The Pumpkin Hunt!

Our hunt for the perfect pumpkin all started on Wednesday night after my husband got home from work. Steve told Mike that he was going to take him to town to go and find his "perfect pumpkin" that he has been talking about for about a week. So of we all went on Wednesday night to go and find some pumpkins, and to our disappointment, NOT ONE GROCERY STORE, NOTTA ONE, had any pumpkins that you couldn't put your finger through. Oh my gosh, I felt so bad for Mike. He cried the whole way home not understanding why his perfect pumpkin was not sitting in the seat next to him waiting to be carved at home. So we had to explain to him that we were going to on Thursday night and see if any stores had brought in more pumpkins. So off we went once again from one end of town to the other looking for a $2.49 Pumpkin. So finally we went to Super Store and they had brought in 6 huge crates of pumpkins. I was not very impressed with the fact that most of them were either half frozen or split in half or squishy....but I spent 30 min going through those pumpkins in the wind and the cold to find Mikes pumpkin. Holy crap I was cold...and in the car I could see both kids peering out the window waiting for me. So I found 2 pumpkins that were in perfect shape...THANK GOODNESS. I think in the 2 nights of us hunting for these pumpkins we went through a quarter tank of gas...3 bottles to keep Liam satisfied while we drove from here to kingdom come, and a bunch of toys. But in the the end the 5 dollars I spent on those pumpkins and the huge smile I saw on Mikes face was more then worth in the end. Thank you Super Store for having pumpkins, cause if ya didn't you might have had to deal with a very angry little boy...haha!

Growing Up!

My eldest son Mike (Micheal) is four years old. He is a very curious, adventuress, and silly little boy. When Mike was born he was born five and half weeks early. His birth is my eyes was the worst day of my life. I had all these thoughts and ideas of how it would go. I give birth to him, hold him and breast feed him and stare down at him in awe. To my surprise it did not go that way. He was born with the pre-mature lung disease that can occur in pre-mature babies, and especially in baby boys. I gave birth to him and he was wisked away from me. I never got to hold him, give him a kiss on his cheek, or even tell him welcome to the world. He was so sick that he had to be taken right away to the nursery where he had 2 docs and 5 nurses watching over his steady for 16 hours till a medi-vac plane came to take him to the Stollery Hosptial in Edmonton. It was not till then that I got to hold, wich was 3 days after I gave birth to him. I felt like the most horrible mother in the world for giving birth to my son to early. Anything anyone would tell me to try to make me feel better just would not work. I felt like it was my fault, and that I was the one that did this to him. It took me about 2 years to get over the fact of it and come to really realize that it was not my fault for his very early arrival. Years have past and I have a very Healthy and Happy 4 year old. Watching him grow and learn and become this most amazing little human being has been the most amazing thing to watch every day. I feel so luck to be a mother to him. Over the past 2 months my husband and I have really noticed a difference in Mike's attitude and seems to have done a lot of growing up. He does not want me to help him get dressed. Or to pour the milk into his cereal. Help him put his gloves on or even his jacket. He brushes his teeth, with my supervision, and he does a really great job! He has become very independent these days...it makes me very happy, but deep down inside I have this sense of not being needed as much as I did when he was so little and so helpless, when his life was totally in my hands. Yes, I know he is still only 4 but the needs of a 4 year is totally different then a 4 month old. His needs now are to play trains with him on the floor. To teach him is ABC's and 123's. How to treat people with respect, care and love. How to show Liam how to do things and the list goes on and on. I can not believe how time flies when you have children and how fast they grow up. For me it feels like x-mas comes every 6 months, opposed to when I was kid it just never seemed to come fast enough. I wish time would slow down just a little...a few more hours in the day. I now totally understand the meaning of enjoy your kids to the fullest cause by the time you know it they will be graduating from high school and heading of to college or university! Mike goes into Kindergarten next year...wow...kindergarten...really, next year??? Man oh man! Liam is 15 months now, and I just all of a sudden feel really old. Haha. But these years of them growing up, Im so looking forward to. Me teaching them new things, and them teaching me things as well. I have so much to look forward to!

My Place of Peace!

