Celebrating Grandkids' July Birthdays

In the middle of what has been a cooler than normal summer, we at least were able to spend the day mostly outside.

We took a break from building forts in the woods to have cake and presents - Nice to have the Dads managing the festivities!

Keeping Teddy warm with a sweater that's just his size.

Family Gathering in Alaska

This big guy was grazing right next to the road as we approached my sister and brother-in-law's off the grid homes.

We all took turns holding the baby,

Riding horses,

taking trail rides through the amazing cottonwood forest,

swinging in the couples swing,

and playing with Whisky the miniature donkey.

We had a feast fit for a king, with BBQ'd steak and salmon, followed by birthday cake to celebrate Dick's 88th birthday.

A wonderful family day in sunshine in Alaska in July.
