Our Trip To Alaska!






We had a great opportunity to visit Regan's parents in Anchorage, Alaska for a whole week! I think Regan's favorite part of the whole trip was all of the delicious food we ate {what's new?} The best for him was having all you can eat fresh crab in downtown Anchorage. Riley's obviouslly was the chocolate! The very last day we were there, we finally saw a moose in the backyard! Riley was excited at first, then annoyed when it wouldn'leave because he wanted to go in the hot tub! After more than an hour, it finally moved!

Anchorage was just a beautiful place and we really enjoyed our week stay there!
Thanks to Bud & LeeAnn for being great hosts to us! We had a great time!

Candy & Hikes






We went to a candy factory and the kids had a hard time deciding what to get since they could only choose 1 thing! Riley wanted the $43 chocolate fish, but we told him he needed to get something else! Regan however did not have a hard time deciding what to get-a hand dipped chocolate ice cream bar with sprinkles! yum!
The other picture is at Flat Top overlooking all of Anchorage! It is such a beautiful place!

26 Glacier Cruise






My favorite part of the trip was going on a 26 glacier cruise! The glaciers were so amazing and we also saw a glacier calf, which meas that some of the ice falls off into the water! They were beautiful and it was a fun cruise ride!

Regan's Family


I had never seen this funny picture of Regan's family! I just had to take a picture of it because it was so silly!

Zoo & Office






We went down the street to the Anchorage Zoo one day! It was so awesome because it was tucked away in a forest with a bunch of natural animals to the habitat! Elle was pretty wiped out during the trip! We also went to Bud's office. He works for the Denali Pipeline.

Lots to do






We had a fun activity planned for us each day we were in Anchorage! Regan and his dad spent a day fishing on the Kenai River, we went to a Children's Museum, the Anchorage Temple, A candy factory, downtown Anchorage, parks, a boardwalk and a fabulous 26 glacier cruise! LeeAnn & Bud were such great hosts to our family! We even had a hot dog and smore night around the fire!

Gramma & Grampa's House






Regan's mom & dad live in Anchorage, Alaska and we had a great time staying in their beautiful home for a whole week! Dhabi, their dog wasn't so happy to see us come on his territory though! Sunny was either really scared of him, or trying to be his friend the whole time! It was good to spend some time with Gramma & Grampa Fackrell since we don't see much of them since they live so far away!
