The PA Pearsall Clan Visits AK

 The day after they got here we took Trevor and Myles to hike Crow Pass. They loved it! (Aaron's mom, Steph, Myles and Trevor, his little brothers and me.)

 Kinley and I took Grandma and Grandpa to Alyeska to ride the tram and have lunch.

The next day we all packed up to camp along the Denali Highway. The views were amazing! Riding the dirt road made it feel like we were back home.  The guys caught grayling. I wish I had pictures, there is only video. The following pics are from the camping trip.



 


The guys also took a day trip to the Russian river to caught sockeye salmon (aka reds). They were quite successful. And also got to see some grizzly bears during there trip. I wish I could have been there. Not for the fishing but to see the bears.

 Close enough, right!?!

Another day, we headed to Wasilla to the Iditarod Headquarters. We had a lot of fun playing with the puppies. They were only 3 weeks old! So cute!


 
 She wasn't sure at first but then she wouldn't let go!

Kinley and Grandpa had fun reading books. Well, Grandpa reading. Kinley listening and eating. 

 Trevor, Myles and Steph went to visit a college roommate of Trevor's who is working at the animal conservation in Girdwood. They had a great behind the scenes tour. How cool that Myles got to feed a baby moose!

Trevor got a job out of the trip! He is working down at the conservation in Gridwood for awhile. If while your there, you get a snack, he probably made your food!

It was a fun filled week! It was great to have family visiting. And it was even better that Kinley got to meet them all. She was all smiles most of the time! I think she misses having people around. Aaron and I must not be all that fun. :)
