Year Numero Dos! :)

After a summer full of traveling everywhere and spending time with friends and family it was time to come back to AUK. This time leaving wasn't as hard or scary, because I had a year under my belt and knew what to expect. I flew up to Anchorage and spent the night in town with the roomie getting all the  food we would need till I go back into town again. 

We have the majority of our staff back this year, but have 3 new hires who have turned out to be not so bad. :) One is from Arkansas while the other two are from Missouri. It's nice to be back in a place where I know people and love my job. 

Last year my kids were no lie a handful and always kept me on my toes with their behavior. This year my kids have great behavior and we are getting to do so much more this year. It's crazy how much can change in a year. They listen and so far we have only had one major outburst. I'll take those odds any day. :)

This year has been more rainy and yucky then last year which I"m not a fan of, but comes with the territory I guess. Becca and I went on a boat ride to Emmonak and got to visit the new AC grocery store. This store is like the Taj Mahal of stores out here... Even comes equipped with an automatic door.  The group of kids jumping in front of it caught me off guard, but then I realized a majority of them have never seen those before especially in a village. It was definitely worth the trip. 

Here are some pictures from my time back here so enjoy. :)
