Alaska...and then some


So this is our panaramic view. I wish I would have figured this out a little earlier and tried it a few more times! This was in Denali Park. Josh and I absolutely loved Denali. There was such diverse scenery! It was gorgeous!!





This was our 1st view of Alaska from the plane! Little did I know, there were much more astonishing sites to come! Alaska definitely exceeded our expectations. The pictures I have are gorgeous, but do not do Alaska justice!


This was our 1st Alaskan Sunset...this was at 10:30pm mind you!

The next day we hopped a ride on the Alaska Rail Road to go from Anchorage to Seward. I have never been on a real train before and I absolutely loved it! We were only in our seats for about 20 minutes and then they called us to the dining car for breakfast. It was a little crowded so they asked if we minded sharing with another couple. We met a couple who lives in Las Vegas and the husband travels to Alaska for work a few times a year. The wife then does what she can to tag along! They told us some places to visit and how gorgeous it was in the winter as well. We had such a good time talking with them that we stayed at the same booth in the dining car the whole trip. Even the servers in the dining car sat and talked with us! Best train ride EVER!



This is the 1st glacier we saw. It looks like a question mark. I clearly did not pay enough attention in class when they told us what glaciers were. I definitely thought a glacier was an iceburg! As you can see, it's not!

Alright, that's enough Alaska for now. I will tell more about it and add more pictures later!

Josh and I are almost to our 1 year anniversary! Time sure has gone by quickly! I think within the past week I've paid attention to the fact that we have definitely grown alot! I have mellowed out a little more, which is a good thing for Josh :) And he's learned to do some of the things that I've..."politely" requested of him :) All I know is that it's been a wonderful time learning more about one another and falling more in love with each other! I definitely love him more than I did a year ago! I can't imagine what it will be like in 5 - 10 years. It will be even better! I was definitely one lucky lady to have such a good friend introduce me to such a wonderful man! Thanks Court!

Speaking of Courtney...she's getting married next weekend! YAY!!! I am so excited for her and can't wait to celebrate and be a part of this wonderful day! Love you lady!

Way too long!!

Ok, so I have been HORRIBLE at blogging! I think it stems from the fact that I can't do it at work anymore :) I shouldn't have been doing it there anyway, but I don't want to sit at the computer to write something at night when I've been at the computer ALL day! But I will definitely try to do better!

There's not been a whole lot going in our life except the normal travel here and there to see family and then our WONDERFUL "Honeymoon" to Alaska! I'll try to go into more detail later about Alaska, and include some pictures. But it was absolutely gorgeous and I would definitely recommend it to anyone! WE had so much fun!

Ok, so I will try to do better at this and will post pictures soon!
