Taking on Alaska: Round Two!

I thought it was well over due, a blog with pictures! Here are some photos that have been taken since being back from Christmas break. Weekend walks always entail lots of photos of the ice, snow and cold. There is a few pictures of the “drying rack” used to try fish in the summer, now barren with snow and ice. 

And most importantly, the pictures of my “Battle of The Books” kiddos! I am so very proud of my 3/4th Grade team AND 5/6th Grade team! They have read books, answered comprehension questions, got T-shirts and most importantly ENJOYED READING!! 

We are at around 7 hours of day light now, more light in the afternoon than int he morning. We’ve had some crazy wind chills lately around -48. Today we have had snow. Nothing better than watching it snow all day.

I have been sick twice since returning back to the village, I had the flu for a good 7 days. Now I have a cold, so its me the couch a book and some video games later today with Emma. 

I am shocked that there are only 3 more months until I will be flying home for Summer vacation! Year 2 is ALMOST complete and I just can not believe that!! 

Hugs and Kisses from the cold Arctic
