The BIG 6-0 AND 26 years together!

-
May 29th was a special day for Grandpa John and Grandma Linda. Grandpa celebrated the BIG 6-0 and together it was their 26th wedding anniversary. The following weekend we threw a party for them at SanTan flats in Queen Creek. We celebrated with a cake for my dad that read "Older Than Dirt" and presented him with age appropriate gifts, such as a magnifying glass and a cane! We also had a special cake for the two of them to share for their Anniversary. It was a great night spent with family and friends. All my brother's and their families, some extended family and some friends were there to celebrate with us. Jennifer and Janell were busy in Europe, so they didn't get in on all the fun.

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...

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!!!
