2011 Deer Hunt

Once again, I went to Grouse Creek with my Mom and Dad and went hunting! I seriously love this time spent with my Dad, because it's our time to do what we love together! He's definitley instilled a love for this sport in my heart, and I wouldn't miss it for anything! And that means my sweet husband gets to stay home with the kiddos while I go hunt! Thanks hun! The fun thing about this deer is I spotted him all 3 times as we had to chase him accross two mountain sides! So although my dad is the greatest guide in the world, I found my own kill!

And here's my Dad doing the dirty job! I do know one thing, if I had to gut the thing, I wouldn't do it anymore! So Thank you Dad!!!!

So I know I post quite a bit about autism, but can you blame me? It's my life. And I have a real hard time expressing the way I feel about autism. But today I came across a blog from a women that has a child with Down Sydrome, and a child with Autism. She has an amazing blog. She posted "Today I'm Greatful for Autism" And I felt exactly the way she expressed herself, and I just ugly cried to myself for five minutes then decided to post her post on my blog. Just replace the name Casey with Bridger and it comepletely fits! Click HERE

Cord Turned 7

Cord is getting soooo old! Seven Years old, First Grade, Dirt Biking, Going on vacations with out me?!?!?!? Life sure is whizzing by! Cord had a great birthday this year, as always! Just a family party this year though. He kept saying "my birthdays not over until I have a party with my friends" He didn't get it that we only do friend parties every other year! His only request was to have Ice cream sandwiches for his birthday and he got it, but I had to make a cake for my benefit!

He got this helmet last year for his birthday, and this year he was begging for the whole gear, so he got a jersey and pants for his birthday! And he didn't waste any time to wear that jersey to school to show it off it everyone!

He sure has lots of family that loves him and want to spend time with him on his special Day! Aunt Brenda & Abbie and Grandma Cole.

Uncle Dean and daddy.

Hudson, Baylee & Avery.

One last Time...

So we had a ball at the property for our last time of the year! We absolutely love coming here, our boys just play, we relax, and everyone's happy (except come bedtime and I don't get an ounce of sleep) but set that aside, and all is good! Cord and the big boys playing ball. Bridger loves his slide...

Hudson loves his swing...

Chris and I enjoying each other because our kids are actually off playing and having fun....

And the whole family all in one shot! Now that doesn't happen verry often!

My Birthday...

I had a wonderful birthday this year! First of all, I had all the people I love come and see me! What more can you ask for? Well..... I actually did love the gift I got as well! And I did want it... I finally got my Kitchen Aid, and I was sooooooo excited! Especially with all this baking I've been doing lately, it has come at the perfect time! Here is my lovely mom and sister Brenda. My sweet mother in law and SIL Abbie.
