When I was stationed at Ft Wainwright for 3 yrs I would spend many hours out just sitting in car watching North Lights for hours, this was back in the mid to late 1970s!
Che meraviglia bellissima Aurora boreale ....grazie per averci deliziato di questo
You are so welcome! Thanks for watching!
I am planning to take my youngest son to Chena Hot Springs around Christmas 2023 when he comes back home. He just left on deployment with the Marines today. Please be thankful to have your boys with you. They grow up so fast and then you can’t protect them anymore.
China is a favorite activity. I did in Alaska when I went to visit grandchildren I saw the northern lights I saw snow now I’m back in Hawaii and really wanna go back I love Alaska.❤oh yea they took me to the ice place
You and modern Alaska homestead was there at the same time. Looks like a lot of fun
Totally laughed out loud at Megan going down the ice slide!😂😂😂
She was awesome. My fear of slipping on ice stopped me from participating.

Loved your video and seeing your trip with your sister. I wish I could go to the springs but am highly allergic to sulfur that I couldn't go near it. Looked so fun! Welcome back.
How beautiful and spectacular are those photographs. Definitely need to frame and enjoy forever. Glad you have taken time to care for yourself. 😊
I can’t even fathom the beauty of the sky. I love spending time with my sister when I can. We are miles apart but that doesn’t stop us. Enjoy your togetherness
Very cool! Thank you.👍🏼😎
Thank you for taking us along - fantastic video and weekend adventure !!!
Ontario Canada
Thanks Pam!
We spent a week in Fairbanks last July. If you ever get a chance to go up during the summer, do the Discovery boat tour on the Chena River and go eat at the Pump House. It’s so funny that we hit every spot that you did on your visit, except for the ice obviously. Glad you had a great time with your sister and got to see the northern lights.
I would love to go back in summer. Thanks for watching!
I really enjoyed your video. You did so much in 2 days!! We went there in March. We chose not to go to the ice competition but now I'm wishing we would have! Thank you for sharing!
What a beautiful sight. Thank you for taking all of us. Glad you had a great trip.
Looked like you guys had fun
Hey I recently found your channel and I love it !!! I truly enjoy watching you and your precious family such wholesome videos, Im 52 years old and I live in South Carolina in the US, I was hoping you could recommend a great book for reading...may y'all have a blessed day
Hi Lauren,
Loved both of your videos. Glad you got to spend some time with your sister. You both made some incredible memories.
Another wonderful and educational video. 💕💜❤️.
Thank you for sharing ❤
That is a gorgeous gorgeous awesome light show. God is so good to us when he gets to show off His Creation. Thank you for sharing your amazing adventure with all of us.
Really beautiful! Brought tears to my eyes ❤
Aw, so glad you enjoyed it.
Absolutely amazing and beautiful, I could never handle the cold
Dressing right is key! Thanks for coming along virtually.
Beautiful! Thanks for sharing 🌸
My pleasure 😊
My family and I have been following you for awhile now! We really look forward to your videos ☺️
We are moving from NH to Fairbanks in May! So thank you for little sneak peaks on what we have to look forward to! ❤
What a great getaway. Such a "cool" place to visit; so much to see and do. The Northern Lights we're gorgeous. It looked like the heated jacket was working; hope it kept you warm and toasty. Thanks for sharing your sister trip.
So fun to have time with your sister. My Elder was able to see the lights in Wasilla this last week so that was cool
They were AMAZING last week. I will show them in video very soon!
what a fantastic stuffs you have showed us about fairbanks and find really interesting and beautiful there.:: i came close of coming to fairbanks ways back in 2008 but i ended up getting sick and didn’t go to fairbanks from washington state.: so ill have another opportunity to do so soon to make trip to fairbanks one of my longtime goals
That was beautiful
Wow beautiful Love it♥️♥️♥️
Thank you for taking us on your trip. So different than the California/Arizona desert.
Thank you Lauren,hope you told Santa we are all being good.
You got to see the Northern Lights twice!! How fantastic are the photos, though, that the tour company took 👍 I loved Santa's house, never too old for a little Christmas magic. The ice carvings, even though incomplete just seeing how it's done, are amazing. I loved every single moment of this trip. ❤️
Enjoyed the tour of the ice festival👍🏼😊
wow those ice and snow sculptures were amazing! Thanks for taking us along Lauren always enjoy your videos about Alaska
That was absolutely beautiful, the aurora's just amaze me.
