Fall weather has arrived


The fall weather of Alaska has arrived, which means wind and rain storms.  Since we are still learning about our community in Eagle River and what options we have for kid entertainment on rainy afternoons - we sought creativity in our own home.

When I brought the camera out to snap a photo of our rainy day entertainment, Lukkas crawled over and said, "Cheese" - His spoken vocabulary sure is growing - peeze (please), cheese, Ainna (Leinna), Momma, Papa (yep - he finally said papa this weekend - sure made Leif smile), tractor, dog, ball, and a few more grunts and squeals that we can usually make out depending on the situation.  

So our rainy day entertainment -
Really... we can jump on the chair?  Are you sure Momma - are you sure it's okay?  

Yes! Have at it kids!  

They had so much fun jumping on the chair - we took the cushion off and laid some pillows on the floor - they climbed and jumped for hours.  Easy and free entertainment - plus Papa and I were able to watch the football games and get house work done while kids were happy!

Hoping this rainy weather will clear on out and we can go get some new scenery pictures of the trees changing colors before the leaves all blow off.  In Cordova, there were a handful of trees that would change colors, but here in Eagle River, it's like the whole mountain sides - it's really pretty and like I said, hope I can snap some photos soon.  Until then  - we'll be enjoying our jumpy chair!
