Thank you, Nana and Papa!

This week, we got a great package in the mail from Nana and Papa - gifts from Alaska! Andrew and Logan got Alaska shirts and wooden train whistles (yeah, THANKS A LOT - they've been blowing them almost non-stop!), I got a pretty siver bracelet, Bryan got a funny Alaska shirt (sushi for Bryan - perfect!), and Hannah got a super soft Husky puppy.

Hannah loved petting his face and tail!

Mmmm! He's tasty too!

Thank you, Nana and Papa! We are anxiously awaiting your Alaska cruise pictures and report on the blog!
