Wellsvilles Hike

Brandon thought it was a good idea to go hike the Wellsville Mountains. So he conned his friends into going with him. Justin Ballard took his two kids, Taya and Jett. And his friend Chad Chambers took his son Cameron. And of course Brandon took Coop. They hiked up one day and down the next. Brandon said the kids did AWESOME. They said they had a good time. I was glad to stay home and hold the fort down with Hadlie!

She is telling me to get her unstuck!!

I just loved this picture!! Look close there is a puff
by her nose. She was feeding herself and missed!

9 Months Old!!

Hadlie is already 9 months old. She is definately a joy in our lives. Cooper is so cute with her. And she loves her big brother. I can clearly see that I haven't taken enough pictures. I need to do better.

Jeremy Evans....Baby!!!!

                                     We went to Grace and Coop got to meet Jeremy Evans from
                                     the Utah Jazz. I loved him! He was so cute with the kids.
                                     He is a humble great guy!! He gave the kids some good advice.
                                     Then he shook all their hands. Cooper thought it was awesome
                                     and couldn't believe how big his hand was. Grandpa Kevin was
                                     there and he introduced Jeremy to the kids. Grandpa hit him under
                                     the shoulder to give you an idea how tall he is. Before he left he
                                     did one dunk for the kids. They cheered and cheered. What a great
                                     experience for us all!

Rockchuck!!!!!

                                          Cooper was going up the rock pathway we have in our front yard
                                          when this rockchuck chirped at him. It gave Coop quite the scare
                                          at first. So of course Brandon had Bindi and Diesel barking at the
                                          poor thing. Dies and the rockchuck got in a little chase, both got bit.
                                          It hid in the shop til Dies chased him out and he hid in the woodpile.
                                          Needless to say it was a circus around here for awhile.

Bear Hunt May 2011

This year Grandpa Ted got to go with the boys on the bear hunt. Brandon and Coop go with an awesome bunch of friends every year. The go up in Northern Idaho up by the Canadian border. They had a lot of fun as you can see from some of the pictures. This year thank heavens they didn't bring home a bear!
