Good evening Lauren and Mark and family and thank you for sharing your beautiful day 🌞 😊
When you have grandpa and grandma you don't need anybody else. They can do and fix anything
The grandparents are so great. You are so right about having them around. You don't fully appreciate them until they are gone. I relied on my parents so much. They are gone now and they are sorely missed.
WOW - that is a great course‼️👍 And your sons really did an AWESOME job on the course‼️ THANKS HUNTER for taking us on the course‼️👍😊💙Your rock painting is beautiful Lauren👍😊The Jr. Ranger activity books were really great‼️Never apologize for anything you tape. Your videos are ALWAYS AMAZING and I enjoy every one of them‼️You do GREAT with ALL you do Lauren‼️👍😊❤️ I just LOVE YOUR FAMILY‼️👍😊I love how Luna talks to you👍
Some people live in a place and never really know it! Your family is 100% engaged and truly part of your surroundings! Thanks for the insider tours!
Alaska is so huge and there is so much we have yet to explore. But, we do try to really enjoy living here and experience what it has to offer. Thanks for watching!
I travelled to Antarctica on an expedition holiday, we were all given bright orange jackets to wear on the isolated trips to shore where the only company was 🐧 🐧 🐧, 🦭 🦭 🦭 and loads of 🦅 🦢 🦅. We weren't expected to wear them when we visited the 2 towns we stopped at..Port Stanley and Ushuaia.
I think I would enjoy Alaska very much. Thank you for sharing your adventures xx
I had never seen it but it made sense. Everyone sure stood out. Thanks for watching!
The kiddos have to sleep so good at night!! All those fun activities!! Fun fun fun and great memories!! 😀😀
Thank you sharing your beautiful family with us here, and all the adventures you go on. Reminded me of some fun camping memories as a kid on the Oregon coast. Wonderful job on your painted rocks, you all are so talented. I thought your wildflowers one was gorgeous!
Thanks! My mom kept the wildflower one. She loved it too. Thanks for coming along for the fun!
Glad you guys are having. Fun.
Thanks for watching!
Thank you guys, you are keeping me amused as I recover in my isolation week from my first bout of covid. So far the symptoms are just fairly minor so fingers crossed. My husband is testing negative so far of course. We are in Melbourne Australia. Sending hugs and love, Karen Peter and Rocky the kitty xxxx
Feel better Karen. I'm in Delaware USA & we've had it twice..in late 2020 and about a0 year ago. Hope your symptoms are minimal .I lost my taste buds for a while and then things I loved I couldn't consume..coffee..chocolate. peanut butter..strange..but it came bk.it also caused high blood pressure briefly & made my sugar spike and I'm not diabetic. Everything returned to normal thankfully
@@mimi0424 hi Michelle, feeling a little better today. Am on antiviral therapy as I am already lesser abled. Am hoping for not much more affecting me longer term than maybe extra fatigue. I hope I have no longer term issues like aversion to chocolate. That would be bad news for me. Have barely eaten all week but am craving salty foods even more than normal. Keep safe. I am in Melbourne Australia.
@@karenbaker5800 glad to hear your on the mend. Not everyone gets weird things. But I was one & it freaked me out lol. Chocolate is coming back. It depends on the brand. Lol. Same w coffee. I ❤️ it. I honestly have a little coffee w my creamer let's say lol my husband calls it blonde & sweet & it's actually true..after the creamer or milk is added w the sweetener (I use Splenda or Stevia) is resembles blonde hair lol. But I just wanted you to know you're in my prayers..I know we don't know each other but that's the magic of social media these days! Sending best wishes from Delaware USA 🇺🇸
Thanks for sharing your experience with me and keeping me in your prayers as I have kept you in mine. Replying from Moonee Ponds, a suburb of Melbourne Australia.
Luna is so happy ya'll are home! Great camping adventure!
You guys really pack alot into your vacation! Bike riding,mural hunting, rock painting,and hiking,to name a few! So nice to be able to do it with your parents, your sister and her family. To bad Mark missed out on it. Thanks for sharing your Seward vacation, Lauren!
Hi Lauren! I just wanted to say how dearly in love I am with your channel, your family, all of your adventures, cooking and hauls! Ever since I’ve discovered your channel, I’ve been binge watching video after video. Please keep up the amazing work. I really look forward to your uploads! 💕
Wow, thank you so much! I appreciate the support and kind words. I’m doing my best to bring you all along for the fun! 😘
Love the painted pebbles and rocks - the pink flowers one is especially beautiful ❤
oh you all just make me smile....thanks for sharing all you do!
💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖 loved this so much! Thanks for sharing it. I want to move there so badly. I wish I had known that when I was 20 years younger. Your dad is awesome, too.
P.S. my best friend in middle/ high school was Mormon and her family introduced me to the hobo dinner cooked on a campfire. Her mom also made delicious buckwheat pancakes . Best pancakes I have ever had. Wonderful family. Wish I hadn't lost touch but they moved away and then i did, too. 💖
That looked like a perfect camping spot/trip to me. If I lived in Alaska, that is where you would find me. Those painted rocks turned out so cute. So fun! Hard work for mama, but awesome memories I’m sure.
Glad you all had so much fun.
good morning family i am so happy your all having fun thanks for sharing love from pa
You're welcome! So glad you enjoyed coming along.
Hello from Nottingham UK,, love watching your adventures,, we used to have safeways, years ago,, visiting Alaska is on my bucket list.
This was a great trip. You showed me Alaska and places I’m not likely to see in person. I’m about to celebrate my 74th bday! I enjoy seeing your family and the various activities you participate in. Blessings! Susan
Love your rock paintings. Ice cream and peach cake while camping ❤
Wow such fun for the kids!! Your boys are Awesome! Thank you for sharing some of your vacation. Your wild flower rock is Beautiful!!
Thanks so much! My mom kept the wildflower one, she didn't want to leave it behind.
Good morning Lauren , so nice to see you.
Thanks Anna! Glad to have you here.
The Junior Ranger activities were brilliant! Always great to mix the learning into the fun.
Seward does seem like a great place to camp, relax
(even with Mom duties) and get some good outdoors exercise.
Wonderful holiday.
We were so active this week, it was so great. Thanks for watching, hope you have a great week.
@@ThisAlaskaLife I hope clean up and laundry are completed. AND you have reset to your normal energy and routine. ☺
I had a blast in Seward!! Thanks for taking me along!
You're so welcome! Thanks for being here with us!
Gorgeous upload and atmosphere, simply enjoyable content.
I loved your Seward trip, I feel like I have been on holidays too. Thanks Lauren
Absolutely love your family vacation vlogs and watching all the fun adventures! And- just wanted to say you’re incredibly talented, your rock art painting is amazing!!!
Thank you for the tour of Seward. It was great to see the kids become Junior Rangers since it kept them busy discovering the park and learning . Everett's bike skills are improving dramatically!
He is doing much better on the bike! Slow and steady progress! Thanks for watching!
Your boys make my heart skip a beat. They are fearless.
Agreed! They are fearless! Thanks for watching!
I so admire your Mom skills😊👏👏👏
Great job guys looks like lots of fun
Beautiful art work I enjoyed your family adventures. Reminds me of when our kids were little and my Mom and sisters would go camping with our kids loved it great memories for sure.
Lauren! Those painted rocks you did are beautiful! Great job! And all those meals looked super yummy!
Thanks so much! 😊I have really found painting the rocks relaxing now that we use the paint pens. In the past we did them with paint brushes and it was such a mess that I could never really enjoy it. Thanks for watching, hope you have a great week!
Looks like so much fun! Love the rock paintings!
Thanks! Painting rocks has become very relaxing to me. Thanks for watching!
Love love love loved it! What a wonderfull trip boys great at skate and bike park/track, getting their rangers stickers badges ect looked such great fun, your dad is too sweet fixing the young mans bike,and his meal in the foil looked delicious, so glad Everett coming along on his bike, ice creams looked delicious and seeing little luna was so sweet she loves her mum, great trip!😊😍🇬🇧💖🤗🇬🇧
The best! Thanks for coming along. Much love from ALASKA!
Great job painting the rocks!! Miss our daughters being young.
Thanks! I had a great time doing the rocks. Thanks for watching!
Hi Lauren and family lovely video love your painted rocks
Thanks so much 😊
What a terrific time! I love your rock painting. Very talented.
Thank you so much! I have really come to enjoy doing the rock painting since we have the paint pens. Game changer!
Buen dia saludos desde Mexicali Baja California Mexico me encantan sus transmidiones mui hermoso lugar donde usted vive, mi nombre es fabiola y siempre la sigo.
Hola Fabiola soy Ana..yo sigo a Lauren desde España...aquí hace un calor insoportable que tal por California? Un saludo.🌸
Thank you so much for watching! We are so grateful. Have a wonderful week!
