Well, sorry i dont post that much lately. i have been busy! Little updae- friday drove to anchorage, and picked up Kori and we climbed these really fun climbs on the turnagain arm. man i love lead climbing. it is a fun challenge. the next day we ran this 5K in girdwood, which was really fun and i think i got like 22 mins, whichs beats my best time. yahoo! it was hard, i ran hard. kori did well too, it was her first and she got like, 20 min i think. anyways then we went back that afternoon for the Forest Fair, which is this hippie fair and i loved it. i wish i lived in girdwood. its my kind of place. funny little town full of chacos and dreads and hippie skirts.
I took the fam down the kenai rafting, which as michelle sais was a lot longer than i anticipated. but i got to check out the rapids which were fun even though i hit them a little sideways and got everyone wet...hah, whoops.
other than that, just been working and playing, trying to see that new pirrates movie but its always sold out GRR. this town isnt THAT big is it??frustrating.
Also, i heard today that sven was in a climbing accident, and he fell and broke his ankle really bad. he couldnt get out of the mountains, so he had to spend the night out there while his friend went for help and they helicoptered him to jackson. And now he has to go to salt lake for surgery. scary. I havent talked to him, just his family, but thats all i know. i dont know how it happened, but it makes me think, wow. things CAN happen to us. what if that call had been telling me that he died or somthing? Its just scary to think how easily things can go wrong and we could lose people so fast. So everyone just be careful out there okay? i dont need to lose friends right now...well i have to go get ready to work some more...sorry this was kind of long. one dya i will put more pics on here. love you all! pray for poor sven!

Poor Sven, I hope he gets better. You should send him a care package with stuff to do while he's in bed. That must have been really scary. Anyhoo, sounds like y'all are having a BLAST as usual.
Later,

wow... makes me think twice about climbing again. i mean we were pretty safe doing what we were, but sven is like very experienced. i hope he is allright, that is scary.
Hey Mare,
Thanks for the updates, finally got take some time and read yer blog. Sounds fun, but I have a query, did cousin Sven get a blessing? And if he did which name did the preisthood servant use, his personally assigned name or his name whereby he is to be known throughout the kingdom and on the records of the church? Do you think his Father would know his other name? But seriously, how is he doing, and what happened?
Please be careful "out there", it can be jungle at times!!!
Saw the pics of everyone, wish I was there to get wet with ya'll, I guess mom and tom and ashelle did okay at China Poot Bay resort and canery last night, enjoy the fruits of their laborers,go fishing with tom for kings some night, he would like to do that with you.
love dad.
hey i found news stories about the accident. anyways, i know he'll be alright. afterall he's SVEN the MOUNTAIN MAN!
so i have a ton of homework and i need to stop reading blogs now. later
Hey Mary!
I was wondering what happened to you! Wild about sven. Pretty intense stuff for just a broken ankle eh? I did the same thing in dance class. My story's not near as good. Welp, I'm perpetually envious of you, and I dig your new hair.
Hey you. . .It's ang. I too heard about Sven. Made me think the same thing as you-- that we're not invincible after all. . . but it must have been a wicked bad broken ankle for surgery! Well, as you have probably supposed. . .I'M BACK!! It's awkward and I feel like I'm fishing for my place. My blogs back up. Love ya and I want to come visit you in Alaska! When are you done?
