What a Weekend!!


My dad called me the other morning and had told me he saw two baby antilope being born in his pasture, when we got there that weekend the mama had left one behind. we caught the one for a bit then decided to let it go just in case the mama came back for it. mom and dad have been watching for it closely and will be taking care of it if she dosnt come back. he was so cute! Boden loved it and was making the crying sounds it was making. what a life we live! I just want to thank mom and dad for giving us the oportunity to have moments like these. living down in the valley for a short time made me realize what a great childhood i had growing up in the mountains. this kind of life was the everyday for us when we were younger, the archery tournaments, fishing and camping trips, 4wheeler rides, riding our bikes to petes flume, and swimming in emels pond. every day was an adventure. so thanks mom and dad!!


we had a blast this weekend. we headed up to eagar to help my dad level out some land to put up a metal building. Boden stayed on that tractor with his dad almost the entire time! if he wasnt on the tractor he was on the 4wheeler. I got some time on the tractor as well and i have to say i had a blast. who knew working would be this much fun. how lucky we are to have a place to come home to that our kids had be exposed to this lifestyle. hopefully we will be able to do the same here in flagstaff for them.

Boden has to be doing everything we do. he was so happy to help his dad shave! he held so still as mike took the blade off and shaved bodens face too he had a grin from ear to ear the whole time.

Congradulations Alex!!
