Pasayten Wilderness High Adventure

Okay, so I'm going to be a bad wife. A very bad wife. My big crime? Not giving this amazing camping, hiking, fishing post the time it deserves. Might not seem like a big deal, right? Well, sure, not unless your husband lives and breathes these types of expeditions.

This was a serious 50+ miler that K helped to plan and participate in. The guys (two leaders and three teens from our church's youth program) all traveled up North to the Pasayten Wilderness where the hike was to take place.
They geared up and set out ...

Saw some breathtaking sites ...

Set up camp at night and took it down in the morning, just to do the same thing again the next day at a new spot (all while trying not to get eaten by mosquitos) ... 

Hiked, and hiked, and kept hiking (other than for brief stops/naps) ...

Did a little fishing (if I remember right, fishing wasn't the best but they collectively caught a few) ...

Had a great, exhausting, life-changing time, and celebrated with burgers, fries, and shakes ...


And that's all she wrote;).

Baby Joseph

Another little miracle, Joseph Benjamin Dueck , arrived in our family September 5 th , 2010 at 3:23pm. Of course, every mom describes the birth of her children as miraculous--I know, I feel that way about each of mine--but in this case Joseph's healthy arrival really did turn out to be something of a miracle. But before I get into the story, I have some catching up to do since I haven't blogged at all about this pregnancy. So ... Here's me on the first day of school which was just two days before Joseph was born. Since I was taking pictures of the kids, James decided I needed one as well. I'm actually glad he did, because I had been meaning to get a picture of my baby "bump" for days if not weeks and hadn't gotten around to it. Of course, I thought I still had plenty of time to make it happen. And just very quickly, I have to throw out some highlights from this pregnancy which for some reason all have to do with Mae ... Mae telling me (during the first tri...
