Halloween Carnival at the Dinosaur Park

Deer Hunt 2014

This was Carter's first year deer hunting with his own deer tag and his own rifle. We hunted our favorite deer hunting spots up in Randolph. We had warm weather, blue skies, and we saw a lot of deer, mostly does. Carter had an opportunity to shoot a pretty nice 4 point buck, but he hesitated and it ran off over the ridge before he could get a shot off. He was pretty bummed out, but we had a fun time. Carter worked really hard this year and got his hunters safety and his atv license so he could drive his own four wheeler. We went on a lot of technical trails and Carter did awesome! I was proud of him. I was really hoping Carter could shoot a deer his first year, but we still had a lot of fun. Maybe next year....

more love notes from school...

Calee and love notes from boys at school

Oh man, we are in trouble. She's only in 1st grade and Calee is already getting love notes from boys at school (he even put his phone number)

Calee and her Minnie Mouse bun hairdo

Look who got her ears pierced!

Calee has been begging us for a while now to have her ears pierced. Tonight we were at the Layton Hills mall and she decided tonight was the night. She was nervous, but she was super brave and didn't even cry. The girl at the Icing store that pierced her ears was so cute with Calee and made the whole experience a lot of fun. Calee looks so cute with her little ears pierced and she is so excited now to be able to wear earrings. It was fun night!

Utah Select Basketball tryouts

Tonight we were in Kaysville so Carter could try out for the Select Utah comp basketball program. We are sad to see the football season end, but excited for basketball season to start. Carter did really well tonight and we find out next week which team he made. We are so proud of him and the good little athlete he has always been.
