The Grandparents are Amazing 😻

[@tammyrommel712]

I believe this is my favorite video you’ve done so far. Beautiful place you live in.

[@DonnaAnders-w4d]

Mark I can’t tell you how much I enjoyed your video. You are such a good patient Dad and teach your boys so much, they are going to know how to do so many things that will help them as adults. I felt so sorry for all of you as you were so cold 🥶 in the freezing ride over and then the freezing rain ☔️ so glad you had a warm tent ⛺️ The scenery was breathtaking, the boys will never forget this special experience and the memories made with your family. Those glaciers, words can’t describe. Great video Mark really, really nice. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️❤️❤️

[@karenlord600]

Mark is such an amazing Dad, loving, caring and a great teacher!

100%.

[@sarahekstrom8510]

This is Mark’s sister. Prince William sound has been such a special place to me since I started going there as a teen. I was thrilled to finally come up with a plan to take my kids there. A couple comments. The glaciers are on the order of 10,00 years old, but the actual ice is a couple hundred years old. The ice is constantly (slowly) moving through. Secondly, the glacial ice bergs are only 10% above water because they are so dense.

[@brilliantbutblue]

Thank you for letting us know. It is a special place indeed. 😊

[@DragonQueenx1]

Thank you Sarah for talking with us. I very much enjoy Lauren and Mark's channel. I have to tell the Hamm family helped me survive covid as a Nurse and as a pt with Meningitis in 2022. I so enjoy the adventures and the love. I hope to see you again in the future.

[@Joy-qw3wm]

Wow ,thankyou for sharing this with us.I always feel lucky to have been brought up near the sea ,though we`re a tiny seaside town in the South of England.This was something else and your children will have so many special memories too.We are so lucky with the nature around us ,which we often take for granted.SO much beauty and so peaceful.So glad your enjoyed your trip with your family.x

[@ladgers]

Hi. First off I love watching your family's adventures. I get excited like I'm there 😊. I have a question though. When the squid was biting, Bennett Mark's voice got kind of alarmed. Could it have caused permanent damage to him if they didn't get it off really fast?

[@lindacox8156]

Mark - you are the BEST dad- your kids are BLESSED to call you Dad‼️

[@brylenesells7842]

It is so wonderful to watch Mark teach his sons to become men. Watching your family grow is a blessing, thank you for sharing with us. May God cover you all with his grace and glory. XOXO

[@MrZzToOoFlyY]

You sound ridiculous, hunting and camping, fishing etc can be for anyone. It doesn’t make any one more or less manly. He is bonding and teaching his kids and its wonderful but it doesn’t have anything to do with masculinity

[@brylenesells7842]

​Bless your soul, aren't you sweet

[@stacynissley7336]

What a great experience for your boys! I would have given anything to have a dad like you! Thanks for sharing!

[@tracybeasley6682]

I've got to say Mark your Mom is one tough cookie!! I don't think I could be out there doing what she's doing and I'm 51 yes old!! Thank you for taking us on your adventure ✨️ I loved learning about the glaciers and oh my gosh when the squid was biting Bennett , and watching you all get those big shrimp I just loved it!! ❤

[@markhamm2135]

She is a great lady and we've learned so much from her. She loves being outdoors and taught us so much by example and deed over her lifetime.

[@cathy8070]

Wholeheartedly agree 😊🇨🇦

[@lindacox8156]

The waterfall was AWESOME‼️👍😊 You are so right Mark - they are a lucky bunch of kids- seeing and learning soooo much‼️👍😊Grandma and Grandpa - you both are AWESOME to go along on this adventure to help out‼️👍😊

[@lindacox8156]

How FUN to get to walk on the glacier and throw snowballs‼️😊👍

[@annemariewalker6334]

Absolutely stunning scenery!! What wonderful memories you are making for your boys. Family is everything! Thanks for sharing.

[@cynthiaoconnor7185]

I love the enthusiasm of Mark and the boys when they pulled up the shrimp pot! It is so great to see all of the family pulling together to fish for food. Your boys will have unbelievable memories.

[@pamelawaters]

Wow! I enjoyed this adventure so much! I've never fished for squid so that was pretty amazing to watch! The ice bergs and waterfalls were so beautiful! Thanks for the fun video guys..Mark you are a super cool dad that's for sure! 💚💙💜

[@Ann-i8u6q]

What a beautiful ❤enviouble life you live.Beautiful way to bring up children.❤ South Wales UK.x

[@kristybates657]

Mark, you did a fabulous job filming. I would so love to go on a rustic trip like you took the boys on. That was so cool. I wouldn't even know how to cook squid. Down here in Texas we do fried and thats about it. Ya'll should do a how to cook Alaskan seafood video. Man this type of fishing and kayaking is on my bucket list. I don't want to go with some touristy company.

[@Tauranasaurus]

Wow what a spectacular video, your kids are so lucky to experience everything that Alaska has to offer. Eating fresh shrimp and squid and catching the abundant fish in the lakes and just being one with the land, I wish I could show my Granddaughters even a 1/4 of the beauty of Alaska.

[@EdithCrum]

Love this video! We went on a cruise to see the glaciers in Alaska but nothing like this! Seeing glaciers up close! So beautiful 😍!

[@Livinglifeoutsidethebox]

Wow! What a great adventure we all went on thanks to Mark and the boys.

[@janetmayer877]

I wish there was more than a thumbs up to click. Your family is AMAZING! Did Mark learn the skills from his parents? Your children are blessed beyond words. Thanks for sharing,

[@pattymax]

What an awesome trip! Mark you are such a great Dad. I really enjoyed this video 😊

[@michelleherd1389]

Wowowoowowoow- this was an amazing adventure- thank you for letting us experience it with you. I am blown away!!!

[@cynram355]

I LOVE that Bennett was more EXCITED while being bitten by the squid than scared or panicked!😄AND, I really love that your kiddos are out EXPERIENCING life, rather than watching videos on their cell phones 24/7. I was also raised this way and I really believe it set me up for success in life in so many ways. Thank you for this super entertaining video! Keep them coming, Mark and boys!

[@lisal9282]

[@mary-lynnberti7081]

I just got back today from camping and kayaking at beautiful Tulabi Falls in Nopiming provincial park in Manitoba. I have made many good meals enjoyed outside on our own Coleman stove, which is just like yours. A wedding gift from 20 years ago....my absolute favourite way to cook. I hope to still be outside enjoying the beauty of nature when I am your Mom's age. What an inspiration!

[@donnahowarth4524]

What an amazing adventure. Thank you for sharing!

Everything in my dream I was able to capture while watching your video! Thank you so much!

[@rhondarogers1946]

Mark I have to say your parents are phenomenal, hardy , hardworking Alaskans. I couldn’t do what they do and I’m 52, I wish I had my health so that I could come to Alaska and be just like them life loving adventurous humans who have lived a wonderful life full of adventures & in every weather. Please tell your parents that they have a woman who’s parents have passed away who’s in Glasgow who wishes she was in Alaska with them. Sweet Memories made and I know this won’t be the first time that I watch this video just to see your parents and all the kids having an absolute blast.
