Michaela's 1st Buck

At the beginning of January, Gary and Michaela went hunting at a friend's place. Michaela got a spike buck! She shot it and it ran a little and then fell down. We're so proud of her! Way to go, Michaela!!!! She was so excited!

Bryce Singing Karaoke

One night in December, the family and some friends gathered at Jimmy & Lisa's house for a get-together. Wendy brought her karaoke machine so we all could enjoy singing with it. Bryce LOVED it! He wouldn't let anyone else have the microphone...Wendy had to give him one of her extras so that way the rest of us could sing too! He's a natural singer! LOL!

Halloween 2008

Look at our Camo Boy, Rodeo Clown, and Cheerleader! This year for Halloween, the girls were at their mom's house. So Bryce went trick-or-treating with his cousins, Megan, Andrew, and James. We all had a great time and they received LOTS of candy!

These pictures are from the Boo Bash at M&M Mars...oh yeah! It's Mars Snackfood now...still M&M Mars to me! LOL! The girls were able to attend this event with us. Megan, Andrew, and James were also there.

Michaela's 10th Birthday Party

For Michaela's 10th birthday party, she had a slumber party with a few friends. Aunt Kerri made her a Tinker Bell cake. Great job, Aunt Kerri! It sure was good!
