I am a 74 year old widow living in Kansas. I lost my hubby of 55 years last year. I fractured two vertebrae in April. I spent some time in the hospital. I am finally getting better. My husband and I loved travel, fishing and the magical beauty of nature. Your videos have kept me entertained during my long recovery. My goal is to do an Alaskan cruise sometime soon. Thank you. Jill Longstaff
I am so sorry for your loss Jill. Heal up and make your Alaska trip happen, it’s worth is.
I love that even your "big" boys can just enjoy this life and not worry about being cool!
I so enjoy watching your family playing in nature. I used to love hiking but back injuries have changed that. So, living vicariously through your videos. Simply fascinated by learning from you and your husband as your children learn so many important life lessons. Thank you for helping me through this week of 100+ degree weather. Sincerely, Sharon Righter
The views from Mark's plane never get old, and it truly is spectacular being up above Alaska. Weston and Bennett are crazy swimming in that weather. Kids living their best life!!
I am always amazed that they want to get in the water!! Fun childhood memories for sure.
@@ThisAlaskaLifeI live in Washington state and while we don’t get a lot of snow,one year it snowed a lot and kids were out in freezing temps. Kids just have no fear I guess😊
I really enjoyed watching your family enjoying each other! Our world needs more of this! Family is so important.💞
I drove 1000 miles in Alaska last week. drove to Whittier, ferried to Valdez. drove to Mcarthy ( rough!) then to Copper River, onto Fairbanks then back to the valley. We have been home 3 days and I am still exhausted!
Oh my goodness! What an adventure!!
This is the way that kids should be raised, you guys are awesome parents!
Your family is the family I wish I could call mine. You and yours please take care. You’re a very special family indeed.
"It's got shrinkage when it get in the boat" 🤣 I so enjoy these cabin videos! You all enjoy your time, rain or shine! I love that! ❤️
Loved this video. So nice of Mark’s dad to share the cabin. It looks very cozy. Love the bunk house! Have you ever seen a bear while using the outhouse? What awesome parents you are. The boys will have wonderful memories of their growing up years!
I have thankfully never seen a bear near the cabin. I have seen a few down the beach a long ways and the minute they see us or catch our scent they high tail it the other way.
Nothing better than seeing kids being kids!!
What an amazing family. It is so nice to see a family like yours being the stewards of America’s last frontier. You and your husband are the best parents. I am in awe of your amazing life and how all of you respect and utilize every aspect of it.
Thank you so much! We are happy to share it with you.
It's always a treat seeing your adventures at the cabin! The time that you spend together as a family without distractions is so wonderful!
What a fun time, thanks for taking us along! great that the grandparents are also able to be there with the family, so many memories ❤
We love spending time with our grandparents. Special times for sure!
It's the memories that makes it all worth it!! And spending time with Grandparents is extra special. Bring on summer!!
Yes, it was so nice to spend extra time with Family!
Love the portions of the videos where Mark is flying the plane. It’s like you are right there!
My son and his wife were on a cruise to Alaska. He was impressed with all of the eagle congregations. This year they are off to Europe. They did like Alaska.
Nice for the kids to get away after school is out. Bonding at the cabin despite the weather.
Another great time spent with you all at the cabin !! Not the best weather , but time spent together is wonderful!! Thank You for taking us along !! Blessings to you all.
What a place to have at your disposal, stunning views from the beach. Boys look like thry really appreciate the experiences and the time spent with each other.
Despite the cold, rainy weather it looks like y’all had an amazing time! Loved coming along with y’all
Hunter is such a good fishermen🎣🐠🐡🐟
Even though the weather didn’t cooperate with you guys…. It’s still such a magical place to have - you guys a truly blessed!
We are so grateful to spend our time here!
I love that you find ways to reuse things that have washed ashore! It's help the environment & creates fun for the family!
Hi y’all l love ur family the way u use raspberries & garden veggies. A clean living no alcohol. Many years ago l did have a beer after l washed my car. Also l decided not to drink. I take pain meds & l think it’s the best way to live. It makes life simple. Keep on living a wonderful life u & Mark r setting the bar high with great examples of how to live a clean life. Enjoy u travels & life in Alaska. It reminds me how my family did road trips & camping in our tent trailer that my Dad built & ordered canvas to fit. Great momories from childhood. ❤B. Mountain, Canada
I envy the memories you are making…the beautiful nature and experiences you are affording your children.
You are so kind. Thank you for watching.
