Seldovia Trip 2

It was warm enough on Sunday for Hunter to take a bath outside. This was after we played with our toes in the warm sand down the beach from the cabin.

Hunter really enjoyed sitting in Grandma and Grandpa's new chairs. He liked that he could sit up and see what was going on.


I think he has my eyes.




Relaxing with mom after a successful octopus hunt.


Uncle Ben on baby duty.


Grandma and Hunter reading the paper. Hunter really likes the ads!


Thank goodness we didn't have twins!



Cousin Elizabeth or thin Lizzy as Mark likes to call her. She is 3 months younger than Hunter and made us realize just how fast everything changes. She was so sweet and fun to hold.
Grandma's best friend, especially when there is watermelon involved!


He just can't get enough.





Cousin face-off. Shortly after the picture, they battled it out to see whose lungs were louder.


Fishing for Black Rockfish or Black Bass. We kept mine and cooked it for dinner back in Anchorage, it was really great. They taste just about as good as halibut but are caught in about 20 feet of water instead of 100-200 feet.

Mark, Ben, and Grandpa Hamm had caught about 12 this size or bigger 2 days before. They thought we needed to go back and try again since they had such good luck. It wasn't as hot as previously , but I really enjoyed it.


One of Mark's better catches of the day.



Hunter chillin' while we caught fish. His little blue suit has replaced the brown bear suit, seen in so many other photos,for the chilly cabin weather.


Despite raining everyday but one it was still a nice trip to the cabin. We ate lots of good fresh sea food, played games, read books, and enjoyed being with family. Hunter is a little trooper and enjoys going along on hikes and fishing trips. We love summertime in AK!

I cannot get Benson to eat watermelon. I think he hates textures because he hardly eats anything but Cheerios. Hunter is adorable and I can't wait to meet him in about a week.
