Archery Hunting!

                                 Dad and Ben have both enjoyed hunting with their crossbows this
                               year, and they each got a deer so far!
Ben and the doe he shot.



Dad shot a 6 point buck.


Hunting buddies : )

Picures of Anna

Anna has found her tongue!


I thought this picture was  cute!

Out in the woods to see Uncle Ben's deer.

Mom had made this camo outfit for Cory when he was little.


Isn't that a sweet picture?

Another gorgeous sunset.  There have been several beautiful ones this fall.

A Trip to Uncle Toby's

We all enjoyed our trip to Uncle Toby's (Lake Tobias) for the family reunion this year. Anna really enjoyed looking at all the animals.

 
The baby rhea birds are a favorite of mine to see when we go.



Aren't the babies cute?

Here is another cute baby on the safari ride : )

Little deer


See how much Anna was looking at the animals.





The prairie dogs at Uncle Toby's have their own special place to live, and people throw crackers to them. Wouldn't the prairie dogs in Montana like that!

Anna loved the petting zoo!

Across from the petting zoo was the kangaroo pen. If you look carefully, you can see a baby kangaroo in the middle of the picture. When we first saw him, he was riding around in his mother's pouch! It seemed like it would be a tight fit for him to get back in : )

Can you see the baby peccary?


Oh my! Look what Anna is petting!  A real, live snake!

Nature Pictures




This spider was in our garden. Mom and Ben got to see him 'wrap up' his supper : )




A wild 'morning glory'.





Can you spot the ladybug?





Wildflowers around the pond.


I think foxtails look so pretty when the sun is shining on them.

A Baby Kitty

This is a baby kitty that I got to take care of for a couple weeks. He drank out of a tiny bottle!


He stayed inside in a plastic tote. I though he might like a stuffed kitten for company.











A couple time he slept in my room, outside of his box.  Can you see him?


Look where he liked to sleep!
