Alaska: Aug. 29-Sept. 6

I decided to take a little trip to Alaska by myself right after moving to Utah before I got settled in a new job. I stayed with different people, but mostly my mom's best friend, Jen Wood. My aunt and uncle let me borrow their car which was a huge help. I was able to drive around and see everything and everyone. It was a fabulous week!

Wasilla Lake with Linnea

I love fireweed.

Linnea Holbrook. I have missed this girl! I am so glad that I got to see her before she left to college. She left half way through my visit.

Home <3

Pioneer Peak. I went there for FHE with the Single's Ward.

Finger Lake, my favorite lake in Alaska. I have spent a lot of time at this place.

Alaska State Fair!!
I went to Alaska in August mainly for the fair. I have missed it soo much the last 2 years. I went for 2 days and hung out with some people and walked around eating and shopping. It was absolutely fabulous!

Glacier Pizza...breakfast.

The absolute BEST corn the cob on the planet!

Chocolate covered bacon on a stick. $3 and a total waste. It didn't mix well for me. I love them both separately!

Melanie and Kena...our very dear friends!

Dippin' Dots

Lumberjack Show
One of the best things about the fair!

Katie getting hena

Linnea working at the Carhart booth that her dad runs at the fair. She left that night for BYU-I.

Bishop Holbrook at this Carhart booth. What a great man!

Rosemary Henderson and I. We never hung out growing up, but we have discovered on Facebook that we have so much in common. So we have become friends and we hung out for the first time. I wish I lived by her. She's a sweetheart.

My waxed hand at the fair. I always get one and I brought my own paintbrush to use for it. They thought it was a really good idea and I had fun splashing the colors on it.

Me and Sydney Boston :)

I was walking through the arts and crafts section at the fair and saw this. I thought, "How cool! It's the temple!" Then I saw the sign that says it was built for the wedding of Dabric Huntington and Adam Baxter, so I thought, "Oh my heck! That's my family!" Haha, Dabric is my cousin :)

Hatcher Pass
I went up with my friend Tyler Bounds. I love it up there!

Tyler had the great idea of making paper boats and see how far they will float down the river. They didn't go far but it was fun.

I had dinner with Amy. I wish we could have had more time together but it was so fun seeing her again.

I spent my last night with Sabrina Holbrook, went to church with her, and then she drove me to the airport. I love that girl!
