Happy New Year 2012

We had a great night at the Brigham Bowmen New Years Eve Party. We had a fun shoot, water bottle race and then played black jack all with our bows. It was a fun way to ring in the new year as a family!

Christmas 2012

Kyle made this sign at school for Shawn.

We had another awesome Christmas. They boys sure did get spoiled. Kyle got a shot gun, chronograph, gun safe and a bunch of hunting stuff. Kolt got a new bow, binoculars, gun safe and more archery stuff. Shawn got a new tool chest, archery stuff and jeep stuff. As for me I got a super cute pink bow, TV, ninja mixer, boots, archery stuff and jewelry. We had lots of fun spending time with family!

NFR Las Vegas 2012

One of my favorite places to shop! This place is a cowgirls dream come true!

 

Tuf Cooper brought George Strait up on stage at the 1st round Buckle ceremony.

Angie Burton- former Miss Rodeo Ogden has carried the American flag at the NFR for several years now.

Another great year at the NFR. Las Vegas. It's always exciting to watch and cheer on our Utah Cowboys & Cowgirl. The NFR pays over 6 million dollars to the contestants. Each round can earn you $18,000.00 with 10 rounds I would say that's a pretty good chunk of change. So far the Utah boys have done pretty good. Hopefully we will be able to call one of our own a world champ!

Christmas Tree Adventure

 

Shawn thought it would be fun for us to go and cut down our own Christmas tree this year. We started out with a yummy breakfast at Moore's Cafe in Perry then we headed just outside of Yost for our Christmas tree adventure. We had to drive for quite a while until we found the perfect one. There she was glowing just like the tree on Christmas vacation!!! We did pretty good other than we had to cut off about 2 1/2 feet to get her to fit the house! Decorated her up and she now completes our Christmas Decor Ü

Christmas tree adventure-$100.00 fuel -$47.00 breakfast -$5.00 tree permit-The memories we created for a lifetime=Priceless

Kyle got a Rooster

Kyle finally bagged a Rooster! The boys have been out pheasant hunting on the weekends and every night after school, pheasants are hard to come by these days and all his hard work finally paid off. He was excited to get this nice big one in Plain City!

Kolt's First Deer 2012

Kolt has been hunting long and hard this fall and it finally paid off! They were just about to head for home when he spotted this buck about 200 yards away. One shot and that was all she wrote. He was really happy that he got to fill his first deer tag. Way to go Kolt!

CAUTION....Men At Work

It's been a long hard week for poor old Shawn- 

It's not an easy task to get all the horses ready for the Wyoming Elk Hunt!

Goose Jerky Anyone?

Good to know my boys will eat just about anything! Kyle shot a goose yesterday and before you know it he was in the kitchen making him up a batch of marinate so he could make goose jerky. They make duck jerky all the time and love it so he thought why not try goose. We look like a bunch of rednecks with the smoker out on the front porch! 

Gun Powder & Lead

Opening day of the Muzzle loader hunt and Kyle has already tagged his buck! Sent them off to the woods with a little gun powder and lead and they come home with a dead deer strapped to the spare tire of the Jeep- That's what I call a bunch of REDNECKS!!!

Opening Day Youth Duck Hunt

Kolt was excited to head out opening day of the duck hunt. He had a great time and was able to get two ducks first thing in the morning!