Growing up I never felt like I was totally at home. Never felt like this was where I was supposed to be. I always had a loving family who took care of me and showed me the right path in life. Showed me how to love and care for things and the people around me. I am I very happy with the person that I have become and am proud of what I have accomplished in my short 26 years. But living in Prince George just never felt like home to me. I don't know if any of you believe in a second life, but I have always felt that I belonged somewhere with vast wilderness, and somewhere that you could be and feel like you are in the middle of no where. Call me crazy but this is how I felt since I was little. My dad being a hunter always took my brother and I out grouse hunting and I would always feel so excited to go as I always felt at piece being out on those logging roads hunting for grouse. I met my husband and ended up moving to the Yukon. I will never forget the drive up here from Prince George. It was the middle of the night and I was sound asleep. At the time my boyfriend in the front seat with his brother in law and my boyfriends sister (my sister in law) sitting next to me. I felt this huge rock of the car and woke up to the truck coming to stop. We had a flat tire. I came around from my sleep and looked out the window. I no that we all experience dark...but there is nothing like Yukon dark nights. I remember asking Steve where we were. We are on a gravel road and then to my amazement I looked out the window to see Northern Light. Oh wow, they were amazing...greens and blues dancing across the sky. I started to think...oh my god...where are they taking me..me being a city girl and all with the heart of a northerner. From that day on all I have been wanting to do is discover more and see more of the Yukon and the vast openes it has to offer. I have always been in awe since that cold and dark night and have never got over the beauty of it all. My husband and I are hunters and go to this place in Faro. I look forward to going to this spot every year. You can see for miles and miles. I stand on top of the noel and close my eyes. I can not ear anything...the wind at my face and suns warmth beating on me...I feel at peace....I feel like this is where I am supposed to be...Where I have always supposed to be. In the Yukon, I am home....I am home! My place of peace!

10 minutes!

As a mother of 2 little boys, my life can sometimes be very, very busy. Sometime more then I would like. Here is an idea of how my life goes on most days. Get up outta bed and head upstairs, make breakfast, play on the computer for a bit, do dishes, put a load of laundry in. Liam wakes up, make breakfast for him, put the load of laundry in the dryer, play with the boys, break the boys up from fighting over toys. Put Liam down for a nap, Put another load of laundry in. Clean the house while Liam is sleeping. Read a book to Mike, play playdough with mike. Get lunch started. Have Lunch, Head outside, Listen to Mike and Liam laugh and play for about 30 min, then listen to Liam cry cause he is not getting his way, back into the house we go. Liam goes for his afternoon nap, sometimes mike to. 2 hours of them sleeping I clean like a mad women or make phone calls that need to be made with out having children either crying, yelling, saying Mom, Mom, or having a temper tantrum on the floor. Kids get up and I start to make dinner, Have dinner, go do baths for both kids, put kids to bed, come up stairs and take a deep breath and think, wow where was that 10 min to myself today...oh well maybe tomorrow!

Happy and Healthy!

For about the past year and a bit myself and my husband have been fighting with the Docs for someone to believe when we said"MIKE CAN NOT HEAR"!. One doc will say "Oh yes there is fluid in his ears", then the other will say there is not! It was so hard to see mike standing so close to the TV to just be able to hear it. You could be talking to him and he would not hear a word you said. A lot of people just figured that he was being a typical 4 year and having that so called selective hearing. But when your you child starts to cup his ears to be able to hear, and watches your mouth to be able to understand what you are saying, I think the whole selective hearing thing goes right out the door! So finally about 4 months ago I told our doc that enough was enough and I wanted for him to see an Ear, Nose and Throat Spec. So of Mike went to see the Doc and he was like "Oh my gosh, how long has he been like this for" I was like ummm a year. He was so mad that he called right over to Dr. Storey's office and told him right on the phone that this kid needs tubs asap...in the back of my mind i was thinking..."hmmm, I like this guy". So this past Friday Mike finally got his ears dealt with along with his tonsils and adenoids removed. He was not a very happy little man when he woke up to say the least. But when he had a good sleep after and 9 popsicles later, he was up roaring around the room and playing in the kids room across from his room in the Hospital.He thought it was great to be able to lay in bed all day and watch cartoons, eat popsicles and ice cream and have people coming to see him bring presents in hand. He was on cloud 9 for a day and a half. He had his new books from Grandma and Grandpa. New game and books from Nana and Papa. New game from Aunty Laura and Uncle Chris, and a new Transformer from Mom and dad. He actually had a great time in the hospital, play and watch tv all day...who wouldn't...haha! Watching tv all day at home just does not happen! He is like a new kid. It is so nice to talk to him and he be able to hear you, not stand 3 inches from the tv just to be able to hear, or walking around with his hands cupping his ears to stream the sound better to his ear. I am so thank full for the Doctors and Nurses that took such great care of Mike. He is so much better and is back to being Happy and Healthy!