@@anitaworking8033 hola aca esta muy caliente estamos a 98°f con sensacion termica de 104° se podria decir que todavia esta in poco soportable a la sombra por que hay ligeros nublados pero aqui es una zona desertica esta feo. Muchos saludos Anita y al igual que a usted tambien sigo este programa apenas tengo 1 año Y me encanta
Vivo en una ciudad también muy desértica..apenas árboles y montañas marrones jajajja...por eso me encanta ver el canal de Lauren, por el sitio tan bonito..los lagos y montañas nevadas y tanta vegetación...un saludo.
Great video. So many fun filled days for you all. Luna was so happy to see you . Thanks for sharing
Thank you 🤗
Thank you I like watching you and seeing how you live...... l couldn't live there ,I don't like snow
Good Morning family 🌅 and Happy Tuesday 😊
Good morning!
Another wonderful video - enjoyed every minute of it as I know you all enjoyed every minute of your trip to Seward. Thank you for sharing your life experiences - it is a very rich, full life with some amazing adventures.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you so much for being here with us!
You and your boys are quite the artists. I love all of you and your boys rocks. What a treat that would be to find one. I know if I found one I would cherish it and find an amazing place to show it off. I bet people would buy them that's how well I think you all do. I know I would buy some.
So many precious memories ❤️
YES! So many memories. One of our favorite weeks every summer. Cousin time always makes it special!
Thank you so much again for sharing your travels. Made me feel like I was there with you guys.
Our pleasure! That is my goal. So glad you enjoyed it!
I am new to your channel and I love your art work on the rocks. I love the scenery and The Loving family sense of Humor.....
Welcome! So happy to have you here. The painted rocks have been so fun. Using the paint pens has made all the difference! I hope you continue to enjoy watching our channel!
Loved part 2 awesome holiday 👍🦘
The painted rocks were fabulous.
Good job guys!!! Looks like so much fun!!!
Thanks so much!!
@@ThisAlaskaLife Yw
Your rocks were amazing!!! I would have kept it!! So pretty
I love the painted rocks.
Thanks! They are so fun!
Hi Lauren I just love your family ❤️
luv this so neat-- thank you so much for sharing!🥰
You're welcome! So glad you enjoyed it!
Loved the video!! The art rocks were great. Thkz for showing us around Seward!
Hi guys, good to see Seward again, you had better weather! We camped up by Moose Pass. Back in August 1989 you could walk up to the face if Exit Glacier and Portage Glacier lake was full of ice! Good to see boys being boys! You didn't show the Seward Jail! Cheers.
You are really talented Lauren. Those rocks are beautiful. The boys are having so much fun.
Thanks! I have found drawing on the rocks to be very relaxing. When we used to do it with paint and paint brushes it stressed me out (mostly because Everett paints everything including himself) Now, with the pens it is much easier. Thanks for coming along, we are so grateful!
Such a entertaining video your boys are so lucky to have family that they can make so many awesome memories with. ❤️
Thanks Shelly! I am doing my best to give them lot's of great experiences without breaking the bank! Thanks for watching !
Love this video…..you’re a great tour guide, Lauren 😍. Your painted rocks are so beautiful & your camping meals look so delicious 😋
Thanks Cheryl! So glad you enjoyed the tour. I am trying to bring you all along but make sure you know what you are actually looking at. Much love from Alaska!
Hi Lauren….. I’ve been on that exact same road when I visited Seward, which I loved. Saw a momma moose with her twins running down the road! It’s an awesome place! Spent a few nights on a beautiful yacht…..so much fun! Thanks for sharing!
Your boy's are adventures and you are a brave Mama Loved the tour of Seward
So glad you enjoyed coming along! Thanks for being here.
I so much enjoy your trips you take !! Looks like the camping trip was great ! The boys do great on their bikes .. and Everett is getting better in his ! Won’t be long and he will be wanting to do the jumps .. Lol. Poor Mom then ! The rocks were beautiful , you all did a great job ! Can’t wait for the next adventure with you all from Alaska !! Bless you all and prayers for you all .
Thank you so much! I am so glad you enjoyed coming along. My momma heart takes a lot when they are taking risks! Thanks for watching, we are so grateful!
Love all the local information you include
Love watching your adventures ❤️🇨🇦
Thank you! We are grateful to have you along!
Hi Lauren, I love this video!! Thanks for sharing. It was so sweet seeing your dad riding the bike & the hobo dinner look good too. The best part of this trip is all the memories for you & your kiddos that you’ve made with everyone specially with the grandparents. Have a wonderful week 💜
My Dad is great! He is constantly helping everyone around us at the camp sight. If you can't find him, he is usually a camp sight away helping someone with their motor home! It really is all about making memories. I enjoy just being in the moment when we are at Seward. Thanks for watching, I hope you have a wonderful week!
