No I'm not going to bust out in song.. although I do love Jason Aldean and his song "Days like these" I'm referring to our day today!
Well I suppose all around its just been a really awesome weekend! Last night Jason and I had dinner and headed over to play basketball for awhile! Jason wanted to play this game "around the world" for all I know he made it up because Ive never heard of it but turns out I wasn't too bad at it.. because I won! haha Any of you that know Jason well know how he felt about that! He said I cheated, tried to change the game, wanted to play again.. and than plain and simple wouldn't let me play anymore.. HA HA so we came home! It was a lot of fun though, another form of exercise and we always love that! So we came home and I talked Jason into watching a chick flick with me! Let me tell you these nights are few and far between, we never ever watch movies anymore because we are never home but when we do Jason usually picks.. until last time. Last time we watched a movie we went to see that new Adam Sandler movie.. STUPID! It was a waste of my life.. time I will never get back, so after that I said I was picking! I'm not going to lie I feel bad because I knew Jason really wouldn't love the movie but I was dying to see it and Barb and Mom watched it so I really had to see it! We watched Tyler Perry's Good Deeds.. SO GOOD! At the end I just laid on the couch sobbing.. I love a good movie like that!
This morning Jason slept in, I think its his allergies because he is severely stuffed up! I woke up at 8:30am and he was snoring! Jason NEVER snores unless he is sick or exhausted.. I think it might have been a combination of both! So I snuck out of bed and quietly watched TV and had a coffee in the living room so he could sleep! Jason got up at 9:30am and we really didn't rush to get out the door like we usually do. We took our time getting ready, had breakfast and headed out! We stopped and got a Starbucks and got on the road to Hatchers Pass which is just outside of Palmer!
We made a few stops along the way around the Little Susitna River; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Little_Susitna_River
we took a bunch of pictures and really just enjoyed the ride up there! There was so many beautiful places to stop, we even ran into a couple with their young daughter who were panning for gold!
We literally JUST pulled into the Independence Mine visitor parking area and Jason, Mel and Myles pulled in right behind us! GREAT TIMING! We had planned to just see where we were and if we happened to be around the same place try and get together but we realized as we drover further from Anchorage that none of us had phone reception.. fate!
Check out some information on the Independence Mine...
http://dnr.alaska.gov/parks/units/indmine.htm
http://www.alaskatravel.com/parks/independence-mine.html
We really had a great time there and we got there at such a good time on account that the fog was JUST starting to set in and by the time we were leaving you really couldn't see anything. Actually it was kind of funny because I really hate the fog, every time we are in Maine I complain about it because it creepy.. it makes me nervous.. straight out of a horror movie! Well Mel said the same thing when we were there today, and it made it worse that it was a creepy old decrepit falling down Mine and it was surrounded by thick fog.. creepy! Jason was telling me on the way home that he was reading the signs in some of the buildings that said about ghosts.. EEK!
After leaving the Mine we stopped at Thunder Bird Falls on the way home and hiked to the gorge and than the falls.. honestly I wasn't overly impressed. The hike was fine, short really but I didn't feel the need to make it longer on account that there really wasn't much to see!
Leaving there we decided to stop at the Peanut Farm and have dinner on the patio! I had really wanted to go to the Glacier Brew House but it seemed like a waste to sit inside when we have this BEAUTIFUL weather! Unfortunately I didn't take my purse because we had been out hiking all day and they wouldn't serve Jason a beer because I didn't have my ID.. that started things.. haha than there were bee's EVERYWHERE.. if I haven't mentioned it before the yellow jackets are in abundance here! I don't know what the deal is but honestly no matter where you go you see a bunch and on a patio with beer and food, they were swarming! They screwed up Jason's wings to finish things.. but honestly I'm not complaining about any of it because it really was just such a great day!
We left there, hit the car wash and walmart on the way home! Jason started pork in the crock pot to make pulled pork for dinner tomorrow and I made lunches for tomorrow and got all the fruit washed up and ready for the week! I already sent out the pictures from today so I hope you all enjoy!
Its days like these that make me feel lucky to be here and see all these beautiful amazing things! Its days like these, however few and far between that prevent me from packing all my shit and heading as far south as I can go! Its days like these that make me so happy, so lucky for all that I have! Jason and I had such a great day today, saw and did so much! I always say that we need to make more of an effort to get out of town every chance we get and make the most of all that we are surrounded by! Its kind of easier said than done with both of our schedules but days like this make me want to find the time somehow!
Tomorrow back to work and then Tuesday is suppose to be beautiful as well so Mel and I are thinking a hike in the morning with Mr. Myles and than a picnic lunch at the park and play time for the little guy.. sounds like a good plan to me! I need to hit Best Buy in search of case for my Ipod with a strap so I can wear it around my around at the gym and when I run. I'm going to REALLY try and push myself to get up and go for even a half hour run in the morning before going to work.. I said I was going to try, don't hold me to it just yet! Haha maybe if I win the long sleeve lulu running shirt on Ebay I'm bidding on!
Anyways I hope everyone had a great weekend like I did! Enjoy the pictures!!
PS - Mom we went into Starbucks this morning and here is a woman sitting there with a Brady Jersey and a Patriots hat! I told Jason I wanted to take a picture and send it to you and he said "Football season has begun, no more joking, no more fun!" HAHA - Then I came home to find out that Chad Ochocinco beat his wife last night and Miami cut him today! HAHA Jason was worried he would be an issue playing in the same division as the Patriots.. I however was not worried on account that I think he sucks, apparently at life as well as football!

