One of our favorite things...

SO..


One of the things that we have here in Alaska during the winter is "Ice Fog". It is basically a fog of small ice crystals. There are a few awesome benefits of ice fog. First, the morning after a good ice fog everything is sparkly white and beautiful. The second benefit is pictured below. It is much more amazing in person, the picture doesn't do it justice, but it will help picture what we are saying. The ice fog is so thick that any bright light is "captured" as a beam, straight into the sky. So you can look around and see dozens and dozens of beams of light shooting straight up!! It is SO awesome! This is a picture off of our deck of some of the highway lights about 1/2 mile away.


This is one of the things that we enjoy about winters here, so we thought we would share it!!

Almost Christmas...

Hello!!

We are 5 days away from Christmas and both Sherri and I are VERY excited and VERY much in the Christmas spirit!!

Here is a quick update as to what we have been up to recently:
  • We both have our Christmas shopping finished and our house is feeling very festive! Here is a picture of our tree!!
______________________________
  • Every year the Captain Cook Hotel (where we were married) does a HUGE ginger bread town display. It is amazing! Last night we went to see it with some friends. Here is a picture!

  • We are very much looking forward to Christmas Eve. We are going to the 4pm service at church and then having dinner at home. We are having Penne pasta with vodka sauce and reindeer sausage! Its a great "Alaska meets Italy" dish.

We love you all and hope that you have a GREAT Christmas!!

A Night On The Town...




This coming Friday (Decmeber 7th), Sherri and I, along with Jason and Jana and Tim and Jana, are going to the opening night of Mel Brooks "The Producers". The broadway tour of the play will be here in Anchorage for 5 days and we are REALLY looking forward to seeing it! Sherri and I are BIG fans of the movie with Nathan Lane, Matthew Broderick and Will Ferrell.

We are all going to meet downtown for dinner before the play and enjoy a night out "On The Town"

You may be suprised to know that Anchorage has a HUGE arts scene and brings up many national plays and artists. It is one of the things that we love most about Anchorage! There is always something "artsy" going on!
