My Blog

Thanks for stopping by! I use to blog to "keep in touch," I use to blog to brag, I use to blog for an outlet. I have now realized I blog because these are the things I want my children to know/remember about our life together as a family. These days won't stop passing, but having a record of it when it is all a memory will be priceless to me.
I read your blog because I love you!

Happy Thought- Moose



This weekend we went camping up in the Unitas. It was so beautiful. On the way to our campsite Friday evening we saw a cow moose off to the side of the road. We watched her for a few minutes until she turned her back to us and started peeing. Turner thought that was the greatest thing ever! Then Sunday morning we watched a mother and her calf right across from our campsite! I have to admit that this picture isn't mine- my camera was in the van about 5 yards from her and I didn't want to risk making mamma mad. I have been obsessed with moose since my mission. In fact I use to want a big bull moose mounted above my fireplace. I am so glad that that phase passed because with 8 foot ceilings it would look a little awkward. It was so neat to see them so close.



Camping was so fun. We went with Josh's parents. Cathy is a super camper and sets up her own outdoor kitchen! Turner was having a blast with all the dirt and sticks! Max just loves to be held so he was in Heaven. I can't get Josh to go camping very often but usually he will do it for Labor day. It was great until about Sunday night when the rains started and didn't stop. By about 4am it was starting to leak through the tent. By 6:30 we were packing up and heading out. So now we have our tent set up under our carport in attempts to dry it out so we can pack it up. It was a great time and we have wonderful memories but I am excited to go sleep in my own bed! In fact that is where I am headed now. Good night!

Oh no sorry about the rain. At least you guys did it though right!
Plus you saw something AMAZING.
I think that'd be so funny if you had a GIANT moose head in your front room.
man that'd be cause for great laughter and maybe a few nightmares.
