Dad goes to the teaching fair in Anchorage

Hello Y'all! Well we got to spend three years in King Cove, AK. fishing, hunting, hiking and riding 4 wheelers. We have met some lifetime friends and will take many memories with us.
Andy didn't get rehired for the 08-09 school year so he is going to Anchorage to find another awesome place to live.

After being in Anchorage for a few days and meeting with different School Districts, Andy got a job teaching Art & Music in Yakutat, Ak. which is located in the South East of Alaska. We will be traveling to our new home Aug. 27.

We are very excited to see a new place in Alaska. There is great fishing, hunting & surfing there. Yes, surfing! They are holding a surfing extravaganza there in Yakutat during the month of June. I looks like we may get to learn how to surf!

We will take alot of pictures and let you see how our new home is. Take care! The Larsen's

Saije goes to Juneau for ASAG

Saije is the Vice pres. so for Student Government, 2 of them got to go to Juneau and meet the Governor. When she got into Anchorage she called home saying the flight was ok, but there is a blizzard! For a minuet she thought she was back in King Cove! She stayed over night at the Millenium and got to see Elyse and Terence and eat at Taco Bell! She then flew out the next morning to Juneau. They stayed very busy, she didn't even have enough time check out all the shops. It is a cool place, all the buildings are on the mountain and the mountain runs straight to the water where the cruise ships dock. Saije began hugging trees like she never saw one before. She wants to move there! While she was in her meetings she met a 16 year old Native Flute Player. She bought me one of his CD's, the proceeds go to FASD (fetal alcohol syndrome research) He preformed at the conference, I never knew that she liked guys with long hair? JK!

Trace swallowed his tooth?


Ya, today the Muck was eating school lunch and the dessert was cake. Oh, how he loves his cake!
I was in my class when Traces teacher came in and asked me into the hall. It has been happening a lot. If it's not Trace having girls fight over him, it is girls trying to hold his hand. Anyway, she let me know that Trace has swallowed his tooth. He stood there looking at me as if it was no big deal. I asked him if he felt ok and how it happened? His reply was, "I was taking a bite of cake and my tooth got stuck in it so I went a head and ate it!" He never wastes a good thing. All he wants for Christmas is a Wii, and his teeth before he turns 8! He is doing great in school, we just got his midterm and he is in the 97% in his class. His reading level is at 3.5 (almost as good as the 4th graders) Lars saids that he reads better than his 4th graders. He's Awesome! Even if he is toothless!
