The Christmas Story!

I know everyone has seen the Christmas Story. This is my version of the coat scene. Chad likes to take the kids sledding behind the 4-wheeler. So of course they got all bundled up. I knew I had taken it overboard when poor Hayden fell flat, face down on the living room carpet. I knew the poor kid was gonna be warm enough.

My First Hunting Trip

I finally found my USB cable so I could get my pictures off my camera. So here are the pictures I took during my first hunting trip. We did not see one deer. It was super cold and foggy. It was the first snow of the year. There were so many hunters out and I think a combination of the cold weather and too many hunters was the reason we didnt see anything. We did however see 3 moose that day. 2 bull and 1 cow. Chad and I went around a bend and stopped and in front of us was the bull and the cow. They sat there and stared at us. The pics of that did not turn out well, but later we came back and went up another trail and we ran into the bull again. It paced along side of us for quite awhile despite our efforts to speed up and slow down to get in to run off. It was cool but scary, I though to myself we would be in big trouble if that thing charged us.

A day in the life

We have all had the flu bug this past week. As it has slowly made its way through our family, it made me think of the times that were not so miserable. I thought it would be fun to start out this blog with a picture of Ali playing dress up. She did her own make-up.
