Hi This Alaska Life, Lauren, Mark & the boys! Lauren you’re a beautiful awesome mother & the boys are so cute! Whittier,Alaska is a beautiful place to go hiking! Another great video!
27:36 "Can somebody put the light on?" 27:55 "Thank you."
Another great video. The tunnel and town were so cool to see. And that family hike looked perfect. What a fun family day you all had. Thanks for sharing this with us 😊
That was absolutely amazing, the scenery was spectacular.I can totally understand why you are out and about so much in the summer months. You lead such a fascinating life and you give us such a wonderful experience visiting different places in you stunning Alaska. Sending love 💞
Did you see this?? CBS did a clip on Whittier, from 4 months ago. It’s was on Sunday Morning edition. https://youtu.be/8iFOBQzO_5A
24:10 what song is that and who sings it? Great video! Mesmerizing is right! So pretty!
AWESOME video! I love this video!! Thanks soo very much!! See u soon! 💕🎃💕
You never know what you gonna see driving the Seward Highway but it’s always spectacular views in every angle. Whittier is a gorgeous town. I went on Phillips 26 glacier cruise and explore around the town a lil. This was two years ago. I’m hoping to return back soon to do a hike. Drive from Anchorage to Whittier is the best
Start at about 11:00 for the Towers.
Would like to see more skatepark tricks.
You are a terrific momma.
If we pay attention to all aspects of life and do some research we will see that a group of very elaborate and sophisticated systems exist for us to live as human beings (please see the following: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biogeochemical_cycle)
These biological, ecological, etc.. systems that we cannot live without are vital for our existence and if even one of them is missing life on this planet is not possible.
All these systems are designed and put together in a very sophisticated way so that we come to this world, live in it for a while, and then we leave it. All that points to the fact that all that exist were made by a Creator (God, please see the following: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yy6kaDaeDT8) and the harmony that exists between these supporting systems (to keep us alive on earth for a while) and how they are linked together point to the fact that there is only one Creator: God.
Some say that our Creator made us and designed us and then put us in this world for no reason, He just made us. Then the following question comes to mind: why didn’t our Creator do all this in His presence so we can see him? If He made us so we live and have fun or just be in harmony with Him, then why He brings us to this world and then takes us away from it? As if we are moved to a theater stage and then we are removed from it. He could have just let us play and have fun in harmony with Him in his presence forever (where we can see Him, so that there are no doubts about his existence), but He didn’t do that. God is letting us notice Him by observing His signs and if we honestly pay attention to what is around us we can notice God’s design in them. At the same time it is also easy to ignore these signs, the decision is ours.
We are created to be tested.
Our creator created death and life to test us to see who is better in conduct (for example who is appreciative, kind, just towards all, humble, truthful, gentle, who believes in our Creator’s revelations that He sent through his messengers, etc.. and vice versa: who is arrogant, cruel, unjust, unappreciative, dishonest, mistreats others, looks down on others, who does not believe in truth when it comes to him/her with clear evidences such as God’s revelations, etc..).
We are given a limited time on earth so we should spend it to gather credit for ourselves and not waste it. Credit meaning while believing in our Creator’s revelations doing good deeds for which we will be rewarded in the afterlife. The opposite is also true, if we disbelieve in God’s revelations and/or do bad deeds we will be chastised for them in the afterlife.
We are free to choose, the right path or the wrong path.
Our Creator expects us to be just so we must give our Creator the value, gratitude, love, obedience, and credit far more than what He created because He is the only one who deserves them and none of His creation deserves them. For example we should not love the creation such as prophets, messengers, angels, famous people, money and fame, our children, power, etc… more than the Creator who brought everything and everyone into existence and has been and will be providing for all his creations and has been maintaining/re-creating all that exist. Our Creator deserves being loved and obeyed far above His creation and that is justice.
67:1 Blessed is He in whose hand is the sovereignty, and Who has power over everything. (1) He who created death and life—to test you—as to which of you is better in conduct. He is the Almighty, the Forgiving.
2:21 O mankind, worship your Lord, who created you and those before you, that you may become righteous – 2:22 [He] who made for you the earth a bed [spread out] and the sky a ceiling and sent down from the sky, rain and brought forth thereby fruits as provision for you. So do not attribute to God equals while you know
21:16-18 We did not create the sky and the earth and what is between them for amusement. (16) If We wanted amusement, We could have found it within Us, were We to do so. (17) In fact, We hurl the truth against falsehood, and it crushes it, so it vanishes. Woe unto you, for what you describe. (18)
What you just read above are verse from "To be recited" (called Quran in Arabic, you can read it here: http://tanzil.net/#trans/en.itani/1:1) which is the direct word of our Creator revealed to Mohammad to guide mankind, to send messages: the message of asking all people to worship (pray to, love and obey) only our Creator – pure monotheism (the only Creator, there are no other gods/ deities besides him) and the message of asking people not to set up (consider equal) partners with our Creator in worship (for example we should not believe that others are equal to our Creator in divinity, ability, wisdom, knowledge, etc.. our Creator is one and has no partners, He is not made of part, persons, He was not born and He does not have offsprings, and we should not pray to anyone except our Creator alone, He is One: pure monotheism), and to warn and give good news, and to teach mankind righteousness, and to correct the wrong ideas that man has invented about our Creator and His revelations.
How do we know if Mohammad was a true prophet of God?
There are many reasons one of the most important reasons is the scientific facts that God revealed in Quran.
It is impossible for a man 1400 years ago (Muhammad) to know what was just discovered recently. Please watch the following youtube videos on some of these scientific facts:
On the big bang
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LY7UGEjET0Y
Shocking facts in Quran (including the expansion of the universe)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ypXqqdPrYQQ

Non-Muslim Scientists who have read the scientific comments in the Quran have commented that the scientific facts brought up in The Quran could not have been known to anyone 1400 years ago when Quran was revealed.
Below are their comments:
https://www.islamic-awareness.org/quran/science/scientists.html
https://www.islam-guide.com/ch1-1-h.htm
Another one of the most important reasons why Quran is a collection of the revealed words of out Creator is the miracle of number19.
19 is mathematically linked to Quranic words, verses, and chapters in The Quran in a way that it is impossible for someone about 1400 years ago with no computer to be able to create such mathematical structure in a whole book such as Quran. Watch the following video on this subject: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pJP129w84tk
Also, what you see in the news that a few are doing in the name of Islam (which means peace and submission to the will of God) does not represent true Islam.
The followers of Islam are instructed to be just and kind to all.
Islam (submission to the will of God) is the continuation of the same message that God has sent through all his messengers (for example Noah, Abraham, Moses, and Jesus) to ask people to worship only Him (pure monotheism) and set up no partners with him in worship and to teach people righteousness and to give them good news and to warn them.
Please look deeply into the message of Islam. It is not what you see in the media
.your so appreciative, that’s nice. Respecting nature.
I can remember the first time I saw this it reminded me of a giant bee’s nest and stills does I can’t rap my mind around the hive idea
