Alaska...The Last Frontier

As if this free ride we had taken wasnt sweet enough already, our last flight only had one layover. In Anchorage, Alaska, where Thomas has been since April. Do I hear a "Yaaaay!!! We get to see Daddy!!!!"
Our flight ended up being delayed, and we didn't land until around 7:30 pm local time, so we were only there for a few hours. But a few is better than none! We never made it off base, but here are some pics I took from the base while we were going to get dinner.




This picture was taken from our room at 11pm, It didn get dark until around 2am and was daylight again at 4:30am.






It was beautiful there, and I do plan to go back for a longer visit sometime soon.

I'm so glad you all got to go see Thomas! We miss you all in Mississippi now. We didn't get to spend nearly enough time with you guys but were very grateful to see you. Call me when you can!

shannan: i am sure you are all so exhausted. as a space-a veteran, i am just amazed how well the trips worked out. you were truly blessed (no doubt for your unending determination and patience). glad you made it home safely.
