We made it!!! Josh and I celebrated our 1 year anniversary on Sunday June 8. And we had a wonderful day together. We went to church, where I had the wonderful opportunity to speak! And then after church we headed out of town for the night. Since it is hard for Josh to get a day off, he was able to take "pass" and got Monday morning off so that we could spend it together. We drove just 45 minutes south of Anchorage and stopped for a beautiful hike on Bird Ridge. It was a tough little hike, pretty much all up hill!! But we did it. I slowed Josh down a little but he was patience with me and helped me all along the way. Moose even got to join in on our anniversary and did really good on the hike! She was in heaven. After the hike we drove around the small little town of Girdwood, AK and just took in the beautiful mountains and water all around us! Then we got dinner at the famous little steakhouse in Girdwood called the Double Musky Inn. It was delicious and we got to splurge for the big day! We had a wonderful day spent together and are so glad to be here together and enjoy all these great experiences.
I just posted all the pictures in random order. This is what we get to live in!! It is just beautiful here and really takes my breath away everyday. There is so much to do and all you have to do is drive right down the street or get on your bike (which i will be getting soon hopefully) and it is so much fun to be outdoors.
Views from on top of the mountain we hiked.
Our little family!
Still from on top of the mountain. We sat there for a little while and just looked around! It was so much fun and like you can see just beautiful. Some times I can't believe we really live here!! And get to see all this in person. I feel so lucky.
These are a couple pictures from the beginning on the trail. I don't know if you can see just how steep it really was.
Moose was pretty tired after the hike! Which we were thankful for. Isn't she cute! One spoiled little dog with a mat big enough for a dog three times her size. She had the whole back section to herself, with the seats folded down and a nice bed all made for her.
This is the sign in front of the cute little restaurant we ate at.
I also got some pretty roses!

Hey guys! I love looking for your blog it's so interiesting to me.. i think i like it so much because i try to see as much of alaska before i live there so i love to look at the back ground of your guys pictures! But yes Happy anniversary!! and the reason i text you guys a day early was because my phone was already dead and brandons was right there behind mine so i guess it's better to be earlier then later right?! haha Love you guys!
That moose girl is VERY spoild... do i get the same treatment when i come...?
Looks beautiful!!! Oh how I wish I could go there with the family in July!! The view is beautiful!! You guys are really lucky to be living there!! Sounds like you guys had a fun anniversary!! Fun to bring moose girl along!! What did you guys do with her while you ate dinner? She is a cutie!! VERY spoiled!! I can't imagine what it will be like with a real child!! HA HA!! We LOVE you guys and MISS you tons!!!
I'm lauging at Kaylynn's comments because she thinks Moose girl is spoiled......Kaylynn, honey, so is Craig! You are funny. Ok breathtaking views is an understatement. I am in awe! I seriously have never seen something so beautiful. People that think AZ is beautiful are crazy. Alaska......beautiful. It looks fake or something - like a fake background you guys are standing in front of. You are doing great on taking so many pictures of it. Someday you will forget just how pretty it was, until you look back at the pics. Amazing. HAPPY ANNIVERSARY (again) Where did the last year go? It's crazy. What a fun adventure to go on. I'm glad you guys had fun, including Moose Girl. I hate hiking, but if I got to see something that beautiful at the top I might be up for it. Here???? Not so much. love you guys
I can't wait to see all of that in person!! I'm on the countdown- it's getting closer and starting to seem more real! I'm glad you guys had such a fun time! Congrats on the one year! Love you both so much and am so glad you are both a part of our family! See you soon!
Is that you at your house with the roses? I love the wall hanging! Beautiful roses too Josh- you guys are so good at taking so many memorable pictures.
COngrat on your year!! Yeah! It's all down hill from here! You guys have to go back up there at the end of July-beginning of August and see the Beluga whale in that bay!! So cute!
