Family dinner

Calvin was all tuckered out... Smiley Taylee was a bit more lively than her cousin!
Later during our meal... Calvin is learning how to drink from a cup. Sometimes he does a really good job and other times he misses his lips entirely and dumps the whole glass on himself, (and Grandma in this instance.)
It is SO SO nice to have Aunty Ash and cousin Taylee back in Fairbanks again!

The Kuskokwim Campus

These buildings are pretty much the entire campus. This is the student housing and cafeteria.
Because of permafrost Bethel has above-ground water and sewer pipes. This one has a boardwalk over the pipes which stretches across the tundra toward the hospital.
This is the veiw behind the campus.

This is the main enterance... KuC's "Signers' Hall." Bethel is home to a hospital, which provides health care services to about 50 villages in the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta.
I think it looks like a bubbley bright spaceship on stilts, hahaha.

Donkey Kong

Jeremy bought Calvin his first monster truck(s). He actually bought him 3 but has only given him one so far. We want to make sure he is actually ready for this "big boy" toy :)

Ice Park

Calvin is really too young to fully enjoy the World Ice Art Championships' Kids Park, but we did have fun on a few small ice slides. Next year should be super fun!

New table and chairs

Perfect size for our little artist to color :)

I bought the table and chairs used from Once Upon a Child. What a wonderful store! I also found some great board books, only $0.50 each!

Deviated Septum Surgery

Jeremy won't allow me to post any pictures of him, and I don't really blame him. It isn't a very pretty site... He had surgery on his sinuses and is staying the night at the hospital. The surgery should help him breathe (reducing snoring) and finally clear up his chronic sinus infections! YAY!!! Calvin and I came by in the evening to keep him company for a while and to eat some dinner. I don't know why, but hospital food is so good. Calvin is enjoying Daddy's chicken strips and french fries from the hospital cafe.
