Fun Filled Saturday!

Wow, what a day! This morning Brett and I woke up and headed out to check out some garage sales - one of our favorite Saturday morning activities! We found some great deals! Afterward, we headed to the Knotty Shop, a gift shop Brett used to work at. We then went to visit SANTA CLAUS in North Pole, Alaska! WAHOOO! Our day hasn't ended yet, we also went to the Large Animal Research Station, the Botanical Gardens AND the Museum!

I wish I had pictures of garage sales but the photo journey begins here at...

Giant MOSQUITO! YIKES!!



SANTA HOUSE - North Pole, AK




Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Vixen, Comet...???

The whole city of North Pole is Christmas themed!

Botanical Gardens!!













The cabbages in AK are HUGE from all of the sun!
John Travolta scarecrow!

Near the Botanical Garden is the building where the first LDS branch met in Fairbanks.


This is the building...
THE MUSEUM






Now we're cuddled up watching a little movie.
WONDERFUL DAY! :)

I love how you two are always up to something. Your blog not only shows how great Alaska summers are, but how fun being a young married couple is, good job! You guys should teach an marriage institute class:)
