

Then SUNDAY morning we had a huge breakfast with  Larry and Dani
(sorry to early for got camera @ my cabin)

After they packed and left we played (for the third time) checkers with the kids.

They were playing with Rick gear lol!!
We also took a quick fam photo before going home;(

Then when we get home WOW!!!
there was ash every were I took a photo of it on Ricks truck
(this photo is more for the lower 48)

Well it has came and gone we can all take a deep breath now!!
I was praying that we would all be together when it happened and not the kids in school
or Rick @ work and God truly answered my prayer.  We were together and safe!!
What a way to END a weekend
THANKING GOD!!
