October

We had a lot of fun in October. Its been busy so I haven't had time to share. We started out the month hunting. We left Breckston with family and headed up to our hunting spot. We should've had at least 1 elk and 2 bucks, but we ended up with 1 buck. Tyler shot a 4 point. He was a nice buck.

When we came home we took Breckston to the Zoo. Breckston loves animals. We also went to the Cheesecake Factory and Cabelas. It was a fun date with Breckston.

We went with my dad and Jeannie up to Willard and the kids played in a little maze at one of the fruit stands. We had the kids pick out a pumpkin. We came back to my dads and the kids painted the pumpkins. They were all messy. Kaiden was so cute he just wanted to eat it. Breckston had Tyler help him with his pumpkin. I think that the adult boys had just as much fun or more fun painting the pumpkins. We went over to the Halls house and carved pumpkins. We had a fun Halloween with family.

Update

Well its been a while so I figured I'd update:

• We went camping all over the North Slope of the Uintas about 7 times including last weekends Labor Day trip
• We caught to many fish to count Tyler learned how to fillet them so they are easier to eat
• Our tent zipper broke so we had to borrow a tent for a trip or two
• We bought a tent trailer to replace our tent
• Tyler and I drew out on Deseret cow elk tags which means we have 6 tags all together for elk and deer
• Tyler had a bet with some guys he works with to loose weight by Oct 1. Tyler has lost a total of 34.5lbs so far. He met his goal of 30lbs already
• BRECKSTON is just growing up!!! He is starting to talk like crazy and is just the joy of our lives.
• We finally got Breckston into his toddler bed and he does really well. It has been helpfull because he now doesn't have to sleep between us up camping. He gets his own bed!
• We Love this little guy and can't wait to see what he'll do and say next.
• School started again and hasn't been too bad so far. It's almost over at least until Grad school

We are getting ready for the hunting season to start. We are just enjoying our lives right now and especially Breckston. He is just a joy to be with even though he is a daddy's boy. We'll try and do better on posting.

The Draw

Well after waiting a whole 2 months after we applied for the draw; We found out what we will be hunting this fall. We once again drew out on the buck/bull tags. These have been a family favorite for the last few years and we have been lucky enough to have drawn it for three strait.

We are a little tired of culling the heard by shooting the little ones so here are the ones that we are after this year.

Here is my Projected '09 buck

Here is the bull that Tracy plans on shooting.

And here are some other possibilities

New Pictures of Breckston

Breckston was so cute when we went to get his pictures. He is so good at being a Ham.

He is starting to look like such a big boy.

Easter Fun!

This was our Easter weekend. Sorry for all the pictures but we had a lot of fun with family. It was also Jasons Birthday party. Happy Birthday to Jason last week. Sorry it took so long we are blog slackers.

Nap Time

It was so sweet yesterday. Breckston fell asleep sitting on the love sac with me. He never does that. Really, the only place he sleeps is his crib since he was really little. He must have been tuckered out. He slept for about an hour. Breckston twitched, snored and sucked his thumb while laying by me. I wonder if he'll ever give up that thumb.
