Alaska, Here We Come!

Adam and I took an amazing 13 day trip to Alaska!!! It was truly the most beautiful place that I have seen! And yes, Alaska is BIG! Everything in Alaska is big! We felt so small!  We had such a fabulous time and met so many wonderful people. The best part of the whole trip was spending such great, quality time with Adam! While we were away Cade and Cali kept very busy! They went with Pop & Boca for a week trip to Branson, Cali spent a week with Grandpa & Grandma, Cade went to church camp in Illinois for the 2nd week. Before we all knew it, we were back home and getting ready for school to start! Thanks to both sets of grandparents! Adam and I were able to enjoy our entire trip knowing they were wonderfully cared for!
