girls will be boys. UPDATED

Ok, So I was thinking about funny things that we go through as a family-- This hunting story is one of them. It happened and I posted it about a couple years ago. But man this is a funny story and just shows how my dad survives with 3 girls and how we survived being his boys (pretend)

P.S. Its shark week I will be doing my review and posting my thoughts-- I love shark week- I should have been a Marine Biologist.

Oh P.P.S. I adding this video I made for my parents of my childhood growing up this was just a rough draft of what I made for them But I thought I would share with ya my little video!

-- This weekend could be described is how the stooges meet wilderness!! This past weekend my Dad took us up American Fork Canyon to the last place him and his dad went hunting together! Which was way neat; but for three girls... DIFFERENT STORY. to start off night before the hunt we were glassing and bobbie couldnt figure how to focus the binoculars soo.. she handed them to me I handed them back, she handed them to kenz and then my dad took charge and chucked them over the edge!!we are almost back to camp when my dad sees the water bottle that fell and says "get off and get that" so everyone looks at each other and so I get off and get the water bottle.. In that second my horse mutley starts walking off. My dad goes nuts and starts swearing at us; grabs a stick and starts whipping,kicking and yelling after mutley.. Mutley is a race horse so what does he do? yes he starts running instead of just walking. MY DAD SERIOUSLY LOOKED LIKE JOHN WAYNE IN A WESTERN. It was soo funny that me and bobbie cant do anything but laugh.. and laugh and giggle some more. My dad does get him and brings him back to us swearing up a storm and all the campers by us were just looking at us like this guy is a nutcase.. we smiled knowing they were right..

The morning of the hunt was sooo cold.. me and bobbie forgot

-warm socks

-warm shoes

-and thermals :D

Yes I was wearing ankle socks and Nike air Max- Dad was not pleased.

Meaning at 430 it was soo cold.. and we waited and waited and waited until 5:00 PM ( ok girls cannot A: sit on a mountain for 13 hours with B: nothing to do and C: NOT TALK..

well like 30 seconds before I took the gun to take my own life because I was miserable from sitting on a mountain listening to shhhhh and looking at dead trees and green trees my dad spotted one!! my first shot he didnt even look up,second nailed him right behind the shoulder. For those of you who know the accident story of a few years ago it was nice to get a high five and to hear good job instead of him throwing up and my dad saying the F word at me!!

not your family but ours

First of all our trip was amazing!- we really missed Bobbie and was sad that she did not come! Her leg was hurting so bad and so her & dad had special bonding! Needless to say we shopped, danced and ate until we dropped. We Absolutely love Scottsdale ( One of my favorite places to visit)-- 45 more years and I can be a snow bird! yippee

I flew out thursday and our great friends Autumn and Scott picked me up & we headed to Sprinkles cupcakes! They are to die for the second we turn onto scottsdale rd. my mouth starts watering for them- Ok thats a lie the second I stepped onto the plane I was drooling for some.

We went to our hotel and grabbed my mom and sister and headed to dinner- We went to saddle ranch where we got the funniest shirt! My mom got us all one- sorry it might be inappropriate for some of you! and we took pictures on the bull- We got my dad a shirt which I think he will enjoy it or at least get a good laugh. and dinner was Delicious!

Me and Mckenzie Abbigail did a short duet for clogging we ended up 1st in our division and 3rd overall! I was so proud of her we seriously learned the duet 1 hour before I flew out of utah and practiced 1 hour when we saw each other at the SSIR Rodeo in Winnemucca. This was her first big competition and she has been working so hard on her steps and stage presence. I have not been on stage in about 3 years so I was proud how we ended up! The teams when an Overall in every cateogry except one and won the showdown ( the whole comp.) GO TEAM!

We love shopping- and Scottsdale treats those habits well! its always Nordstrom's Anniversary sale when we are there so we often stop. The girls hit up H&M and many other stores of the 4 level mall. I came home with 16 Pairs of shoes in my carry on- seriously and still under budget (Lyle is sooo proud)

We had an early morning wake up call and left for the airport about 6:15 and we parted ways! I was really sad to leave my mom and kenz but am glad to be home I took a long nap and am ready to get ready to move- again!

Thank you scottsdale for a lovely stay and great time that we have been having for the last 12 years!

Here is our Short duet!! watch it- watch it - watch it!!

We are always down for a picture!

Learning

I am learning!

Well- Yesterday I learned to sew a skirt Mary did a great job at helping me she should become a

4-H leader! ok- so she really sewed the whole thing! But I diligently watched. I would love to learn more about sewing and really get into it! I think it would be a great Young Women's/RS activity don't ya think? I wish they would have done something like this when I was in YW. Seriously though mary is a saint and was the patience of paul and jobe combined.

Today- I have started my night stand redo ( [pictures to come)

ialsomayhaveranintoaditch. get that- Ok so I didnt back for enough because I was lazy and didnt turn sharp enough- nuff said.

I talked to my mom last night and she said hoova our corgi is riding on the dirt bike with my dad while he was irrigating. so cute!

are they not the cutest?

My heart is full

They have started haying- Lyle has been pushing up the pit so I often visit him upon request and sometimes get finagled into riding with him for a minute because he gets bored. I end up getting car sick and must leave. One thing is for sure I may never have red leather seats in my car but they will have them in tractor. LOL

Some times life it just too perfect because it is simple. We have fun and we always laughing and life is good.

I am getting into blogging Mary gave me the idea for the journal. She is way better writing than me I'll work on it! I have some pretty funny stories so i'll try to include them- you could classify me as a moderate to extremely funny person-- viewer digression advised.

Today I am taking a sewing lesson from mary- she is so great I'll update you soon on our experience.

Me and big red

Oh thats me flexing NBD (no bid deal)

me to lyle -" can you help me paint my right hand"

Lyle-" No"

Me- Placing the brush in his hand

--This is the outcome

ONLY in UTAH-- I actually stole this from a girl on FB

but seriously some people are desperate to make a $$

Apologies to anyone who knows this person and props for the entertaining idea!
