Memorial Day Weekend 2007

-
What a busy weekend we had! Daddy had to work, but Jacy and I were headed out of town again! On Friday night we headed for St. John's to watch my youngest sister, Janell, graduate from high school! She did a great job putting together the class video presentation that was shown during the ceremony! The next day we headed to Show Low for a fun filled afternoon of bubbles in the front yard with Grandpa Zeke, or "Papa Eke" as Jacy refers to him. Saturday was also my brother Jonathan's birthday, so we surprised him for dinner at Grumpy Jake's in Pinetop. It was fun to celebrate his birthday with family and friends. Jacy and I stayed the night with Grandma Greta and Pardner at their Shores cabin in Pinteop. It was great to be able to spend time with them. Jacy made her Great Grandma play on the stairs with her most of the time! On Sunday we headed back home to see Daddy, but our night did not go as well as we had hoped. By 5:00pm Jacy had a fever that spiked to 103.5 and climbing, so we took her to the emergency room. She is such a trooper! She didn't even really cry while they put in her IV! We had a 3 hours stay while she was given liquids and antibiotics. The Dr. said that it was a virus that needed to run it's course. That was pretty much the end of our weekend. On Monday we were all pretty wiped out, so we stayed in and had a "Northern Exposure" show marathon on TV. It was nice to be home and spending time as a family!
5/31/07-We just got back from the pediatrician. The lab results from the trip to the Emergency Room indicated that Jacy has a Urinatry Tract Infection (UTI). We have new medication for her and hope that she is feeling better very soon!

Native Drums

For the past 6 weeks Jayne's class (all the 4th and 5th graders) at school have been working with a resident artist learning about the  Tlingit (KLING kit), the Haida (HIGH duh) and the Tsimshian (SIM she ann) native tribes of Southeast Alaska. They have learned how to introduce themselves in the native tongue. They have learned about the art and form styles used in totems and the meanings behind the symbols. They even had the opportunity to make a deer skin drum (Goo-jow), including soaking the deer skin and stretching it over the wood drum frame and letting it set until it hardened. Once it was completely dry they got to draw their chosen native symbol on the drum and the paint it. They look SO COOL! They even made their own drum stick using a stick, fabric, buck leather, and deer tendon, which was used as the string to tie it all together. This past week the students performed for the rest of the school, singing a song/chant in the native tongue. It is a welcome message...

Whale Watching

This weekend was BEAUTIFUL weather!!!  We have all been feeling a little under the weather, but we have made sure to get outside a little each day.  On Saturday we were fortunate enough to be downtown by the cruise ships docks and caught a few glimpses of a humpback whale!  When they bubble feed you can see a ring of bubble start to surface on the water and then they come straight up the center with open mouths to feed.  It is so cool to see them!  They are really big!  Sunday afternoon was a nice drive to all the great spots that we love to view the ocean from.  It was a gorgeous sunset!  Someday I still can't believe that we live here!!!
