CAMPING/ BOW HUNT

We had tons of fun going camping and on the bow hunt. We went up Fairview canyon and Jessica and her family came up and Francie( Josh's sisters). Josh had a deer and spike elk tag. We saw a 4 point and a 3 point but no bucks big enough to shoot, but we had fun going out and looking. Even though we had to get up at 5:30 in the morning. We rode our 4-wheeler and brought our trailer up. It was gorgeous up there. Josh wasn' too bummed to come home empty handed because he's got hunts until the end of November. So he will be very busy and Nicole will go out with him on a few of them. We had fun shooting our bows back at camp.

Josh cookin us some yummy breakfast on our new camp chef!

Josh just about burned his fingers on the fire. He wasn't being a very good example to his nephew, Cole.

Us girls stayed back at camp while the boys went out late one night fishing. We did glitter toes in the trailer and watched how to lose a guy in 10 days. We had fun and so did the boys!!!

We had a blast going to a sweet pond called potters pond. It was surrounded by pine trees. And the fishing was great. Justin brought up his canoe. That was fun to canoe around the pond.

Josh, Justin, and Cole going fishin in the canoe. They caught a few that day and a ton at night.

We were hiking right as the sun was going down. It was so pretty. We were about as high on top of the mountain as you could go. Nicole made it, but was pretty beat afterward. She definitely can't hike as good now that she's pregnant. There was no trail so we had to hike through the oak brush.

Our dog, Dixie found her some treats on the shore. She had a blast being in the water.

Nicole's Birthday/ Baby ultrasound

This was Nicole's 23rd birthday. It was such a fun day. They went to dinner with Nicole's family and had cake and presents afterwards. They also got to go to the mall and get an early ultrasound. Nicole's dad couldn't wait any longer. So he said that he'd pay if they would go early.

Nicole and her family in the room getting an ultrasound. The baby was moving all over. It wouldn't sit still for a second. For a while we couldn't find what the sex of the baby was. Stuff kept being in the way. But then finally we got two good pictures and.............
IT'S A GIRL!!!!!!!
The ultrasound pictures are kind of hard to tell, but it was pretty clear. The top picture it the full body and the bottom one is of the legs.
We were pretty shocked. We both totally thought it was going to be a boy, but we are very very excited! What a wonderful day it was.

We're Pregnant

We are so excited to be expecting our first child on January 17th. We couldn't believe the test was positive.

We will go to find out the sex of our baby on August 5th, my birthday. We can't wait to find out. Josh is really hoping for a boy. Nicole will be happy either way.

We made some cupcakes to tell our families that we were going to have a baby.

Two year Anniversary

For our 2 year Anniversary we went to Cedar City mountains for the turkey hunt... We spent a day in Bryce Canyon. Josh had never been!!

This is our trailer we recently purchased. Its so nice to go camping and have a bathroom and a place to put all our stuff. We love to go camping...

We went turkey hunting for our Anniversary. Josh was able to get this Tom and he was pretty excited about it. It's in our freezer now waiting to be stuffed which hopefully is soon so we can get it out of our freezer.