The adventures your family have never gets old. ❤
Prayers for you Jill Longstaff! 💙 nurse Judi in Scottsdale AZ and Eucharistic Minister 🙏🏻 Prayers for all of you. Thank you for your vids, & channel 🙏🏻 ❤️ ❤❤❤
Those are some true alaskan kids jumping right on into that freezing water! Enjoyed your experiences in this magical place. you are a terrific mother and your husband is a really good dad.
As a mom of 3 boys I can promise you my boys would absolutely love you cabin adventures! What a slice of heaven!
This is a great wholesome family - Thank you for sharing with all of us !
Thanks for watching!
I love the way you are raising your boys. You treat them like young men. They will grew up to make you very proud parents. I k ow you are proud of them already. Great video.
Loved your family time the weather didn’t bother y’all at all. I love how Mark explains everything to the kids and gets them to try different things he’s an amazing dad. Missed Luna. Love 💕 y’all! Safe travels.
Love rainy days at the beach. Not so much with the cold, but then there's that awesome fire. Glad you all had such fun!!
Thanks so much! We just do our best to make the most of our time, no matter the weather.
Good Afternoon Hamm Family ❤️
Still here. Still waiting for the rain 🌧️
Yay. I made it to the cabin video 😁
Weather is a fickle beast, especially when flying. Safety first. It's amazing how differently the sky looks: airport vs cabin. I'm so happy Mark and the boys made it safely. I've had a few scary flights: large and small planes. l love flying, but when those wheels touch down, my heart rejoices 🛩️
Bennett, aka, the Lumberjack 🪓
That swing looks like so much fun. Hunter is enjoying it. It took me a moment to realize Mark was on the rope bridge in the background. Too funny. The boys are braver than me with that polar plunge. Brrrr 🥶
I can't eat sculpin, but that flounder looks tasty - pan fry it in butter, garlic, lemon and dill, some coarse pepper, perhaps some capers... Yum 😋
Thank you for feeding the Eagles. A pleasant sight - the Eagles, not the carnage 🦅
Mark, are flounder easy to dress? It's been a while, but I'm used to dressing bass, snapper, trout and salmon 🐟
Hi Grandpa 🙋🏼♀️
Game nights/days are so much fun 🎲
Poor Everett. Don't worry the sun will be back ☀️
Loved the cabin and surrounding area tour. Quaint lil cabins are nice, especially when remote and the scenery is beautiful... rain or shine. The look on Hunter's face was priceless. Like, "seriously Mom. I'm having my switch time" 🎮
That stew looks yummy 😋
Bennett is having way too much fun 🏄🏼
I miss fishing with my Dad. Some of my best memories of him. Enjoy every moment 🥺
Kelp Greenling or Seatrout, now that's a fish I can eat: butter, garlic, shallots, cracked tri-color peppercorns and lemon... makes my mouth water 🤤
Awesome waterfall. Can I just climb up on the rock and be showered upon... bliss 💦
Love the rocky beaches and watching the guys collect treasures to bring back to the cabin 🏖️
Hunter on the ride back, Hoodie Addition:
Wind 1
Hunter 0
Cool treasures: the pulley (?), the sponge and Mr Crab 🦀
Fish Tacos are delicious 🌮
When Bennett almost put the cast iron in the soapy water, my anxiety sky-rocketed... okay, perhaps that's a little dramatic, but still... yikes 😬
The Lumberjack has returned with his Apprentice. So sweet watching the older boys teaching the younger boys 🪵
Hunter, you're making me nervous teetering on that rope... I don't think that bouy will save you. I see you've repurposed your treasures for y'all's private playground. Good job. Oh my, now Bennett's doing it 😳
I do love seeing that the boys, including Mark, are having fun... smiles all around, including me 😁
Beach bonfire: an epic ending to a great trip, despite the weather. Its still a great week of adventures and fond memories 🤗
Three videos down 🎥
Have a great evening and weekend. Yah's Blessings ❤️
Flounder are pretty easy to clean. The smaller ones can be tricky because the cuts you make are basically the same on a small one as a large one, so it's easier to clean the larger ones as you don't have to make such small cuts along the spine. Thanks for watching and commenting :)
@@markhamm2135 , thank you for responding. I'll take note. You're welcome. Y'all are great to watch. Take care 🙂
Love your boys' adventurous appetites. So great, and honestly being willing to try new and unique foods is an awesome ability to have.