Always an exciting night at the lake..
Hello all,
I really have nothing to report, but Jason and I went for a walk last night and who was out.. THE BEAVERS! I swear every time we go to the lake we see a beaver which is great, but last night there were TWO! I wish I took my camera, but I had my phone so these were the best pictures I could get and I thought I would share!
Usually the beaver flies out of the water not caring one bit who is standing there.. not scared of people one bit! But apparently it is scared of dogs.. haha the poor beaver tread water about 10 feet from shore terrified and than said screw it and took off!
Anyways here are a few pictures! Hope everyone has a great weekend!

Sun to Rain.. just like that!
Greetings from dreary miserable Alaska!
Clearly I was in a better mood yesterday than I am today.. so I think I will start off with the good side of things!
Yesterday Mel, Myles and I headed to Target early in the morning, than to the post office and then Downtown! Myles had a cat nap on the way downtown which was great because when we got there it was lunch time! We decided to go to the Glacier Brewhouse, Jason and I have tried to go before but its always an ridiculous wait so we've never actually made it in! But lunch time isn't nearly as busy as dinner so we got seated right away. Mel had a citrus wasbi salad with fresh pacific salmon and I have a garden salad with fresh pan seared halibut.. amazing! Honestly their menu has a million things to choose from but I couldn't have been happier with what I got! The fresh fish here is amazing, and I don't even like fish! Stuff from the Pacific Ocean seems to taste a lot better than stuff from the Atlantic Ocean.. even Jason agreed, as weird as that may sound!
After lunch we headed over to the mall, Mel was on the hunt for a pair of Toms! Those shoes are friggin' cute, they even have them in Myles size! Unfortunately for me it wont get warm enough to wear them, and I work all the time.. plus we have no room to take them.. besides I think I might hold out for the boots because they are what I really want! We also found some excellent deals through out the mall which is always a good thing! On the last floor of the mall Myles had pretty much had it with shopping, cant say I blame him.. its not nearly as fun for him and we weren't exactly at babies R us.
We left the mall and headed home, not before seeing a cruise shipped docked in town.. that's a first. Not sure what cruise line it was but it was a really huge boat! Anyways we got home and decided to go for a walk, it was a beautiful day and Myles didn't nap on the way home so Mel kind of figured he would nap while we walked! Well we walked for a long time and he didn't nap, haha poor guy was sooo tired! By the time we got back to the apartment his eyes were sooo red and he was exhausted.. no napping though!
I hung around at Mel's for awhile and then headed home to get the truck to go and pick up Jason!
Through the day Jason had suggested we go out or pick up sandwiches and have a picnic dinner at Beluga point and then maybe tour around Girdwood or Bird Creek! So that's just what we did, I picked Jason up and he went and picked up the company truck from Kris, came home and changed and we headed out the door. We stopped and got a sandwich and than headed down to one of the lookouts along Turnagain Arm.. I cant remember which one we stopped at! We had dinner and than toured around and took pictures. We decided to go to Bird Creek because the Salmon are in so Jason could do a little fishing. Honestly I'm so nervous going there because there was a bear attack there at the beginning of the summer and it freaks me out!
On the way home we saw 3 Dall sheep in the mountains.. that was the first time Jason has ever seen them and the first time I was able to get some pictures! I sent out all the pictures last night, I hope everyone enjoyed them!
I had a super great day off yesterday although unfortunately I didn't get much sleep last night and woke up feeling pretty crumby.. haha compared to yesterday when I woke up from dreaming that I was suppose to be delivering papers for Bubba for his paper route and I couldn't seem to get them done and I was so scared because I kept seeing bears! I told Jason that and he said that he had been dreaming that he was being chased by fox.. and they could talk! haha!! See what Alaska does to you!!
Anyways I came in to work and there was a million things for me to do, as usual! Sometimes I wonder if its worth having a day off seeings how I have to do double the work the day after! But I'm going to take advantage while I can because I wont have many days off at all in September!
Hopefully in the next two weeks Mel and I are going to head to Whittier and go on the 26 Glacier tour!!! Its like the Major Marine Tour we did when everyone was here but different, I'm super excited for that!
Well I hope everyone is having a great week, its hump day!!

