Halloween

Bentley loved getting all the gunk out of the pumpkin and she kept trying to eat it, such a funny girl!




Bentley and her cousins. We went and visited Josh's grandma on Halloween and went trick or treating to a few houses! Then we went and had homeade chilli at my sis in laws house, thanks for the yummy chilli Jess!



I talked Josh into dressing up this year! It was fun!


Grandma Ludwig and all the kids...


Our little bug! We didn't take her trick or treating since she's still too young, but I wanted to still dress her up. I borrowed this costume from my sister in law, so it worked out perfect!



Diggin into the treat bowl!



Bentley has to stand on everything now! It's cute and she thinks she's so big!

We had our friends over for dinner one night and she absolutely loves her friend, Peyton. She tries to kiss her and touch her eyes!


We had a pumpkin party and dinner with the Ludwigs the beginning of October!

Deer Hunt

I got to go on my first deer hunt this year. We drove the wheeler with the little trailer behind that had all our stuff in it.
This is what the road was like the whole time. You can't take trucks up this road, it was pretty bad on a wheeler too!


We camped at the top by this lake, it was so pretty!






We brought a little wood burning stove to keep us warm at night, it was so nice!




We hiked and hiked all day long, so we took a little nap up on the mountain!


This was the highest point, you couldn't go any higher. There was snow up there, but it was melting fast. I was pretty proud of myself for being able to hike so much! My legs felt like jello by the time we got back though!


Yay my first buck! We saw him on our way out, just before dark. I was so nervous to shoot him, but I hit him the first time in the right spot, so he went right down. I just didn't want to see him suffer, so I was glad he went down fast! Then the real work began... We didn't want to drag it out, since we were so far from camp and you couldn't get wheelers up there. Josh just cut all the meat off and put it in a bag in his pack. He had over a hundred pounds on his back the way out! It was dark and we had to go back to camp! I was nervous a cougar was going to come get us, since we'd been seeing tracks all day!



Josh was pretty proud of me and said this is a pretty nice deer, since he's so wide.

Elk hunt

It's that time again. It's tradition in my family that everyone goes on the elk hunt even if you don't have a tag. We took our trailer up and had a good time. It was pretty cold, but at least it didn't snow!

Me and Bentley enjoying the outdoors!


Me and Josh over looking at the orange salmon.



Bentley has learned how to stand up in her crib and on everything else. She's also crawling everywhere and keeps me so busy during the day, but I love it!




I got Bentley's pictures done recently. I love them and think they turned out so good! This was the only one I could get to work on here. There are so many more cute ones, so maybe if I figure out how to do it you can see more!!!!

I left the tulle out one day and this is what I found Bentley doing. She's a busy girl!

Bentley 7 months


My sisters decided to do a little photo shoot of Bentley one day while I was at work. I think they are really cute! Bentley's new thing is to wave and I swear it sounds like she says "hi." She loves when I read her books. She's such a happy girl and is so busy...

Me and a friend, Kiana took our babies swimming to enjoy the last few warm days. Bentley loves the water and had a blast.











Bentley and her cousins, Brooke and Cole. She loves them and all kids, she gets all excited whenever she sees kids or animals.






Bentley eating some corn on the cob. She loves to eat.

This past weekend me and Bentley and my sister, Cami went up to Bear Lake to visit Josh. He's been there for a couple weeks doing some houses there. It was a pretty cold weekend, so we didn't get in the water much, but it was good to see Josh and get away.









Bentley loved the sand and the water!





Here's a pic of Josh working at the one of the houses. He did all the finish trim and the wood floor, which looks so good.




Bentley was helping me open some presents on my birthday. Josh was out of town, so my mom made dinner and a cake for me, which was so nice of her. Thanks everyone for spoiling me on my birthday.



We went fishing at Salem ponds a couple weeks ago. We caught some fish and had a fish fry after with Melissa and Gabe.






Me, Melissa, and Bentley played in the water while the boys fished.







Bentley loved these ducks! She is so interested in all animals and loved to watch them and laugh.
