Catching Up

As stated in previous blogs, the Belleques are in the midst of a very busy summer. Here are a few pictures to help tell the story.

Alethia at her Head Start Graduation. She graduated a few days before they left for Anchorage.

Kyle, Jake, and Alethia at the airport when the were leaving for Anchorage.

Alethia at H2Oasis (an indoor water park in Achorage).
Jake, Alethia, and their friend Anika. They've known Anika for a long time. Her family recently moved back to Anchorage.

Jake and his Nana Shelley (Jo's sister Michelle). Jake wasn't so sure about all the comotion at H2Oasis so he sat with his Nana for a while. Once he gave it a try he really got into it. Shelley is with child right now too. Her and Jo always seem to get pregnant at the same time.
Our new house. Well, part of our new house anyway. Here the deck is complete. The top deck is 20'x24' and each lower deck is 8'x24'. So over all it's 36'x24', but that includes a 6'x8' covered deck and 18'x8' arctic entry (we have lots of gear and need the space!). The ridge will run parallel to the lower decks. That way the house can continue growing along the ridge line keeping everything under one roof. We start framing tomorrow.



Here's Dad working hard two boards at at time. Dad consitutes my crew. I get other help here and there but he's my main man. He's holding up pretty well for a fella born well before the Korean Conflict.

Of course you notice what's missing. My wife. Johanna is always the one taking the pictures. She says the baby will wait for its due date, but I'm ready to fly in at any time. Until then, I'm busy making hay while the sun shines.