Another Weekend come and gone..
Well hello all,
Unfortunately another weekend has come and gone.. for those of us in the US at least because I believe at home you are all taking advantage of another long weekend!!
Nothing much has been going on here.. its been shitty weather.. GO FIGURE! Honestly I swear if we get one nice day its followed by 4 shitty days! I don't know what the hell, this morning I woke up and the apartment was FREEZING! More than usual!
Anyways I had a really bad week at work, everyday I was getting screamed at by residents strictly for being the messenger. I don't get to make major decisions and trust me if I did I would do things so different, 99% of the time I agree with the residents on their dispute! Its just been everything this week. We have a resident who in May had her kitchen flood, a drain line above her kitchen split and Deanna wouldn't take her seriously when she was repeatedly calling and saying that it was raining in her kitchen. In the end they had to cut a huge hole in her ceiling and take her appliances out and her kitchen was basically out of commission for a week. There was no compensation, nor did they bother to rush and fix it.. when they were finally did Tom had to go in and help Clayton and was EXTREMELY rude to her and she was sooo upset, understandably. Well this week a drain line split above her master bathroom and master closet.. soaked everything.. had to have her carpets cleaned.. HUGE pain in the ass.. she wants compensation on her rent. Last time she had to eat for a week and this time she is having to dry clean a bunch of stuff and rewash everything in her closet, I don't blame her! WELL they said that they would give her $25.00 on her rent and they thought that was MORE THAN FAIR! Its honestly insulting to this woman in my opinion.. they don't care!
I had another TERRIBLE move in, Deanna rented to them and the people who lived there before were evicted and there were stains on the carpet! OF COURSE they wouldn't replace them and OF COURSE I have to do the move in and get to listen to people be upset, angry and disappointed.. its awful and I'm sick of it!
I also found out on Friday that apparently they are planning to go away in January or February down to the lower 48 to tour around in their motor home! I AM NOT GOING TO WORK AND BE ON CALL FOR ANOTHER MONTH!! I agreed to do it in September strictly on account that there was no other way they would give me time with everyone was here.. but this is taking advantage.. in the biggest way ever! NOT HAPPENING!
Anyways.. Friday night Jason and I went down to Ship Creek because the Silver Salmon were suppose to be running! Well they really weren't, not like I had expected at least! We saw a few people catch some but it wasn't like I thought! Here is a kind of crappy picture of one but its better than nothing.
We left there and hit Walmart before coming home! Yesterday Jason and I both worked all day, and it was raining and crappy! For some reason my knees were aching sooooooooooooo bad! My left knee hurt the worst its hurt in years! I came home and made dinner and than sat on the couch for the rest of the night with a heating pad.. I assume its the miserable cold and rainy weather but it was awful!!
Today Jason had to go into work this morning for a couple of hours so I got up and talked to Barb for a couple of hours! I got ready and cleaned up the apartment and when Jason got home we headed out to do a few errands. After that we decided it wasn't TERRIBLE out so we would head up to Arctic Valley and see if there were any bears hanging around, Mel and Jason saw 2 last weekend up there!! We didn't see any bears but we did see a great view! Check it out!

We didn't see any bears but we did see a great view! Check it out!
When we got home we decided to have a visit with the Goodwin's! Its so VERY RARE that both Jason's have the same day off, if there is any time off at all, so we like to make the most of it and Jason never gets to see Myles! Not to mention I haven't seen Myles in a week and I really miss him... at this age in a week he changes so much! Today he learned to drink from a straw, had ice cream for the first time.. haha see you miss a day and you miss so much! He has really only seen Jason a couple of times, but they seem to get along.. haha what do you think??
You know how kids love Jason! Myles seemed pretty impressed with Jason too.. or he figured no one was hovering or trying to take him away so it was all good.
Anyways Jason is just making dinner and we have a pretty quiet night planned, nothing exciting! I'm reading a really good book right now and Jason is tired from getting up early so we'll probably go to bed early.
Back to work tomorrow unfortunately! I honestly might lose my shit tomorrow and get fired.. last week was so bad and I'm sick of doing everything by myself! I'll try to be on my best behavior though and keep in mind I have Tuesday off and its suppose to be nice out!
I hope everyone has had a great weekend or are enjoying their long weekend!!

