Happy Halloween 2008

For Halloween this year Ali was Giselle from the movie Enchanted & Gage was the Headless Horseman.

Mighty Coyote Hunters

Gage & Garrett went coyote hunting & buffalo scouting last saturday.

They didn't see much in the way of buffalo but had fun calling coyotes.

To cute to SpOoK!!

This evening I took Abby to the Fall Festival at the school. She had a really good time and of course I had to take pictures of her all dressed up. I tried really hard to get her to let me paint her face green.... she was not having any part of that. She wanted to look "SPOOKY" but the only thing she let me do is put green eye shadow on her. Just look at her she's so not spooky at all!! LOL She made her daddy proud though, she won all 3 games that involved shooting and she even beat a boy at the balloon competition. She defiantly has my competitive edge... .... is that a bad thing?

Abby's Birthday!!

Flashback Friday

I was kind of trying to organize some photos in my entertainment center & came across these fun ones. Hope you enjoy them. As I find more I will probably have to embarrass more of you.

Gage's hunting days started when he was pretty young too. He's got his calls around his neck, his bb gun, his huntin' dog & his bird he bagged. What more do you need?

Happy Birthday to my Abby!!

Oh my Sweet Abby!!! I sure do love you. Hope I can make this day special! Thanks for always making me laugh. I don't know how you got to be so funny, but Mama thinks your hilarious!! You're sweet as can be and I'm so proud of you!! Happy Birthday!!

Love, Mama

San Diego Baby!

Alicia reminded me today that I had not blogged my San Diego Vacation. I told her that I would work on it tonight...So here we go. I went to San Diego at the end of last month to visit Barry and Cathy Cheskaty. We had a great time. Cathy has been trying to get me to come visit since I was a little girl. Nothing like being 20 years late. One of the things that Cathy has wanted to take me to see forever has been the San Diego Zoo. So we headed there first. Let me tell you, it's a huge zoo. There is even a sky ride like they have a Lagoon. We enjoyed our time there. The next day we wanted to spend that day at the beach....Which we did but not before we went the the Steven Birch Aquarium. That is a neat place! The rest of the week we spent being lazy tourist. Spending afternoon laying on the beach. We spent some time at Linda's beach house in Carlsbad. It really was a very relaxing vacation. One that I greatly needed. I even got to go to the Temple. Man I love the temple and the San Diego temple is simply magical! So Alicia, Here you have it. I'm blogging, although I'm not sure I'm very good at it. Here are a few pictures from my trip. (unfortunately I was such a lazy tourist that I didn't take many pictures.)

This one is for Dad! There was a hummy Bird at the temple. I thought it was awesome!

Proof I was there

Yes that is me by the touching the pier!

Moon Light Jellies believe it or not are completely harmless to humans.

That makes them just that much more beautiful.

Camping

We have a lot of fun on this yearly camping trip the family takes. Here are a few pics from our adventures.
(sorry girls if you don't want pictures of yourself on here then you'll have to be the one behind the camera from now on and then you'll have to start posting, neener neener)

Poor Linda is freezing after being out hunting in the rain.
