Dog yard dogs

Alaska is known for the dogs. These two dogs are some of the common dogs seen in our village. In all of the years of living in the bush, the traditional husy is not used for work dogs. As you can also see the dog in the dogs house is tied about 3 or 4 feet from its house. Not much room to move around!

Driving at an early age

Kids here learn how to drive snowmachines and four wheelers at a very early age. This is two little girls, one in first grade and the other in second grade driving a mini snowmachine.

Family Fun!!!

Last weekend was the first time that we had the opportunity to go out and drive around the village as a family. We had a great time. This was Gavin's first big ride this year. Last year he went out when he was really young but now he lets us know that he likes it, just as we all do. Hopefully the weather will hold up for our family trip out tomorrow.

"Higgy- Back Ride"

Connor and Gavin love to get piggy back or"higgy-back" rides from mommy all the time. This time, I carried Connor and picked up Gavin and started walking around with them. I love spending time with these two little guys!
