Snow already...then gone

This last Sunday we got plastered with snow. Our power was out almost all night and then came on just enough to get ready for church and then was off till we got home from church. It was really COLD! It's already melted though. Crazy weather.

Hunting season

Josh has started hunting this season. He is really into hunting ducks and has been waiting for weeks to start. I think this is his first year....anyway, he went last Friday and got two ducks! His dad went with him and got one of his own.

Porter learned TOUCHDOWN

These are some cute videos of Porter. We taught him to make the sign for touchdown. SO cute!

The picture says it all

Josh and Porter decided to have a relaxing Sunday and watch football together after some vitamin church. This is what happened......

Porter insisted

I was feeding Porter baby food the other day. He was being such a ham. :) I wanted to try feeding him baby lasagna. He really liked it. Especially after I figured out that he wanted it warmed up a bit. Hey, I am a new mom..... Anyway, he just insisted on feeding himself. I couldn't do anything to get him to eat off the spoon if I were holding it. So, I let him at it. These are the cute pictures I got of him in between me laughing my head off at my little oompa loompa. Needless to say, he really needed a bath.

Camping

We got to camp with the Christensen side of the family this last weekend. It was really fun. I found a place on the Wyoming-Utah border called Bridger Lake. It was a beautiful lake. Lily pads covered most of the lake with tons of fish! It wasn't too long of a drive, about 2 1/2 hours, but turned cold really fast. The warmest I think it was the whole time had to be only 55 or 60 at most. It was super cold. I'm really glad we packed like we were paranoid. :) We got to use our little 4 man blow up boat. That thing is really great! We did some fishing, although it wasn't much because Porter hates fishing. It was like every time we went Porter started yelling something like "Hey fish! My dad is trying to catch and eat you. So run away!" Fishing was impossible with an 8 month old. :) Pat was the only one who caught a fish. He was pretty excited about that. We got to see Moose up close. Male and Female together. It was AWESOME. Slightly scary since they were only like 50 yards close. But really cool! Porter loved to eat dirt, every time I turned around I had to hurry to wipe dirt out of his mouth. We forgot our snuggle. It's like a little strap-on holder for the baby. Made for babies. So we had to make our own. We just put Porter in a backpack that luckily we brought. It was actually really funny. Allot of our time was spent visiting around the campfire because it was so cold. It was a fantastic trip.

We Moved!!

We finally moved into our own place last weekend. We found a little place in Bountiful. We sure love it! It's a duplex with two bedrooms and one bathroom. It's so cute! I love that it looks like my own little house. The other duplex is behind us, so it just looks like my house. We take care of the yard too. I can' t tell anyone how much it means to me to have our own place! I love it!!
