Oh Deer!

This year for hunting season we drew on doe tags. We went up to Mackay on Saturday morning and were only out the the truck for about 20 minutes when Todd spotted a deer across the mountain about 250 yards away from us. I didn't even see it till after Todd had shot it and it was rolling down the hill. We didn't see any more deer till later that day but they were to far away. We went home with only one deer.

Todd with his deer on Saturday!

We went back to Mackay yesterday morning to try our luck again to see if I could get my deer. We parked the tuck and went up a different mountain that Todd knew would have deer on it. After a little bit of a hike we were walking down the other side of the mountain and Todd told me to stop and just wait. After waiting for only about two minutes we saw a herd of about 20 deer running out of the trees on the mountain across from us about 400 yards away. I took a shot and hit it in the butt (not a good place to hit them). Todd was afraid that I had gut shot it which would have ruined all the meat. So after a little hike down the mountain and then back up to the deer we were both very happy to find out it was not a gut shot. Give me a break it was my first time every shooting a deer and it was a long ways away! It was however a lot of fun!

Me with my deer!

Smile!

Some of my family has been complaining about never seeing Rylan with his eyes open. I have been trying really hard to get a picture of him smiling but he must not like me enough to smile for me yet.

Kadee is always smiling and she loves getting her picture taken!

Still working on getting Rylan to smile, but hey his eyes are open!

Poor kids, a couple weeks ago I was going threw my Seder chest and found some old dresses that I use to wear, I also found a church outfit that I think Jaylan and Jefferson use to wear, well it just so happened that the clothes fit Kadee and Jackson so I just had to play dress up on them! They sure looked cute in the clothes and are always willing to pose for the camera.

Halloween

Ok, so I know that I am a little behind on the posting but I just have not taken the time to do it! We had a lot of fun this Halloween, Kadee dressed up like Cinderella and Rylan, well I didn't dress him up, he stayed home with a family friend and handed out candy. We went trick or treating with Forrest, Jessica and Jackson. I forgot my camera when we when trick or treating but the night before Jessica and I took the kids to Boo at the Zoo and I got some cute pictures of them there. All and all it was a good night, after hitting the Ucon trunk or treat and then going around our hood, Kadee ended up with about 9 pounds of candy. We will be eating candy till next Halloween!
