These are some of the promised pictures from our weekend at Eklutna.

The kids had so much fun hiking down by the lake. Morgan's favorite thing (obviously)

was picking all the dandelions. Here's how I did Morgan's hair for the weekend. Gabe found

a pretty little flower to put in her hair.
It was just the kids and I for the day till Matt got done working.
I really enjoy these times with the kids.

Me, right before the Eklutna Challenge.

Gabe was my training partner the night before. I think we circled through the camp grounds 5-6 times. He's only been riding a two wheeler since his birthday. (Grandma and

Grandpa got him a bike for his birthday!) And right now, he only has two speeds.

Really fast, and crashing. But he is good about getting back on the bike, and

trying again. We pretty much have to drag him in off his bike every night.

Morgan, our junior-extreme biker. The kid has a real knack for

cycling. She's always trying to ride mommy's bike.

Our family.

Panoramic view of one of my favorite places in Alaska.

Eklutna Lake is so peaceful, and gorgeous.

I love coming here with my family.

My wonderful kids, on the bridge during our hike.

Chandler and Gabe have the posing down. We still

have to work on our delicate little flower. See the muffin

being shoved into her mouth while the other two are smiling?