I’m am very thankful for it!
Thx so much for taking us along on your delightful family adventures! What awesome memories have been made for your family. Blessings. Susan
Our pleasure! Thank you so much for watching, we are so grateful.
The best clams I ever ate was when I ate them with Bennett. He told me not to look at them. Just put it in your mouth. "Eat the whole thing". Truth.
Nice glasses Everette. "I don't remember what the sun looks like"😅
The rope course is made from things we found. *plus hundreds of dollars of hardware. I am bring another few hundred$ for the zipline next month. Woot!
That is a good side note, all the hardware you use to make it so awesome. We’re excited for more creations!
It is just amazing what can be 're-purposed' and used for a mini-boot camp for the boys!! Living off the land and family time is what life is all about!💙Your boys will treasure these times together for years to come😊
I agree, I hope they look back and cherish these family times!
Love the recycle and reuse of the bouys . The waterfall was stunning. Great video..thanks all
Good afternoon Lauren and Mark and family and thank you for sharing your beautiful day❤
Wonderfull souvenirs for your family 😊 earing Everett laughing is so cute!🥰
It's so nice to see how close your family is. I love how you both are so caring when teaching your boys. I also like your Costco videos. Its interesting to hear the prices. Stay safe and happy.
"This is better than the smores!" Experiences of a lifetime.
They have a good time!
What a fun, enjoyable get away! Love the cabin and the upgrades. That waterfall Mark showed us was so beautiful and I really enjoyed the excitement in his voice when he found another buoy! Thanks for sharing..always a joy to see you all having fun! 🏚🐠🌊
Oh wow, what an expedition. I hope it's a lovely time at the cabin, it looks amazing there
It really is!
Wow that's a wonderful place to be looking out at the ocean 🌊🌊
What a fantastic family you are. Giving the boys a fantastic childhood 😊
More precious memories thank you for sharing
So much fun, even in the cold !! I love to watch the boys playing outside, building and exploring!! Gosh they sure do have fun !! You will have to bring some of your freeze dried meals, just in case!! Love your family adventures!! Glad Mark and the boys finally made it !!🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️❤️😀😀
What beautiful memories your boys will have of their childhood
Mark is a fantastic Dad! 😀
Great educational video. Nice to see so many memories being made. Nice to see Mark spending time, and making memories with his dad. Great fishing and beautiful scenic views.
In Germany we just had the first rain after 20 days of 30°C . I kind of miss the drizzly, cozy weather.
Wow, nice and cozy although the weather wasn't so great. Spending time with family and making memories is what counts. Boys really enjoyed themselves. Here, families camp out on beaches while net fishing or spear fishing. Thanks for sharing your cabin adventure. Hafa adai and love from the island of Guam 🌴❤🌴
So peaceful !! Good to refresh your spirit, before go back. Enjoy your wholesome videos.
They are indeed Alaska boys!!! Who in their right mind would want to sea dip l after you saying all the clothes you had put on because it’s cold 😂.
Glad Mark and the boys made it to you. Nice to have some fresh fish albeit not your preferred fish. The eagles certainly were not fussy about the breed of fish. That waterfall was just beautiful. It might not have been all the you wanted weather wise but you guys still had a ball. You managed to get some fish ( small but edible). It seemed to me that your break away was wonderful, family love and happiness is all you need. Stay blessed ❤
I always enjoy watching your adventures at the cabin every summer 😍
Your channel is one of my favorites for so many reasons! Love you guys!
The best places to relax always have some work involved to make it happen. It seems like you all had some challenges this first trip, but you all persevered! Adventures!!
Good morning outside in the rain walking lucky you sleepover our hope you're having fun love you all have a blessed day
So nice to see kids having good old fashioned fun.
It really is!
I love your videos. They are so detailed and beautiful. I feel like I'm in Alaska with you. I have a daughter with severe autism and intellectual disability so, it is difficult to go anywhere. Your videos, though, make me feel like I'm there. I've always wanted to go to Alaska, and you just make me want it more. My daughter loves watching your videos with me (especially your cruise videos) so she may be ok with an Alaskan vacation in the future. We are in western Pennsylvania and it is so hot here. I'm not a hot weather kind of girl. I would love to be in a cooler climate. Thank you for sharing all of your wonderful videos. ❤
What a great family you have! I just love coming along on your shopping trips and travel adventures.
That looks like a blast!!! 😊
It was!
