Holts and Kellers in Alaska

Ok so the Holts came down to the Peninsula to visit the Kellers.  This time with 12 kids all together.  Woah!!  We just keep growing every year!  Hopefully not next year though- I'm not ready for that and I know Tiffany is done!  :)  So lots of fun stuff.  We went to the beach again and had a fire roasting hotdogs and marshmallows without sticks... not the smartest thing to do.  Tiff and I did zumba and went running and Jacob and Tustin did sit ups and other manly things. 
We also got the opportunity to go halibut fishing and it was an AMAZING day!  Not one person got sick and the halibut kept coming till we caught our limit of 26. Epic!
We got to experience what it would be like to have twins, and know I am perfectly fine never having twins.  :)
Tiff semi reupholstered my couch, now I just need to do the cushions. 
Jacob and Tiff also bought a new 15 passenger van which we filled to capacity just a few days they bought it.  :)  Awesomeness!  Now Travis is seriously looking into buying one since my voyager just randomly shut off the other day while driving to church.  Not so cool.
Enjoy the pics!

Fishing with dōTERRA VP Emily Wright

I know you all know how much I love dōTERRA and am working toward telling the world about it.  So you'll understand what an amazing opportunity it was for me to go fishing with dōTERRA's VP, and only woman executive, Emily Wright.  She came up to Alaska to do an event and had the opportunity to fish with Travis while here.
I didn't get sick at all!  I can't say it was because of the oils, however, I used a patch! Lol.  I was the care taker of the sick and had a ball!  It made such a difference being awake and well while on the boat.  Such a great time hearing from Emily.  I had to post.  :)


Tell is 2 months!

Well, here's a pic of each child, taken just today!

Trayton is at the computer for his 20 min after doing his reading lessons, which are going very well!  :)  He and Tustin just finished up their soccer season and got their medals. 

Tustin and Tracker are eating homemade granola for breakfast and giving some cheesy grins!

Naomi is her sweet happy self, being such a cutie.  She just got her diaper changed right there.  She did sit on the potty and got the other half of the job done.  The first half was on the kitchen floor...

And little Tell is 2 months old!  He's already in size 3-6m clothes.   I just switched em out yesterday.  So crazy!  So I had to let y'all know and post pictures. He had his debut with a big halibut, although Travis did not catch those fish behind us!  We took the opportunity while we could.  Family Christmas picture??

Love ya!

The Green House

Ok so this is really all Travis' fault. The first step is the hardest one to take, after all. But now I will take all credit for keeping these plants alive!  All of it, because its rather time consuming!

I'm posting these pictures right on my phone, so I'm not sure how to space the pictures...

You'll just have to figure out what the plants are on your own. Good luck.

But for starters we have fruits coming off the peppers, cucumbers, several different squashes, scarlet runner beans, and tomatoes. We also have growing cilantro, celery, bok choy (chinese cabbage), kale, swiss schard, sage, shallots, basil, carrots, beets, letus, chives, rhubarb, cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower, and radishes.  We have another green house too, but those plants aren't growing. 







Catching up in Alaska

So lots of stuff has been happening!  Well, more like its been forever since I posted.
A few things like Tell getting rsv, and Naomi getting her lip busted.  Our green house in flourishing, pictures to come soon.  Tell is growing like a weed!  And Uncle Adam is up for the summer!  Love you all.  More pictures coming soon!

Happy 4th

Mary Rose was blessed the last Sunday before Mom and Dad left.  I'm so happy they got to spend three weeks with us.  We didn't get to do a whole lot while they were here because I'm not recovering very fast after this baby, but we really enjoyed just visiting with them.


 And here she is for the 4th of July. I'm so thankful for our independence, and I'm so grateful for those who had the courage to make our country what it is today.  It is such a blessing. Hope you all have a wonderful day.  Enjoy the fireworks for us!
