Happy Birthday Dustin and Hillary

Happy Birthday Dustin and Hillary The Cute Kids. We had an amazing Sunday dinner eating our 1st Elk roast that was sweet and tender to celebrate their Birthday's. Kenny made a delicious strawberry cheesecake dessert and they blew out their candles. Dustin turned 28 on September 27th and Hillary turned 24 on September 21st. Their Birthday's combined equaled 52 which is how old I will be this year on my Birthday. Can you believe that 2 of them equals 1 of me. I LOVE YOU both with ALL MY HEART.
Thank you for being You - THE CUTE Kids -

Another Great Cross Country meet for Kenny

Kenny we are soooooooooo proud of you and your amazing strength and commitment to achieving your many high goals especially in Cross Country. We felt very bad to miss your run especially after driving up north to Spanish Fork for 3 plus hours. Honestly we were given the wrong directions and arrived just in time to watch Danny run - I was glad that we could support and be there for him.
Keep raising the bar as YOU ARE THE BEST!

Kenny was glad to see us and our little dog Niki.

Kenny and Danny are 2 GREAT BOYS !

The Elk Bull Hunt at the Paunsaugunt

My "Sweet" Men who I Love with ALL MY HEART!

Micah and his 2 Darling children went with us also on opening day.
.

We are missing Bryce -
.

Way to go My Handsome "Sweetheart" -
Curtis is amazing as he brought the BIG BaBy down with 1 shot from 300 yards away.
Handsome Ryan knows my tender Heart and took me away with everyone to be a human shield so I couldn't see the finish. In my heart I am very grateful for the blessing of this elk meat but it was very hard for me to see such a Grand Majestic Animal down. I grew up being my Dad's boy and was raised on wild meat - elk meat was my favorite as it is really sweet meat.
.

A 5 point Bull Elk - We spent many days scouting on the 4-wheelers, sleeping over night in Ryan's camp trailer and enjoying God's handiwork. The Paunsaugunt was by Bryce Canyon and was the most Beautiful combed land with ponderosa pines everywhere. I loved every minute I was with all my Handsomes especially sitting around the camp fire at night and roasting marshmallow's. It was sooo fun having Strong Dave with us too.

Big "T" I LOVE YOU!

My Family is the BEST!

Havasu Pie

The beginning of a 3 day adventure with a pack that weighed 22lbs. Kenny carried his food, sleeping bag, tent and other necessary items on his back.

The Handiwork of the Lord.

"This is Beautiful."

"The green is an indication that we are getting closer to the water falls."

"I'm looking forward to cooling off."

.

"Look at this green aqua water fall."

"I'm soo glad that I went on this amazing scout trip."
Throughout all of Havasu Pie there was a big flood of water and mud. There was so much mud that as it ran down each fall it would freeze in the air.

"A day I will never forget."
