Taken earlier this month. Hope you all have a wonderful weekend!
Big Girl
She wanted to make her own pancakes this morning. Everyday she is practicing her independence and spreading her wings.
...Don't be in such a hurry to grow up my sweetie!
Mini Golf
Gwyneth went mini golfing for the first time today! She participated in the library's summer reading program, and some of the rewards included a 2 for the price of one mini golf ticket, a free ride on the Pioneer Park railroad, and a voucher for $1.00 off at the local ice cream shop. Today she redeemed every last one of them, and had a blast! She did quite well at golf too!
This circle is a part of the Trans-Alaska Pipeline System. Some facts on it can be found HERE.
I'm B-a-a-ck!
I always think the "grass is greener", and inevitably end up back here on blogger.
Shouldn't mess with a good thing.
I'll be staying with blogger! ha! Sorry for any confusion! :o)

Rubber Duckie Race-Golden Days
This past week Fairbanks celebrated Golden Days.Golden Days began as a way of collectively honoring Fairbanks’ past. It is when they celebrate the discovery of gold by Felix Pedro in 1902. We did not go to any events except the rubber duckie race. The Chamber of Commerce sells tickets for this "game" and nearly 6000 rubber duckies are dumped into the Chena River. The owner of the housing area we live in bought tickets for each tenant here. We did not win, or even make it into the top 30. (Not surprising.)
We went for the novelty. Where else would you be able to see 6000 yellow rubber duckies floating down river?!
Lately this is the only way I am able to photograph Gwyneth. Such a booger!
Waiting to see those first rubber duckies!
make a wish