Saved by the Grace of Southern Charm
Good Morning all,
Thought I would send out a quick message tell you all how AWESOME the Miranda Lambert concert was last night!! As the day went on yesterday I was super excited to go! Jason ended up being later than expected so we were kind of rushed! We parked across the street, which was Jason's idea and quite wise because the line of cars to get into the arena parking was unbelievable.. C street was backed up forever!! We got in line and then someone came out and said if you had floor seats to follow her.. SCORE.. I love skipping the line!
I'm not going to lie, I'm super disappointed that Chris Young and Jerrod Niemann did NOT open for Miranda like mom said they were going! It was some local guy.. SUCKS! His name is Ken Peltier and he plays at a lot of local dive bars.. not to say he isn't good but still. I guess the just of not bringing out more big acts is that the venue here is so small and its not worth the money.. makes me sad but I get it. If you feel like it, check out.. Ken Peltier!
http://www.kenpeltier.com/
So Miranda lit up the stage, she was AWESOME!! Jason really wasn't thrilled about this concert but he was a really good sport about going and I don't think he hated it by any means! Miranda Lambert isn't Kelly Pickler... as she said "I like to hunt, fish, I eat chicken fried stead and I like a cold beer. I'm a proud size 8 and its never seem to hurt me. I don't give a crap about much bigger than a beer bottle" haha. Not only was her concert great but she is super down to earth and speaks her mind!
So overall awesome night! Unfortunately yesterday morning when I got up and it was soooooo terribly cold and miserable outside I turned on the heat in the apartment! Well I was rushing to get out the door in the morning because I decided to drive, and then when I got home from work I was rushing to get ready and make a quick dinner and Jason was late.. forgot to turn off the heat! Lets just say it was warm in the apartment last night! Not to say that I ever seem to sleep good anymore but whatever! So I got up when Jason went to work this morning and cleaned the apartment, did laundry and worked out.. haha I feel quite good!
I wish I didn't have to go to work today, I hate that I have to do absolutely EVERYTHING there! I'm going to try not to complain though because the sun is actually out today and that never happens so I figure I should look on the bright side!
I hope everyone has a GREAT weekend! I think Jason might have Sunday off and therefore if its nice we plan to go up to Hatchers Pass! We'll see how it goes!
Here are a few pictures from last nights show!!

Best Day Off!
Happy Tuesday Everyone!
What a GREAT day off! I got to sleep in this morning and lounge around in the quiet which is always great! I got some laundry done and cleaning before Jason got home just after lunch to pick me up for our dentist appointment. Now anyone who knows me knows that I am absolutely terrified of the dentist, and it doesn't help that we never stay in one place so I always have to see a different dentist, which means new xrays, new assessment.. which is the worst! The lady who did my cleaning was absolutely AWESOME though, she did an absolutely amazing job and I didn't get the urge to bite her.. not once!
After the dentist Jason and I decided that we were going to head to the Alaska Zoo! It was great, both Jason and I always compare all Zoo's to the Toronto zoo which isn't really fair because the Toronto Zoo is the second largest zoo in North America! It was good though, all of the animals have been rescued from a bad situation and are being cared for there, which is always a good thing! We always enjoy the zoo anywhere.
We did grocery shopping before heading home and Jason made halibut for dinner.. honestly nothing compares to fresh Alaskan halibut. Tonight we baked it with salt and pepper and a little bit of lemon juice and it was honestly amazing! I really am not a fish lover but Ive never tasted fish that is so good.
So that's about it Jason got a cord for his camera so I was able to upload the videos from their halibut fishing trip! I got everything ready for tomorrows dinner because we are both late every night now and I got stuff ready for Thursdays dinner because its going to have to be so super quick because we are heading to the Miranda Lambert concert!! SO EXCITED!
That's our scoop, back to work tomorrow unfortunately! Its suppose to rain for the rest of the week.. GO FIGURE! I guess one sunny day a week isn't bad!
Anyways I have to run, Jason is waiting to put a bunch of our pictures from the computer on Cd's and I'm going to go for a shower! Hope everyone had a great day!
AUNT BREN I HOPE YOU ARE READING THIS!!

Tonight we baked it with salt and pepper and a little bit of lemon juice and it was honestly amazing! I really am not a fish lover but Ive never tasted fish that is so good.
So that's about it Jason got a cord for his camera so I was able to upload the videos from their halibut fishing trip! I got everything ready for tomorrows dinner because we are both late every night now and I got stuff ready for Thursdays dinner because its going to have to be so super quick because we are heading to the Miranda Lambert concert!! SO EXCITED!
That's our scoop, back to work tomorrow unfortunately! Its suppose to rain for the rest of the week.. GO FIGURE! I guess one sunny day a week isn't bad!
Anyways I have to run, Jason is waiting to put a bunch of our pictures from the computer on Cd's and I'm going to go for a shower! Hope everyone had a great day!
