Kyle's 1st Jeep

Kyle is growing up fast. He will be 16 years old on March 11th. We have been looking for several months for him a Jeep and we finally found a sweet deal. We lucked out and was able to get this Jeep from one of our neighbors. It's a 1991 Jeep Wrangler with only 49k miles! Mint condition. As you can see, he is grinning ear to ear!

Couples 3D Archery League

Shawn and I started our couples archery league again this year. Our first night was great we both shot really good and I was lucky enough to win the half time shoot. To win you had to shoot a ping pong ball floating in the air above a blow dryer. The first round I shot it and so did another girl so we had a shoot off and I was able to hit it two times in a row! (Shawn was pretty impressed). I won a cute plush blanket and a little pride!!!

Winter on the rocks-St George 2013

 

 

This year was our first year at Winter On The Rocks in St George. Shawn and I  went down with some friends of ours and had a great time. The weather was perfect warm and sunny the first day but did rain some the next day. I did not get as many pictures as I would have liked because I was a big girl this time and stayed in the Jeep most of the time rather than bailing out and walking. We even had a couple in our group get engaged! This will definitely be an annual event for us now!

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!