I am in awe EVERY time I get to witness them! Thanks for watching!!
I know Santa also has a home in Finland, he probably needs both because he is such a busy person. The ice show looked like so much fun. Fabulous weekend.
Wow amazing 🤩
I really enjoyed seeing you & your Sister visit all these wonderful places. I loved every minute of it!
I'm so glad! Thanks for taking the time to let me know!
What s super few days, you had. And the best was seeing the beautiful Aurora Borealis! I love the Santa Clause House. We stopped there, after Delta Junction, coming in from the Yukon, heading towards Fairbanks on our 2nd visit, a bazillion years ago...when the Santa Clause house was smaller. Some year we will return! Thanks for taking us along. Vickie from SE Pa
Your pix are AWESOME of the northern lights‼️ Everything you did was FUN‼️ Thanks for taking us along‼️It was great you and your sis were able to get awa y and do this little trip together‼️ The ice sculptures were great too‼️ You really did a lot in a small amount of time👍
That was a wonderful trip you shared, Lauren. My nephew is stationed up in the North Pole area and occasionally sends some northern lights photos. Those bowls and wooden designs were beautiful! I bet you were excited to return home to your boys!
I absolutely loved this. The Lights and Ice were spectacular. Thank you for sharing. I had a smile on the whole time.❤
You should have met the Somers Family, while there! I watch their channel too!! This makes me want to go back to Alaska! I want to see the Northern Lights so bad!!
I don't know Somers in Alaska, but I have met Bert's sister Jessica Violet. Maybe one day I will connect with Somers, I am not sure they know who I am. LOL
thank you for the northern light show. loved it
Our pleasure!
Enjoyed going on the trip with you & your sister. Beautiful sites. Love your channel.
Thanks so much!
Thanks for sharing such a wonderful trip. Hopefully one day I will get to see the northern lights and see Alaska.
I hope so too!
So amazing. What a memory.
That was an amazing getaway. Glad you had a great time. Thanks for taking us along.
Our pleasure!
Thank you so much for showing us this - what a special experience. Thanks for wearing different coloured hats, very difficult to tell you apart otherwise! What amazing carvings, absolutely wonderful, and such skills
Glad you made it to the North Pole. Shame you couldn't get some warm tops from Melissa while there. They don't disappoint keeping you comfy in the cold temperatures.
Really enjoy the ice carvings and activities.
Just love the Alaskan Bowl Company. Sherry goes there and it's full of wonderful gifts.
I’ve ordered from her launch before!
Never knew how much I missed Fairbanks and North Pole until I "went" with you and your sister. I need to go back!!!
Hope you make it back ! I want to go back again sometime as well!
Beautiful Northern Lights. That is #1 on My Bucket List but being handicapped now somewhat I doubt I will ever see them. I loved the Ice Sculptures. I have watched Somers in Alaska and Violet Logs for a long time. My husband and I took a cruise to Alaska years ago in September 2010 and I loved the clean air smell. The weather was beautiful. We went to Juneau, Ketchikan and Skagway. Thank you for the showing the Chino Springs too.
That was beautiful thank you for taking us along
I have never seen this! Thank you so much for bringing us along on your trip!
What an awesome adventure thank you for taking me along
It was fun watching you and your sister enjoy the time ❤️
Wonderful. A spectacular show. Thank you.
What a wonderful trip for you and your sister.
Amazing. Was wanting to ask how was covid there as wondering if being away from people as such helped. Here in England was awful. But just wonder. Take care. Jo
The Northern Lights were spectacular! Looks like you both had a wonderful trip! Thanks for taking us along! The Ice Festival was very interesting, lots of work went into that!
Aww thanks for sharing your weekend. I loved it. It was something I will never experience, so again thankyou xx
Beautiful adventure Lauren .. this will be great memories with your sister . The lights were beautiful ! Thank You for sharing this educational trip with us !
Nice that you are getting some sister time❤️. Thank you for sharing the Northern Lights for us. Enjoy🇺🇸💕
You are so welcome! Sister time was a great bonus!
Such a fun trip! So nice to have a great trip with your sister!
It was! Nice little break.
