New Friends! (Or "cousins" per Cyrus)

Sunday afternoon hike on Hatcher Pass
Chadd jerry-rigged Cyrus' tricycle to accommodate pushing for a easier paced evening family walk.



Came across an old deserted mine. We didn't go it (only because it was barred off inside...)

Yay! We finally had a friend day. Tamira and her sister and two kids, who we met last Friday, invited Cyrus and I along to visit her friend Kim and her two girls. Cyrus was very excited, and insisted on being fully outfitted for the occasion, complete with his "helmet," froggy backpack, firemanboots, and "thingy" in his left hand. He had a blast. As you can see in the movie...


Yes, Kim has pet reindeer. She grew up on the renown Reindeer Farm, which her parents still run. This is Jenny. She's a two year old reindeer who thinks she's a dog. Kim bottle fed her and is teaching her to pull a sled for her kids and to do pull her in skijoring. He just walks around their house. It's quite amusing!



 Is it a dog? A sheep? No actually it's a cow called a Highlander. Built for Alaska weather for sure. They are so short and fluffy I couldn't help laughing!
