HaPpY HaLloWeEn!

We had a fun night for Halloween, Hazen went trick-or-treating with his cousins and then we headed up to Jilynn's house for some dinner and a party! Hazen decided he wanted to be a cowboy... no surprise there! So he wore his new chaps, vest, and boots that he got for his birthday. It was a fun night! We missed Ryan.... he was in Missouri, hunting whitetails for a week, so he missed out on all the fun!

My cute little cowboy! This was the best picture I could get..... he was not the happiest camper that night!

All the "big kids" in their costumes.

Paige was an angel! What a cutie!

Brooklyn made a super cute carebear!

This was how he was the whole time we were trick-or-treating.... pretty cranky!

~Deer Hunt 2009~

The one hunt I go on every year is the rifle deer hunt. I always have a tag, and I am usually the only one with a tag since Ryan does the bowhunt thing. It is always a fun day to look forward to. This year, my dad, Devan, Ryan and I went to Strawberry for opening day, but didn't see anything worth shooting... (I did pass on a small buck first thing in the morning). So we headed home. Ryan, Devan and I went later in the week and I got lucky enough to find this buck! He is a 3x4. I am happy with him! It has been a successful year for hunting for me!

HaPpY BiRtHdaY HaZeN!!!

Hazen turned 3 on October 17..... I know I am a few weeks behind, but life has been a little crazy for us! He had croup (again) over his birthday so we had to cancel the first birthday party :( He was feeling better a couple days later, so we had his party with Ryan's family, and of course he got spoiled! He had a lot of fun and got lots of fun things from everyone. We had his birthday party with my family a few days later when everyone could come, and once again he got spoiled! He had a fun birthday week. I can't believe he is 3 already! He brings so much joy to our family. I am so thankful to have him in our home and that he chose Ryan and I for his parents. He is such a funny little guy with such an amazing imagination. He has no limits! He is such a blessing in our lives and we love him SO much!
