Fourth of July Weekend

We really enjoyed the long weekend for fourth of July- here are a few highlights:

We went rafting on the Kenai river. Everyone went except for James and Grandma Mauger- we didn't know how strong the rapids would be so we played it safe and didn't take James with us.

It was such a pretty day while we were rafting! Here are two landscape pictures to show you a little bit of Alaska!

We met up with James and Grandma Mauger afterwards and took some pictures with James- this was one of the few pictures that Matt wasn't making a silly face in

Us with one of the rafts

Here is James thinking haha

For Sunday we made some yummy desserts- can you see the flag in this next picture?

Here are some "Oreo" cookies that I made with red, white and blue frosting... they were yummy!

With the leftover fruit we made some red, white and blue skewers. I dipped the strawberries in white chocolate. Mm mmm!

I am so very jealous of your Alaska adventures :) Luckies! Little James is getting so big. By the time we see him again he'll probably be walking and tying his shoes. :)
