The New Winter Hobby

What do you do when the water is frozen and hunting season is over????

You get your friends together and dig in the ice to find the fish....

Then you go to Sportmans and buy everything they make for ice fishing....because

"That's how we roll!" so I am told!!!!!!!

 SOOO big!

Can you believe it, Christmas is coming!!!!

The cards have been sent, the tree and stockings are up and yesterday I finished my shopping!

Life ever changing

Well life has been crazy. Lots of changes and no time to blog. Where did November go?????

November Up-date: We moved! Todd and Jeff went on their father son trip to Montana and both got a buck. We visited my family for Thanksgiving and went to a good friends wedding at the coast and Todd got a new job! Life is always changing so fast,  but we can't complain because we are so blessed!

Bethany's Antelope Buck

Here is my second and biggest speed goat to date. We had a great weekend up in Wyoming.

This is the perfect hunting trip. Starts out with a hot breakfast and coffee at the hotel, then I got to kill an antelope and be back in time for my afternoon nap! The evening is wrapped up with the best steak dinner ever! I could really get in to this.

It was really good to share the experience with Jeff and Max too! Jeff got a doe earlier in the morning. Todd and I were fortunate enough to be right behind him and watch the shot. Yet another great adventure.

Todd, Jeff and the goats packed out camp and the elk.
A wonderful experience they could share together.

Labor Day in Steamboat Springs

Todd and I had a great weekend at Steamboat Springs. We relaxed, shopped, ate great food and hiked a waterfall. Here are a few pictures of Fish Creek Falls.
