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.

FAMILY

I personally haven't had this experience and the realization that family is what you make of it. This has been a difficult year, being extremely far away from family and not really having those people around to call family.
This memorial day weekend, I got a chance to spend time with Kristina's family. Most of them are not blood related, but friends. Much more, friends that are always there.

I think on this. Am I allowing others to be family with me? Or am I the cause of the distant relationship between all my friends? Many that will read this are close friends, but I could do better. Weather you live near or far, family is what you make of it.


It has been proven to me. To know that just in any family, we have faults, but we all need support. I want to thank Kristina for inviting me into their family this weekend. You are a great person!

Here are some pictures of the family I spent the weekend with.

It looks like a great weekend.
I think Juneau has taught me more about having that "extended family" you're talking about. Glad you had a good time with some of your Juneau family.
