Family Reunion

The girls arrived around midnight Sunday night. We were all very glad to be back together! I think S missed them as much as I have and just won't admit it. We had thought we would relax around the hotel room Sunday and just enjoy being back together. However, Nana and Papa had different plans. They woke up as excited about being Ak as the girls were, although I think some of the excitement wore off when Nana realized how much snow was still on the ground and all she had was sandals. So after bundling up, we had bought some warmer shoes and jackets the day before so Nana borrowed S tennis shoes that are several sizes too big, we left to check out Anchorage. We found a nice park and walking trail just along the water however it didn't take long to get cold and hungry and we were on the move again. After lunch we took a quick trip down to Seward to check out a sea life museum. We didn't make it in time to really get to check out the sea life so we enjoyed the beaches and wildlife from the road. There were several otters playing and eating just off the shore that were very entertaining. We have now sent Nana and Papa off to explore Anchorage by themselves while the kids nap. today has been a little more relaxed and the past several weeks are definitely catching up to me. I can't wait to have a home again and get out of my suitcases!!!
