Hunting season has came and gone... and this was my first EVER trophey! It was so much fun and better yet... i shot it in my backyard :)... well i lured it in you could say from my backyard and became friends with it, then when it came time for us to part... i went under the dugway and... it was traggic for my buddy, but a good day for the almighty hunter :)
And thanks to my dad's BFF :) Stacey Maxfield, i owe this one to him!! I had a blast on this hunt and, it was by far the funnest adventure yet... (in the hunting category)! When my dad called me at 6:30 in the morning and told me Stacey had a track, the dogs were on the go and we better get our... Butts... up there! I was on the move! It took about an hour for the dogs to tree the cat, and we only walked half a mile to where they were, and let me tell you.. coming up on a GIANT (my adrenaline was pumpin)... might not as been as giant.... mountain lion sitting in a tree staring down at you, not knowing he is so much more powerful than you, waiting to be my next trophey :) and Better yet get this... as soon i shot him, he attacked the branch sitting in front of him and got stuck up in the dang tree!!! So Stacey climbed up the tree and down came the kitty! AwEsOmE hUnT!!!!!!....
Winter finally came around and me and Aaron had been dating about this time for 5 months, and a few days before Christmas he proposed!!! It was so exciting and we got married February 6th 2010!!!
We had a very casual wedding but so much fun! My boys wore what makes them feel comfortable... cowboy hats, wranglers and boots, so my little man had to fit the part :) I had a camo dress and instead of walking down the isle to a romantic song... we literally boogied down the isle to Even Cowboys Like Rock n' Roll!... Thank you Chris LeDoux :) it was so much fun!!!

Shortly after our wedding on February 17th, my little man turned 1!!!!! So crazy how time has flown and what has happened within a years time. He has truly been a blessing in my life and i wouldn't be where i'm at today with such a wonderful husband and amazing family, without having him! I'm so lucky to be his mother and i wouldn't trade anything in the world to have gone through what i did to have him in my life! ... and he cleary enjoyed his birthday :)
Summer is right around the corner... well i start to think that and then it snows... but we started out doing a lot of riding, so when summer actually comes we will continue to get out and enjoy the wonderful weather!!!... and as of last Tuesday we are the proud owners of our own 7 acres and can't wait to build our own home!! Its going to be so exciting when we get to that point! So now that i'm somewhat updated on what's been going on in our life... maybe when i get around to updating again.... it will be next year and i'll start all over :)
