Mother's Day Surprise!

this mother's day we had a little surprise for each of our mom's. We gave them the same present. It is a picture slide show. Take a look. Let us know what you think.

Fighter's Frozen Treats

It wasn't a particular hot day. But you got to start sometime. Opening day was April 25, 2009. We only went around for two hours to the development across the street and our own development. We sold about 70 pieces of ice cream. The most popular: Sponge Bob Square Pants. The kids were so excited, they were following me around with their bikes buying more. It was tons of fun and hopefully was just the begining of a great summer. We found out alot of things. The Freezer stayed cooled, the music lasted, and now we know what sells. Bring on the summer.

Hunter's Ed

Well, we finally figured out that we have double the chances of getting drawn a tag if we both put in for it. So for Brian's birthday present i took the hunter's safety course. Turns out i'm amazing. I got a 100% on the test and I was the best shooter in my field day lesson. It's not hard to beat a bunch of 12 year olds.

It was a good learning experience and now that we have a freezer chest there is nothing left to do but to shoot an animal. They make the lefty's go to the end of the shooting range. Check out those camo pants. I think that was the secret to my success.

Dunking

Cindy sent some of Ken's clothes. Brian liked them but he had to make sure that they worked good. So here is the test trial. I'll let you be the judge. What score will you give him? Here is me dunking it too. Who won the dunk contest?

The Return of The Escape

The City of Idaho Falls never looked so good as from behind Brian's favorite little white Escape with the stupid decal. Yes, it is the Return of the Escape. Two years ago we regrettably said goodbye to our 2001 white escape. We have been leasing a 2007 Red F-150. We handed the truck back in only to drive by another dealership that was "coincidentally" selling that same Escape that we traded in. It was a sign. It was a Birthday Miracle. The Escape is now safely in our garage as if it had never left. You don't get many do overs in life. We are greatful to be older and wiser, and this time we won't let it go. Brian was so excited, that after he got all the water out of his eyes, we took it for a spin up Bone Rd to see the city lights from the hill.

Ralphy got run over

Ralphy's recovery has been slow but steady. His pelvis is broken in two places. He spends lots of time laying down. We put a dog bed in every room so he can follow us around but lay down too. The pain medicine has been working great. He hops around with three legs. He is eating and drinking on his own now. But he doesn't clean him self as you can see by this video.

Ralph and the Cat, Perry like playing and snuggling together. Perry likes taking care of him. Raloh will be bake to normal in no time.

Wishful Hunting

So, we ran into Brian's cousin Becky at roudhouse and she told us that her brothers had just shot some elks and were cutting them up. So Brian and i raced over to see. Here is Brian posing with the elk, he's pretending that he got it in the picture. It was huge. Brian has been talking about hunting the rest of the week, now. He even threw a fit that he had not got the picture of him with the elk emailed to him fast enough. Now he's planning to go hunting for cow elks later this season.
