Alaska~Part 1

Todd’s mom with all 3 grandkids together for the first time. 
Eight of nine of us walking the park. 
Big wooden troll. 
Seattle skyline before we sail away. 



Watercolor class. One of several. This one was jellyfish. 



On our balcony we had them open up so all 3 cabins could share the space. Todd’s sister’s family was on another deck. 
Towel animal that the cabin steward set up with Todd’s sunglasses. 


More watercoloring. 

Float planes



Eagles. 




 Pictures get mixed up and out of order as usual. Some might be dupes. We were all sharing pics in texts so in an effort to make sure I got them all downloaded, there may be dupes to come in more posts. Sorry! 

Misc & Alaska pro pics


 







Here’s some professional pics from the cruise photographer. I’ll have lots more pics from Alaska to come. Just starting small. 
Joshua went to a pre-season game and tried this cookie dough in a waffle cone. I feel like he’s rubbing it all in my face. 

Hannah and I saw Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat last month. It was one of my favorites that she’s performed in the past. The cast was great.  I love the songs. 
Next up….lots of Alaska and cruise pics.

San Diego 7-4-26

We went to San Diego/Coronado Island for our 29th anniversary. We’ve never gone there in the summer before so it was a bit busier but not too bad on base. We also went to Carrillo National Monument as they had free entry on the 4th and it wasn’t far from our hotel. We couldn’t get into the Navy Lodge so we stayed on Point Loma.
