Sunny Yurt and Kaya Comes Home Again

Ahhhhhhhh. The best thing about February is more sun light. When it isn't cloudy, snowing, or raining that is. When the sun is out and it warms up, we take off our window covers and insulation inserts (which have been closed all winter for heat retention) and let the light pour in.

A sunny day after a big snow.

In family news: Kaya is wearing every one out!

We actually just got back from a 5 day stay at the hospital for a respiratory virus Kaya contracted. She gave us a good scare but is home now and doing well. Here is the happy mama and her bewildered baby just home from the hospital.

Kaya being well again and coming home today was the best Valentines gift we could have received. The chocolates were nice too though.
Thanks to every one who helped take care of Leo, the dogs, brought us things in the hospital, sent us warm wishes, and offered to help us out. It made us realize how fortunate we have been in the past year and a half to make such wonderful Alaska friends who we consider to be our Alaskan family.
