Purple Haze

Its Here!!!! So it has only been out of the garage twice! I have yet to get a picture of it in the sunlight when it looks so sweet. These pictures were taken at night in the garage when Brett got to sit on it for the first time. I will get some better pictures soon.


Childrens Museum






I took Brett to the Children's Museum in Salt Lake during our vacation. He had such a good time it was amazing. That place is wonderful. We got there early and he had the place to himself for about 30 minutes and then it got a little crowded. I cant even tell you what Brett's favorite thing was because he had a few.

Brett had a blast playing with the balls. Then he went shopping in the store, checked out his groceries and then bagged them. Once they were bagged he put them in the back of a truck and drove them home. He also took a few minutes to go to the barn and feed the horse one of the carrots he just purchased. It pretty much took some major bribing to get him to leave the groceries there. I think he felt like they were really his. He also got to play in the water. Once that was over he went back to the balls.

We ended the day at hot dog on a stick. I thought it was kinda of expensive for a hotdog but Brett was in heaven.

Deer Hunt/Harley

I think everyone who reads this blog is from Utah or has been around deer hunting so I am hopeful I dont offend anyone..... I wont show pictures (mostly because I didnt take any, but also to not offend anyone) Anyway my deer hunt this year was successful. We went down to Fillmore, Utah and on opening morning I saw a few bucks. After passing a few two points by I started thinking it was going to rain that evening and the thought of sleeping in the following morning sounded nice so we saw another 2 point and the rest is history.... One shot! I didnt damage any meat or anything. We are having it processed in fillmore but with the prospect that I am now dedicated to trying to cook every night instead of eating out this will be a nice supply to our meat. Now I just need to get a freezer. So I will keep you updated on how I am doing because I hate to cook but after looking over a few months of budgets and seeing how much we eat out I really need to try it a little more.


So Justins Harley is here!!!!! He got to drive it home from the dealership today. Its is very nice looking. I will get some pictures soon. Its hard to explain the color but its purple and in the sunshine you can see blue, white and red flecks. Its really neat. Wont be able to show that in a pictures but you must believe me on how great it looks in the sun. Justin is excited but is bummed he didnt get more of a chance to ride it today. I am sure tomorrow he will be going for a drive. Just a few more weeks before it gets too cold.

Little People World


So I bought Brett a bunch of little people off Ebay. I thought he needed a few more older toys. Anyway I think I went a little overboard.

Jackson Hole/Yellowstone






We are back from Jackson/Yellowstone and now on our way to deer hunt down in Fish Lake at the cabin! We saw some beautiful wild life at Yellowstone. Thank you to Ryan and Missy for allowing us to stay with them. The condo was absolutely wonderful. It was fun to feel like a millionaire for 3 days.
Yellowstone was great. Its been about 6-7 years since I have been and its amazing to see all the trees growing. Last time I went all the trees had been burnt in a fire they are really thick now. Its nice to see. We pulled into Yellowstone just in time for an Old Faithful Show. Perfect timing. We were a little disappointed at the park because we didn't see any bull elk or moose. But you will see the last picture which was taken from far away back in Jackson there was a group of about 25 bull Elk. They were amazing. We also saw a Moose at Grand Teton National Park. We also got to see a red fox hunting prey and pouncing on it. Overall it was a great trip.

Bully/Upcoming Trip…..

So its official my son is a Bully. I picked him up a little later than usual the other day and he was having dinner with the other kids so I sat down while he ate. One of the older boys said “he hit my sister today”. Then another one said he hit me too. Then they started saying. He is such a bully. Last night I picked him up early and his group was outside on the play ground and he was sitting by the fence in time out for hitting again…… we talk about not hitting all the time and he knows he gets time out which he hates but it doesn’t seem to detour him. He hits when he doesn’t get his way and when he is tired….. If feel terrible about my bully. Any ideas greatly appreciated.

Well I will be off the blog for a week or so. We are headed to Jackson Hole tomorrow on an adults only trip and then back for a few days and off for the deer hunt.

NO WORK FOR 11 DAYS!!!!!!
