About Me

My photo
Hello! I am Bethany, a mom of 4 beautiful children, a owner of a dog, and married to a miner/hunter. (Camo is a popular color in our home). We recently relocated to the UP of Michigan from Juneau,Alaska...a huge adjustment. I have a passion for photography and documenting our journey through life. But, most of the time Im busy with my kids, hiding in the bathroom for peace and quiet, or trying to find my dog because he runs away all the time. Welcome to our world...always full of adventure.

TODAY: THE VIEW

I am not talking about the show. Today is a day to celebrate and show the love to your family. I didn't sleep well last night though. Andy is working night shift so I slept on the couch and let the dog sleep inside. Well, the dog was farting all night and the smell doesn't just go away either. (I should have just gotten up and went to my room). And then around 3am Mattie woke up and ran down the hall in the dark. So, I layed her down next to me and needless to say, I was between a rock and a hard place. Fun Fun.

Anyway, I took these picts while running my errands the other day. These are all my shopping stops. Enjoy the errands with me...and the view.




The kids, Morgan and Mattie fell asleep...


The view of my street. My house is the brown one tucked in behind the tree.
The view of downtown Juneau, AK. This is definately a tourist trap! In the winter, it is a ghost town and none of these shops are open.
Further up the road is the capital building and the governors mansion (Sarah Palin).

The view from Walmart...were I do a lot of our shopping besides grocery. Here you will find Ravens on every post waiting for someone to drop food. They are really annoying birds and pray on peoples groceries. People have put food in the back of their vehicles and left for a minute to come back and find their groceries gone! They literally can carry bags of groceries away.
Along our way, we made a quick stop at McDonalds drive thru for a happy meal. I took this picture because of the cool ice cicles.
The view from the Safeway Gas Station. There is beauty all around...

How neat to take picture of your day like this. It's amazing how much the beautiful scenery shows up in your pictures but I don't always notice it when I'm on my shopping trip. I guess my mind is usually focused on my shopping list and getting my kids safely into the store. Thanks for pointing out the bigger picture to me.
