Scott takes a fall.....

So anybody who knows my husband, knows he loves hunting. So yesterday he was deer hunting up above Fillmore. I got a call from him, he told me he had just fallen off a cliff. I was concerned but since he was calling I took that as a good sign. But he did sound pretty shaken up and he sounded like he had gotten the wind knock out of him pretty good. Apparently, his family rushed him to the Hospital in Fillmore. There they had to wander around to find someone, then once they found someone that person had to call the Dr. to get him over to the hospital. After approx. 50-100 stitches in his leg, he was release and with an ok to head back up hunting....Lucky for him he didn't need urgent care with an ER like that.

So anyways, not to be one to let anything get of his way of hunting, he is still hunting with just a few minor injures....

Thank goodness for small little miracles!

New Job

So I got a new job today. I am starting on Monday so I will probably not have as much time for Blogging. I will be working for Interwest Brokerage Company doing the same things I did at my last job.

Hunter's Birthday Party






Annie finally decided the right thing to do was share her photo's, not be stingy and not let her sister use her pictures without her permission or for a small fee. So here are the pictures she graciously sent me with her permission to post on my blog. Thanks Annie!

Lia's Easy Pumpkin Cookies Recipe

So every fall I crave pumpkin cookies! I love homemade but even store bought cookies will do. So I went to lunch with my friend Lia who is really into eating healthy. She gave me this recipe, her and her daughter Kowhai make them. I tried it out and they were really good and so easy, which I love.

Testers: Kelle, Aubrey and Ethan's Friend David all tried them and gave them a thumbs up.

1 spice cake mix
1 15 oz can of pumpkin
Mix until blended well then add:

1 bag milk choc. chips (if you want you can add half bag, the whole bag was very chocolatey but I liked it)

Cook at 350 for 12 minutes


Delicious...

PS Note to my mom if you are reading this. These were not quite as good or as healthy as your wonderful whole wheat pumpkin cookies but just easier!

Scott came home early.


Scott got a deer so he came home early, here is a picture of him and the deer. He is getting it mounted so he can put it in the basement I told him he can finish downstairs and hang as many animals as he wants. Don't be jealous girls.....

Easily Bored

Hello, I don't know if you noticed but I get easily bored with the background on my blog. I think I have changed it at least 15 times. Is anybody else like this? I am like this with my bedspread on my bed too, I have to change it quite often, it makes me happy, is that bad? What is wrong with me....


I wish I could change my furniture around in my house more often, but it just so happens that they way my house is set up, that is hard... So I will continue to change the background on my blog to mix thing up. :-)

In memory of Garret Phillips 9/4/08

I did want to mention that my sister's family in Las Vegas just lost a family friend his name is Garret Phillips and he was only 20 years old. He was one of my niece Chloe's best friend, I will be keeping his family and friends in my heart and prayers! Talking to my sister Diane made me realize how much I love my family and how short life really is. Make sure you let you family know how much you love them, you never know when it might be the last time you see them. Life is short and precious, live like there is no tomorrow.

I love you Chloe! I am thinking about you....

Update on my chin

I am sure nobody cares... but in case you were wondering my chin is not looking any better today! The large nodule has shrunk, however, in it's place are two large scabs that don't cover well with make up.

The upside, I got a root canal so my whole mouth is numb including the chin portion, so no pain!

From Lindsay's Blog

Excerpt from my friend Lindsay H. Blog

This was really funny, this was her way of making me feel better! I loved it, if you know this girl you would find this hard to believe because she truly is so graceful all the time!

"Grace

Mary had a bit of a run in with the side walk this past week and was looking for some consolation that there are other clutzes in the world. Myself being one of them. One of Clay's nicknames for me is "Grace." So here's my most recent "moment."

I fell down the stairs in my house last Sunday wearing heels. Apparently I need more practice. And it was the WORST fall ever! Seriously detrimental to my pride. My heel caught on the top stair in the carpet which flung me forward. So I throw my arm out for the railing smacking my hand hard and then tried to recover from that by swinging my other arm around to catch the railing, fell to my knees, and slid a bit down the stairs as my skirt flew up. All the while making some ridiculous noise, part scream/part moan/part crying out in pain/part laughing. UGLY! All in a dress in front of my husband who did an awesome job of not laughing and giving his dutiful, "Are you alright?" before totally busting up."