Great video love the lights and snow sculptures 😊looks like a fun place to visit
I can only TRY to tell you how much I have enjoyed this get away vlog. You should be very proud of how well these ( part1 and part2) came out. Your very talented. Bravo!
What a great sister adventure. My sister and I also love to go on short adventures together.
Hi Lauren, this looked like an awesome trip, I enjoyed it, I hope you had a great trip with your sister. I hope you have a nice week. 😊
The Northern lights were so beautiful!!! Everything you did looked so fun and interesting! We have been getting some Northern Lights here in Saskatchewan which isn't unusual but it is in my area! I haven't had the chance to go see any because I get up so earlier for work!
Thanks for taking us along!!
Our pleasure!
Really looked like a lot of fun. Great you got to get some adult time with your sister.
I thought you would have been at the Fur Rondi ? Watched some of it on and off.
We have a town full of German 🎄 Christmas. Love to go there..
That sounds fun! Thanks for watching.
Thank you so much for the trip to Fairbanks, I had such a great time! I really felt like I was there with you. My favorite would have to be the Arora Borealis, oh my goodness I absolutely loved the time lasp photography Breathtaking! I gotta say Santa & his workshop was pretty impressive I would love to visit there!! Was the town really called the North Pole?
I'm glad you got Sister time in & that you really enjoyed your time together!!! 💖
I am so glad they got the aurora footage because my camera did not capture it as well as theirs did. Yes, the town is North Pole!

That is really so cool! ❄️
Just gorgeous ❤️ Beautiful pics with the northern lights. Thoughts maybe you'd meet up with Jessica Violett but she may have been on her family vacation. You did pack a bunch into your trip. Thanks for entertaining us.
Good Afternoon Hamm Family ❤️
It's a cold, dreary, rainy day here in Virginia. Mother Nature is being bipolar. The weather app says it's 46°F, but feels like 44°F. The humidity is 95%, but unlike summer, it's a chilly, yet comfy type of humidity. Got the storm-door window cracked. Loving this lazy day... makes me wanna take a nap 🥱
I definitely will check into the Aurora in Alaska tour company if I ever make it to Alaska. Love when companies go the extra mile to make their customers' experiences that much better. The Aurora is absolutely mesmerizing, so beautiful. You and Megan look so happy. The time-lapse was amazing. Our son's friends just experienced the Aurora in North Dakota a week ago, give or take. Even when things don't go as planned, make the most of each adventure. You may get to experience something new from what didn't go according to plan 🌌
Love the architecture and artwork of Santa Claus's House. The ice cream, bakery and other fare, as well as, all the fun products look amazing. Love the Moose pajamas and I really want one of those gnomes 🤶🏻
I knew Reindeer are the domesticated cousin of the wild Caribou; what I didn't know, were the laws regarding the selling of Alaska wildlife as food. It makes sense that you want to make sure the products are safe for consumption. I guess this means no Alaska Boys Jerky for me 😕
Love the Moose sculpture at the entrance to the Cookie Jar. Too cute. That cinnamon roll... add a cup of hot tea... ahhh... bliss 😌
I have a whole Pinterest board dedicated to sand, snow and ice sculptures I've found and love online. I've been to a few sand sculpture competitions/festivals in Florida and Virginia. Ice and snow takes it up a notch. The talent is awe-inspiring. So many beautiful works of art. The blue of the ice is a beauty unto itself. Megan looked like she was having a blast on the sled ride. You both were having too much fun playing all those ice games 🧊
The Great Alaska Bowl Company is something I'll definitely have to look up. So much amazing, fun, yummy and beautiful products. My favs: the Bear-shaped and the Moose-engraved cutting boards, the Alaska Sourdough Cookbook and the painted bowls, especially the purple floral one 💐
Love the indoor and outdoor murals at The Crepery. Beautiful, just like the food. My favorite crepe is: Nutella with bananas, strawberries and fresh whipped cream... Yummy 😋
I'm so happy that you and Megan had such a wonderful adventure. Thank you for taking me along 🙂
Hi Mark, Boys and Miss Luna. Everett's and Weston's smiles say it all, "Welcome Home Mom" 😍
Have a wonderful day and weekend ahead. Stay safe. Stay warm. Stay happy. Yah's Blessings ❤️
Thank you
Che meraviglia bellissima Aurora boreale .
Thank you for watching!
