Alaska!


In August we were more the blessed to find out that we were going to be going to Alaska for Ethan's "Make a Wish"wish.

The trip was amazing that it is hard to put in words how much fun we all had as a family. The highlight of course was seeing Ethan enjoy seeing whales, puffins, and much more. Ethan loved the puffin birds enough that he decided he wanted to go to the sea life center and check them out up close, so we did, when we got to looking into the place they had a puffin encounter that taught you about puffins and then allowed you to hand feed them this was incredible to see Ethan get excited about this and want to do it!

Of course, as an emotional Mamma I was misty eyed many times as I watched him enjoy this trip.

The train was very relaxing and beautiful the Alaska Make a Wish bumped Ethan and crew to gold star statues and gave us a wonderful time!




The cruise was equally relaxing and was enjoyed by all we loved being cold and watching for many things we have never seen before. We experienced many firsts on this trip these memories we will treasure for our life time.




The dog sledding tour was delightful and interesting to watch. The kids loved holding the little pups!



The kayaking was also very fun!!! James our guide was great, and gave us a memorable tour of Bear lake, so beautiful!!! I have to also chime in about the weather it was sunny every day we were there and just chilly enough for a sweatshirt. We loved the weather!

In our extra time we went to the Sea Life Center and also enjoyed a show in Anchorage, a well as Anchorage Museum. We were so very busy, but so happy to be together. We laughed a lot on this trip and after a year of suffering it was a healing suave for our Ethan.


Words will never be enough for how grateful we are to Make a Wish for making this such a wonderful wish for Ethan and Family.