Muffins Please!

When we were up in Faro about 2 weeks ago my mother-in-law decided that she was going to make some blueberry bran muffins. And they were sooome tasty. I have been hearing from Micheal mom can Nana come to our house to make some muffins for me. So I told mike that when I needed to go to the grocery store this week that I would buy the makings to make him some muffins. So went to the store and bought all the stuff for it, phoned my mother in law for the recipe, and started to make some muffins. Holy man I should have bought another muffin tin. This recipe made five and a half dozen muffins. I was making muffins for close to 3 hours. But Mike was so excited making them with me. He helped stir all the dry ingredients and puffed flour all over him...then in went the wet ingredients and got a lot of that over himself as well. Needless to say off to the bath tub he went. He had a great time waiting for the muffins to come out of the oven and put the muffin cups in the pan. He was even more excited that the muffin cups were "LIGHTNING MCQUEEN" and " MICKEY MOUSE". He had an even better time eating the muffins as soon as they came out of the oven. Liam tugged on me saying please, please, more, more...like I don't feed these poor little monkeys. So my muffins are a hit and we all have loooooots of eating to do. Thanks Nana for a great recipe...kept the boys well entertained for 3 hours...haha!

The great escape!

It has now been a week since my husband left for Dawson City for work. I have been home with my two wonderful little boys...but by the end of the first week my house is starting to look like a cage and start to feel like I can't escape the madness of my life with two VERY BUSY LITTLE BOYS. Needless to say I think I do very well for the amount of time I am alone with them. Sometimes I just feel like I need to escape the madness. Have some me time. Me time tends to happen, if I have an appt when Steve is gone...woo hoo...haha! So about a week ago a great friend of mine invited for me to come out with her for a few hours to have some food and drinks and just relax with out having to worry about my two little men. So at 8 o'clock last night I escaped my house and went out for a few hours with some great people. Wow, it was so nice! Just to worry about me for a few hours. Every mother needs me time...and I know a lot of women that just don't get that kinda time. I am lucky to have a husband that lets me get out and do things when he is home, and he feels terrible when I phone crying saying that I am going mad. He always says that when gets home I can go out and do what ever I want for how ever long I want...So would me leaving to Hawaii for a week be ok...hmm prob not. Oh well worth a thought...haha! But thanks again Amy for inviting me out and Thanks to a wonderful girl for coming over to watch the kids while i escaped the wild monkey cage..haha!

It a tie for the biggest moose!

For years now, ever since Steve has started to hunt he has always been on the look out for the moose of his dreams...60 inches or more. We are not trophy hunters by no means as what we shot we eat all of it. But this year Steve got his biggest moose to date.

Him and his friend last Tuesday went out really early in the morning and decided that they were going to go far back into the bush about 30km back. They were back to the house that night by 8pm with big grins on there face. "Did you get one"? Steve says, "Oh we sure did"...walking back outta the house with a big smile on his face. He is always happy to get a moose as it is meat the feeds not only our family for the winter but his parents and some other friends too! So out side we went and wow...I must say it is the biggest moose I have ever seen. Both him and his friend Adam were pumped to be telling us the story of how they got it, where and most of all how BIG IT WAS. At first we measured and thought it was 57 inches. His dad just sorta chuckled and said " You have yet to beat your old man" , Bills moose is 58". Steve was a wee bit disappointed. But an hour later Bill came back into the house and said well it is a tie...your moose if 58 inches. Steve just said sweet. But I knew by just looking at him he was very proud to have a moose the same size as his dad. He was proud. But Steve is not the kinda a guy to show much emotion for anything...haha! But yes...he got his moose that he waits a year for to get and to top it off he tied with his dad. Only took 16 years but he did it! There are more pictures to come...these are the only two I have on my computer right now...of course i hate the pic of me! haha

A new bed for Mike!!!

