catching up...

happy mother's day!

late.

but not forgotten

(i don't know if either of our mothers read this anyway...)

to my own mom:

who is too far away but not for long.

..(like 4 years but i am patient)

to my mother in law:

who is incredibly talented and generous

 and i learn more from everyday

to my sister in law jaelyn:

who is going to be a mom so soon! and i am so excited for her! and i hope you name him grant! he is going to be amazing and smart and talented and funny...pretty much a champ!

to my friends:

you are such amazing moms! and i love you all! and am so excited to have gorgeous girls and hottt boys to date your cutie boys and girls! (pretty much i have to have girls because so far cooper and jaxon need me!!)

TURKEY HUNTING:

I had the day off on monday and so did ryan. so we went turkey hunting up in east canyon.

it was so beautiful and such a nice hike. its so fun to be up there with him...you guys would laugh he is just a little boy he is so excited! but he is so smart and good at it. that is one thing i really love about ryan. he is the best at the things he does. he ties amazing flies that he could sell for so much but he just does it because he loves it. he is an incredible fly fisherman. which, if you 

have ever tried you know takes extreme talent! he has little respect for bait junkies (except my dad:) since they don't have to work for it. he is just amazing and he doesn't give anything half hearted! 

i love him and i hope that i become like that!

back to the story...

we did not see any turkeys (sad) but we did see

6 live deer (mostly girls)

14 winter kill deer (sad...but fascinating)

lots of cow.

pairarie dogs (annoying...but neat)

and....

a porcupine

he was so scared of us. i felt bad, and i think that branch was going to break any minute.

we took lots of pictures of him. really it was so neat. 

and made the trip worthwhile since that was it!!

no turkeys....

until next week. (the hunt only goes til the end of may)
