Elk Mount

Well a year or so ago, Russ shot a bull elk in the bookcliffs... it was a good hunt and we decided to mount his bull... Rusty Farnsworth, one of Russ' close friends is a taxidermist and so he did this mount for us! He did a great job and the mount looks really good!!!

When we brought it into the house tonight it really looked huge!!! especially in our tiny little house, but we like it!!1 And someday we will have the perfect space to put it!!!

Happy Valentines Day

I have the best husband!!! Even though he's not a huge fan of Valentines Day he is a good sport and brought me home some BEAUTIFUL flowers!!! And we went on a nice date... dinner at Canton City and a Movie - Country Strong - we had a good Valentines Day!!!

Playing with New Toys

So lately Russ and I have been having fun playing with our new toys! ... my 22 rifle and Russ' recurve bow (he got it for Christmas, and luckily really likes it even thought it's not what he asked Santa for :D ).
We messed around a bit on Saturday... I must say I thought I was doing really well shooting at some pop bottles and oil jugs... I knocked all 5 down at least once... It only took me 45 tries!!! Man I guess I need more practice... ?!?
Russell's brother Mitch came up too and they shot their traditional bows... I think they did pretty good except loosing one arrow in the hay stack!!

Full Draw :)

Russ had to go find an arrow that went into the hay stack... so funny!!!