Well the day has finally come. Time for mike to move out of his toddler bed into a Twin bed. He is such a squirmy little worm when he is in bed that I have found him half in his bed and half out. He tells me all the time that he hates his bed and wants to sleep with Liam. I have felt so bad for him for not having a bigger bed, as we just keep putting it off, putting it off. Well enough is enough and the kid kinda looks funny in his little bed. So out with old and in with the new. Mike is so excited to go and pick out his new bed and new bedding. So he will be super excited to get to sleep in his new bed tonight!

Summer Fun!!!

Well it has been a long time since I last wrote on my blog. I have sorta forgot about it. I have been so busy this summer with friends, family and life in general. What a great summer it was. This summer was full of celebrations, adventures and great memories. Myself and my husband celebrated our 3rd wedding anniversary. We had King Crab, Prime rib steaks, salads and the most delicious carrot cake from the Chocolate claim. We had a celebration of our anniversary and Steve's 29th Birthday. We got to share our celebration with my family and great friend and mom. All in all it was a fantastic dinner and great night. I also celebrated my 26th Birthday this year on July 1st. It was a great Birthday. I was spoiled thats for sure. I got my new deck and patio set. I was so happy. Had many great evenings just sitting out there watching the sunsets, watching the kids play, having water fights, making yummy meals on our bbq and just flat out enjoying my back yard! We also celebrated the boys 1st and 4th birthday with a big Birthday bash up at the Canada Games Center. We had 12 kids...not including babies and lots of adults too. We were in the play room for a bit then we were in one of the meeting rooms where it was decked out in a Mickey Mouse Party Theme. Mikes eyes were as big as saucer and his mouth dropped to the floor he was soooooo excited with the room. We had a delicious cake, lots of food, drinks and just had a great time. Then at the end of July (on Steves Birthday) my family arrived for a week visit. There was my mom, dad and brother. We had an amazing time. Going to see places, have lots of yummy meals, going for drives around town and just having fun. We all went to Skagway one day and that was so much fun. My brother has never been more north then Powder King Ski Hill. So seeing the Yukon for him was amazing and the different landscapes totally amazed him. He loved it up here. I love where I live as I am never bored of it and never get that feeling like I need to pack up and leave and find a new place to live to have new adventures. The Yukon is so full of different things to see and things to do I am never bored. Love it!!! As for my family we have all been very busy. Mike has been busy playing with all his friends at his play group and keeping Liam entertained. Liam is a super busy little boy and full of attitude that little dude...my goodness! He is so much fun...at times! Hahaha! Mike and Liam keep each other very well entertained and love each other so much. It is so nice to see! As for myself...well I have been super busy with my friends, family and the general day to day life. I have decided that enough is enough with my weight and it is time for me to melt the fat off my ass...haha! I am tired of feeling not nice about my image and with I looked the same as I did when i first met Steve. I feel like I have lost confidence in myself and just need some motivation to get back on track. So I am going to look into going the gym at the games center and have the kids in child minding while i am working out. I need to!!! I just wish that Steve was around a lot more so I could join more things and be able to get out and do the things that I would really like to do. Join cooking classes...I miss my kayaking that I used to do all the time when I lived in Jasper, do some more scrapbooking, get back into playing the piano that I used to play for 10 years, join a Yoga class, work out class, go out on more dates with my husband. I miss all these things. I just wish that I had the time to do it all again. Raising a family is definitely hard and takes away from the things that you love to do. I really do feel that I should not have to worry about not being able to do the things I used to, but I do. I just wish I had more time in the day and more help with the kids so I could. I love my kids and my husband, but too would love to do what I would like as well....oh well maybe one day I will have a moment to! As for Steve, well he has been super busy with work...work and more work. He is the boss of two jobs up in Dawson City and really is not home all that much. I wish he was home more but has to work to right? He is gone for 2 weeks and back for a week. I hate him being gone for 2 weeks then back for a week. The kids and I get onto a routine and then he come home and then we have to get back onto a new routine...and just as he leaving we are back on track then have to get back to it being just me and the kids....hate hate hate it! He is such a hard worker and loves his job so much. We have a great time when he comes back. We go to the pool, fishing, shopping, going for our much loved drives in the country, and just spend time together. Next year we are going to be purchasing a truck and camper so we are able to spend more time together and start doing some more family adventures and start doing some camping. So I am looking forward to that. I just spent a weekend in Dawson with Steve for the Discovery Days long weekend and had a freakin fantastic time. Sooo much fun. The kids went to Faro for a few days and then off I went to Dawson with a Friend and her baby girl. It was so nice to have time with just her and I and had some great one on one girl time!! Goodness I got drunk one night there...it was so nice to not have to worry about dealing with the boys the next morn with a hang over. To my suprise I felt fantastic the next morn and was up at 8 am. Steve on the other hand had a great time watching me get drunk for the first time in 2 years...yes people I know 2 years...haha! Long time coming...and it felt great! After my wonderfull weekend with the hubby was over we said our goodbyes, off to Faro I went to meet up with the kids and Steve's Mom and Dad. Had a great week there...nice and relaxing and had a great time seeing friends that we do not get to see all that often. We did lots of play time at the park and down at the rec center doing play dates. Great times. So all in all this summer was a great time. Lots of fun and great memories were created for years to come. I can only hope that next summer is just as great. We will have camper and truck next year so am sure there will be lots more stories to tell. I hope everyone had a great summer. Fall is definitely here in the Yukon and my blog should be full of fall and winter stories too.