Good Morning Mark, Lauren and boys. I really enjoy watching your adventures. The glacier and scenery are beyond beautiful. I love that the boys are always doing and trying fun things, and congratulations on earning their Junior Ranger Badges. I remember when I was a kid earning a badge and certificate for completing a summer program for Junior Law Enforcement. My son was a member of the Civil Air Patrol when he was younger. Good times. Sorry Mark couldn't make it, but that's how things go sometimes. It's so nice that you stay in touch while you're away. Something we do as well. Too bad we can't do the same for our FurBabies when we're away, but the abundance of headbutts, wigglebutts, meows and loving barks upon our return makes up for it. Luna is so cute coming to welcome you home. She reminds me of our Esther whom we lost a few years ago, 2019. Keep making adventures no matter how big or small. Have many a blessed day ahead ❤️
Answer to your question:
In Chatham VA (Danville), an ear of fresh corn on the cob is $0.50 each ear. It's yummy and I have some in my fridge waiting to be eaten.
BTW, a gallon of whole milk is $3.96, and a gallon of gas is $3.38... seeing the prices in Alaska is shocking 😳
Hello Susan! So glad you enjoyed spending time with us. I enjoyed your comment very much, thanks for taking the time to connect. Much love from Alaska!
That's a lot of fun thanks for sharing I enjoy it. Seward looks beautiful would love to visit.
You're welcome! Thanks for coming along for the fun!
Thanking for sharing that adventure with us. Just beautiful scenery and looks like all the kids had a great time making awesome memories.
You're welcome! So glad you enjoyed coming along.
ohmy goodness your aeesome those rocks are beautiful great job hope your going to take home
I kept a few and we hid a few!
That beach looks like our here in Victoria B.C. Canada 🇨🇦 🍁 Called Island View Beach. Trailer and tent camping. We go late August as our children do not go back to school until September and they have three different types or pear trees as well as alot of apple trees that grow wild and of course blackberries. 😋😋😋
Wow! That sounds amazing to have all those different fruits! We actually don't have blackberries naturally in Alaska. We do have a lot of huckleberries, blueberries, and raspberries!
That camping trip looked like so much fun! My grandkids are official Jr. Rangers from Yellow National Park 🏞️.
My heart was in my mouth for some of those obstacles don’t know why the boys were pros 👏👏👏👏
Thanks for sharing! It's been fun watching. I was shocked at the price of milk there. It's actually cheaper than milk in Pennsylvania. It was $5.09 on Sunday when I went to buy some.
Beautiful trip, awesome food!
Thank you so much!
Love these videos!
Glad you like them! Thanks for watching!
Awesome video. Riding with the boys was so fun. Sometimes I would go up and down. It was a blast. Corn is 6 for 2.oo. Milk in my area 2.36.
I bet the boys sleep so good after all that biking
They seem to never tire! HAHAHA we all did sleep well when I finally convinced them to go in the trailer.
I just love the murals!!
There are so many good ones! Have you watched our murals video?? ua-cam.com/video/9xzH6VZej6k/v-deo.html
@@ThisAlaskaLife Yes I watched that one alsoI been enjoying them all
@@constancealford2780 oh good! Thank you so much!
@@ThisAlaskaLife Yw
Thanks for posting! I love seeing the different parts of Alaska and camping near a skate park was a great idea!! I also wanted to comment on the price of corn on the cob. Here is Nova Scotia we currently are paying roughly $0.55/cob. We used to be able to get a dozen for $3.00 but are fortunate because it’s all local. Milk however…is $6.29/gallon! Hope you all enjoy the rest of your summer!
It was awesome.
Thank you so much for watching!!
Thank you for this adventure it was so beautiful. Can I please get the recipe for grandpa meal please I want to try it we love making food on fire in South Africa
Milk here in Manitowoc WI at Wal-Mart is $2.96 for a gallon of 2%. I was doing my on line grocery order yesterday and it was 2.89! Hope we get another Costco haul with Everett before he goes to school!
Hopefully a few more trips!! I will miss my shopping buddy!
Wow loved the helmet GoPro bike ride. Thanks boys
I love your vlogs. You capture so much beauty that ppl around the world can see. That may not see in person. I ❤️ that you share your family with us recipes & all kinds of ideas ...the tin foil meals Dad made lok delicious and such a great low cost idea!!! That cake/cobbler looking dish looked amazing! I would have never known you would be able to do that! Can't wait for the next vlog! Oh YT is deleting comments..from other channels..Why idk? Even if they are short and sweet comments. So just incase some1 thinks you erased it personally...no way. It's weird. But I only really watch a few people faithfully...and I have seen it on several thx for sharing Lauren!! Xoxo
PS tell Everett I recently tried PButter on my Pancakes just a bit & it was delicious delicious..no syrup needed ..also may think this is gross but a grilled/campfire hot dog 🌭 w a tiny bit of just peanut butter is delicious! I thought my friend was crazy..then tried it. I like mine slightly charred/burnt..makes them better.
