January 2017

So, um, I was trying to decide if I was going to continue blogging, and I thought, maybe if I just commit to one post a month, then if I want to look back on what I did when, it'll all be right here.  Not sure if anyone follows or checks in, so I'm just worried about doing this for me at this point.  Most pics go on Instagram at this time anyway.  Feel free to follow me there if you want to see more pictures of Alaska, quilting, gardening, and general everyday life...

Kiaj sent this new Packer sweatshirt for Christmas - I love it!  I'm sure this sweatshirt is why the Pack went as far as they did in the playoffs...

The biggest excitement of the month was the Copper Basin 300.  This year the start was at the traditional location - downtown Glennallen - which means the teams raced right in front of the phone company.  I'm definitely going to enter a picture into the contest for the front page of the phone book!

I love when the doggies all have matching booties!

Jeff's favorite mushers are the twins from Seeing Double Dogsled Racing...
One one of the twins raced this year.