From Drab to Fab!

I decided yesterday that I was sick of my drab room. So went yesterday to Walmart and bought some new curtons, an area rug and some new pictures to put above our bed. Wooooooooow talk about a change. Totally drap to fab. I am so happy with it. So last night I decided that I did not like our old shitty bed spread and went onto Sears and found this fantastic lookin bed spread and sham set. It is made of polyester and silk. I think this is the same set that was used in a b&b in Jasper that we stayed at a few years ago. So nice! So I am excited to have a new room. Total cost 200 bucks...mwahahaha.

My Parents Visit!

I have been cleaning my house like my parents are going to be coming tomorrow. I think I am just getting so excited to have them here. Especially my brother as this is going to be the first time that he has been to the Yukon. My parents live in Prince George, BC. The love all the places that I have been as they have been able to experience where I go as well..as the love to come and visit and explore where I am. Last year they were up here we had a great time. We kept very busy going on the Tram Car across town, went out to the hot springs, the Fish Ladder...and went for nice drives to show them many different places. My mom and dad love it up here and find it so peaceful and love the vast wilderness right out our back door. Not many places you go and drive for 5 min and you are out in the wilderness. I feel so lucky to live where I do for that reason. This year when my parents get here we plan on having a nice dinner for Steve's Birthday. We are going to be doing the River Cruise on Sunday afternoon. So should be a lot of fun. My dad is super excited about that. Hopefully the weather will be great. We plan on doing the Hot springs...the Wild life preserve, the rock climbing wall and just getting out and exploring what Whitehorse has to offer...and that is a lot. I never get bored of where I live. I am always finding new things to do and always seeing new things I have yet to see. I look forward to showing my mom, dad and brother all the different sights in and around Whitehorse...one more month and they are here...I can hardly wait...tee hee!

Beautiful Boy

It is really hard to believe that my beautiful little boy Liam is 11 months old today. It is amazing how time flys so fast when you have children. It feels like yesterday when I went into to labor and was rushing myself down to the hospital and waiting for my husband to arrive from work. It feels like yesterday when he had that new born smell. Well now he smells like dirt and food most of the time...and is into EVERYTHING. Just last week he took his first steps and felt like I was going to cry as my little baby is not turning into a little boy. I do wish sometimes that I was able to stop things in motion and enjoy him being a baby for just a little longer. But I do enjoy watching him do and discover new things ever day. Him being able to communicate with me now is great. I love it when he wakes up in the morning and has his little cry and when I open his door he has this great huge smile on his face and is ready to start his new day...and makes me happy to see him being so happy. I love my little man to death and can not wait to watch him discover more things and learn more about life and what fun and interesting things he can get into. He loves his big brother to death and man oh man those two are inseparable. Things could get interesting when they get older, and have a funny thing it will. Happy 11 months Liam, Mommy loves you and can hardly wait to start another new day with you and watch you learn and play....mwwwah!

My Crazy exploding plant!

About a year ago I bought this plant from Walmart. It was a really nice plant till all of a sudden it started to grow these 3 leaf clovers all around the base of the plant. Just in the past few months it has been growing these pod like things. When they get to be big enough....well the explode, and out shoots these little white beads all over my kitchen table. You can be sitting on the couch and hear the pods exploding and the little beads hitting the table. It is the weirdest thing....does anyone now what kinda clove this is....it drives me crazy!