Delicious local Corn on the cob… $7 for 13. Had been $5. Springfield, MO area..
I love watching your videos! You have such a beautiful family. I’m always shocked on your prices on food! 4/5$ on the corn on the Cobb is crazy…I live in Louisiana and it’s 4/1$ here. Our gas right now is 3.79.
Totally enjoyed these videos. Milk where I live is 3.79 so 4.29 is not outrageous. Corn on the cob from a local grower is 6.00 for a bakers dozen. Best store prices is 2 for 1.00, but it is not nearly as good.
Getting corn from a local sounds wonderful!!
Fantastic loved it 😍
Thanks a lot 😊
Hi guys, cool fun going on....I found it interesting that your diesel is more expensive than your gas. Over here in NZ it's the opposite, but I guess as you have to also purchase road user kms if you use diesel it may work out the same? During the summer here in NZ the corn is usually around 5 for $2.00/$3.00 but I'm dreading to think what it's going to be this summer.....how much more expensive will things be in December.... ?
I don't know where prices are going!! We try to buy certain things only when they are in season to save $$$ Thanks for watching, I hope you have a great week.
Que bien lo habéis pasado todos. Tu padre es como MCGIVER jajaja muy apañado jajaja..
Bueno me alegro del buen tiempo que ha hecho ..Aquí en España 2 mazorcas de maiz valen entre 1.20 e. a 2.00e.
1 litro de leche un euro de media.
Los chicos patinan muy bien..un saludo Lauren...💜💜
Thanks for watching. My dad is the best at helping people!
Oh I love the tin foil dinner thing do you think he has a set of recipes he would like to share on your channel that would be cool
Lauren, thanks for taking us with you. So glad that everyone is having a fantastic time. And Lauren, you've got such a great talent in painting rocks. Just a question!, are the rocks for sale?????
That is so sweet of you! We left most of the rocks behind. I only kept the sea otter and my mom kept the wildflowers. I am not selling them but that is kind of a fun idea! Not sure that anyone would want to buy them. LOL Thanks for watching.
Great idea! Painted rocks people would definitely but
10pm and daylight..Wow
I know, crazy!!
Corn in Western NC now is 3 for $1.
The corn on cob is 3/$1.00 here in Boston. And the milk is on par with what I pay.
~ and I wish you sold your rocks! So pretty!!!!
You're not the first to say that about the rocks... I am kind of shocked. I will have to consider it as a side gig!
Good morning I was wondering about your smoothie blender and does it blend ice I see you use it all the time even at the cabin thank you so much for sharing your life I love your videos and I did order that cantaloupe syrup it was pretty good
It can blend ice but I never have ice when I am camping. I will test it out at home and get back to you with a better review!!
What is the average temp for you guys camping ? Seems like your dressed for cool weather
It was in 50’s all week and windy
Question! Is your front windshield cracked? How did it happen?
I thought that aswell noticed on last video?!🇬🇧
Yes! I need to address this in a future video. It is VERY common in Alaska for your windshield to be cracked. Most have them. During the winter they use gravel on the roads for traction. That gravel often shoots up and hits the window. Then when the temperature gets cold and you have your heater on in the car, all of the sudden you get a big crack. We get them fixed but it is only a matter of time before you get another one.
@@ThisAlaskaLife oh i seex🇬🇧🤗🇬🇧
It's just part of being in Alaska
Great vlog. I'm curious, do you all have any Bigfoot activity up there ?
Thanks for watching! Mark told me about a bigfoot story recently that I had never heard. Look up Portlock Alaska if you are interested in that kind of stuff.
@@ThisAlaskaLife that's cool. I love Bigfoot stuff.
We’ve never seen any, but there are well documented stories of strange occurrences in Portlock ALaska. Enough that it basically made the entire village leave and relocate to another area.
@@AlaskaBoys I'm watching it now. There are good & bad Bigfoot, and so are afraid of humans.
@@AlaskaBoys I just got done watching extreme expeditions Northwest and they were up there in the port Chatham area by portlock and daytand they didn't really find anything so but I'm sure it still remains a mystery why over 70 years ago those people left
