What the Men Do

Well, this picture has no relation to this post, but it belongs in the last post:

I forgot that I had taken it, because I took it on my real camera. I have gotten so in the habit of taking photos with my phone, that I forget I have another camera. 

This is me, my cousin Rachel, and my mom. Enjoying our cheap, and good food at the BYU creamery during women's conference.

I just had to include it because I love these ladies.

Now, for the post: "What the Men Do."

My sis-in-law Britta and I usually find ourselves together doing various sewing, cooking, and craft projects while our "out-doors men husbands" go on weekend camping trips, bear hunts, morning fishing trips, and day long hikes. I'm sure you will be hearing more in depth about all of these activities as the summer progresses, but today I am going to show you the day long hike they ventured on. Bret, Devin, and Dillon hiked Matanuska Peak, while Britta and I patiently waited for them to return. It took a little longer than we were expecting because the weekend before they hiked "Lazy Mountain" and were back in about 4 hours. I guess that's why it is called "Lazy Mountain."

Here are the photos:

Here is Dillon- "King of the Rock." (this reminds me of this guy from Mulan-"King of the Rock")

The boys came back to our "Dome Home" for a bbq that Britta and I planned at the last second. They were all super sun-burned. It's hard to tell really how bad it was from this picture, but here is Devin:

You can probably tell that it was not a very pleasant sun-burn. But when are sunburns pleasant? Also, if you notice in the background corner, left hand side, there are the two love birds: Kyla and Sam. Their wedding is coming up next month! 

Also, while Alaska is filled with so much majestic beauty as you can see from all the mountainous pictures above, there is also another side to Alaska which just makes me smile. (see picture below)

Notice the school bus? Looks like a school bus just parked there right? Wrong. It is a chinese restaurant. Only in Alaska will you find a Chinese Restaurant made out of a school bus. Hopefully in the future will I be able to visit this restaurant, and do a real blog post about it. 

Stay tuned...