Mommy I can't breath!

Ahhhh 4 year olds...what to do with them! I was down stairs grabbing Liam from his nap and putting a load of laundry in to contribute to my mountain of laundry that needs to be folded in the spare room. I am starting to think that when I go down stairs Mike needs to come with me. If i am gone for more then 5 min he is into something he should not be....Weeeellll he found the Scotch tape and decided to wrap it around his waste about 15 times. He did this really tight. Well needless to say he was saying my tummy hurts mom...I can not breath. Well I found the end and told him to spin...well he spun about 15 times and feel to the floor laughing. I could not stop laughing as i was doing this. Such a funny kid...but man he can be a pain sometimes...Nothing like a 4 year old that ....Nothing like a 4 year...haha!

And he's Off!

Well Steve found out here a few months ago that they got a bunch of work up in Dawson City for pretty much the rest of the year. He will be gone anywhere from a week to two weeks at a time and back working here in town for a week....not that bad I know. But still feel sad about it. I am glad that there is lots of work as we are needing to save money for school next year and also the trips that we are planning on doing as well. So today is Steve's first day off to Dawson and my first day of being a part time single parent. What is in store for me...who knows??? I am sure I will do just fine..but will miss my hubby being around all time time to hold the legs of my 10 month old when I need to change him or to make a bottle for him...or to take Mike to the park when i need a break...I will miss the extra pair of hands and his companionship when he is gone...but Im strong and know that I will be able to do this as it is for the good of the Family and also so we are able to do the things that we have been wanting to do for years...but like most familys, just have not had the cash to do so. So I wish my husband all the best of luck with his time in Dawson as they are multi Million Dollar jobs that he is in charge of. So pretty much don't frick up...haha! I know he will do great as he is so good at his job. Love you my dear and look forward to seeing you soon...I am sure I will survive my part time single parent life.....I HOPE!

All I want is Scooby Doo!!!

Well last night was the last night that Steve is going to be here in town. So we had a bunch of tickets left over for the Carnival, so decided to go back and let Mike do some more rides. He really wanted to play the Scooby Doo game. You throw these balls down this table and they land in a hole...one is slow, fast, and faster. Well Steve decided to play seeing how he was the only adult at the game and figured he could beat all these kids. Well he was right. Steve was pretty excited to win Mike something, so we told him "what toy do you want?" He was like, ''I want Scooby Doo''. Well Scooby Doo was apart of the game...sorta like a horse race game. Needless to say Mike was NOT HAPPY THAT HE COULD NOT HAVE SCOOBY DOO. ......soooo he settled with a blue dragon...he was not happy at first with it when we got home, but ended up sleeping with it last night.

Our time at the Carnival!

Happy 60th Anniversary Whitehorse. Whitehorse this past weekend celebrated it 60th year of being the Capital City of the Yukon. There were many activities that took place up at the Canada Games Center and also including a Carnival. This is the first Carnival to come to Whitehorse in 20 years...crazy...but true. So we packed up the kids on Saturday and met some friends there and had a great time. Micheal was in awe of the rides and games. Liam could care less as he just slept the whole time. That kid could have freight train go by and not wake up. But Mike went on a few rides, but really enjoyed the plane with play gun on the front. Steve and his boss went on this crazy ride that was totally not for me. It was so scary looking, and new what I had just ate for lunch would wined up on the ground below. But Steve convinced me to go on this other ride. Did not look that bad, and he said "come on it is fun..just remember that." Well my goodness I just about passed out from screaming so freakin loud. haha, our friends below were just laughing as i pased by going about 100 km an hour...But all in all it was a great time and hope to see another Carnival come to Whitehorse soon. It was a lot of fun to go to.

The Evil Fridge

My 4 year old thinks that making his own meals it great. Turn the stove on...turn the microwave on..all that sorta stuff. If only I could put a force shield around my kitchen to block him from going in their every 10 seconds to find what he could make for me...Nana, grandma really who ever. I am so tired of this...does anyone have any suggestions for a very independent 4 year old???

My First Blog!

I totally enjoy reading the blogs of my friends and family and thought that having my own blog would be fun to have. I enjoy reading about their lives and experiences they have where they live, and thought it would be neat to have my own for people to read and experience our lives living in the Yukon. Hope you enjoy and hope I can figure this whole blogging thing out!!! Wish me luck haha
