Our Alaskan Winter Wonderland

So, it’s March here in Alaska, and everywhere else for that matter.  Here, March is apparently the perfect winter month.  It’s sunny, very very sunny, and snowy.  Usually temperatures have warmed up to the 0-30 degree range, and did I mention that it’s sunny?  For those who like to be outside (cough…Keith) it’s the ideal time for snow machining, ice climbing, cross country skiing, etc.  So, without further ado, here are some happy snowy people:

Keith ice climbing with a friend up Mt. Panorama (I think). 

King of the mountain!

Keith fulfilled all of my childhood snow fantasies by building an igloo.  I don’t know how many times we tried to build one and failed back home :) The kids really love their shovels and Keith has various sizes so each of the kids carts one around outside.

I look at this picture and think “Hi Ho”

This smile of pure joy is part shovel and part Daddy just came home!