We saw all your recent AK Cruise vlogs and thought you all did such a fun and fantastic trip…so we subscribed. Then came upon this Vlog…WOWIE! Talk about folks being the real deal. You and Mark and your handsome family are the real deal! Watching your children play and family interaction was reminiscent of life decades ago. Keeping themselves occupied, outside til called in and chores? What? We watched with delight and at the end said to each other those were the days.
Your boys may be the future Constructors with environment being key, Creators with inventions beyond our minds eye, Caregivers with absolute love and devotion and Culinary experts fending from land and sea.
Impactful and Super Vlog. Thank You for hope.❤️
So glad you found us! Thanks for sticking around and seeing our life here in Alaska. We are grateful to have you here and hope you enjoy many adventures to come.
I would have to pitch up next to the loo as I'm in there sometimes hourly!
😊thanks taking us allong its was wonderful, the nature is so beautyfull❤
We went to Seldovia! Took the first ferry of the season. Not much open but found some sea glass and enjoyed a walk around the unique little town.
Sleepy town early in the season. Glad you had a nice little visit!
Doesn’t matter the weather just great to have family time. Enjoy. Take care✌️🇺🇸❤️
I think that gave a realistic demonstration of Alaska late spring/early summer weather.
This video really made me teary eyed. Your kids have grown so much since Ive been watching This Alaska Life. Thank you both for the privilege of being able to see such a loving, caring & fun family!
I want to spend a day on the beach with the waterfall. After I explore it, I would spend the rest of the time reading & in worship. What an awesome place!!!
The fishing trip with Grandpa was pretty cool, I miss fishing, but I know Alaska would be too cold for me!!!
Great video, Lauren, I loved it! ❤️
I will be praying for Safe Travels for the, Hamm Family, Land, Sea, & Sky! 🙏
What lovely, informative videos you share. Your boys will cherish this epic growing up time. They are blessed
I absolutely love these videos. GREAT VIDEO!!!
Glad you like them!
Love you enjoy being back with the family
I am great at sudoku. If the boys need tips. I be glad to help.
I've always wonder if you could eat the skulpen as everyone I see throws them back. good to see someone eat it
Enjoyed your camping adventure. We have been to Alaska twice on cruise ships. Next May our first trip to Seward, Anchorage and riding trains. Thanks for your stories of life in Alaska
We love Seward, are there right now! You will have an amazing trip!
Yipee! Cabin fever🇬🇧😍❤
Another wonderful video. Thank you for sharing. It’s amazing how fast children grow these boys change every three months.
loved this video.your boys are certainly having lots of fun. i love how your boys are willing to try everything.
Lots of exposure to interesting things to eat, there is also something special about food at the cabin, fresh out of the ocean.
The way a vacation should be 😊
It really is the best!
Wonderful video Lauren, so full of love and adventure xx
Thank you so much! We really have a good time as a family at the cabin.
I love the rope course and swings. They look sooo much fun💜
They really make it so much fun! Encourages us to be outside even more.
Looks like some Amazing family time! Thanks for another great video
Love the rustic living!
I love all the scenery in Alaska., And of course I love love luna too
It really is so beautiful!
I'm envious I grew up going on vacation in canada at my grandmother's cabin with no electricity or anything you took your showers in the lake and used the outhouse for bathroom so its alo TV like how you guys do it. I miss that so much. I learned alot from going up there and catching fish cleaning them and having it for dinner my grandmother taught me alot
Always wonderful to see your family having fun. Such a tight knit family. Very nice! Albert and Maria👍
Your Alaska life is amazing Have a great stay at the cabin
Oh my gosh I bet that water was freezing 🥶
It is cold but it never stops my kids!
Bennett, “ this is Alaska” lol lol. He’s repeating what you said in the cruise but with his own flare. I bust out giggles.
"I forgot what the sun 🌞 looks like" 🤣🤣🤣
I was wondering is the wood on the cabin treated esp with Alaska weather Lauren . Iam so glad Mark nd kids made it xxx
Thanks for your tour of the cabin and explaining the water system, cooking procedures, and the solar batteries. Reminds me of our old roughing it tent camping days. A nice place to escape to.
Love your family adventures 😊
The bald eagle on the beach was amazing!
Good for Everett, trying all kinds of new things.
Beautiful family memories are being made. May God continue to bless and direct your paths.
Been wanting to visit Alaska for a long time! My grandma lived in Juno for few months her first marriage her husband was stationed there she loved it
