Well, I've got a lot of catching up to do, here are the highlights from the last 3 months! Danny enjoyed his city rec gymnastics class.
Clay got to go with Dad and Uncle Greg to the Henry Mountains to scout for bison in preparation of the big hunt.
We had to say good bye to grandpa's horse Hawk. He's been a good horse and we'll miss him.
While Eric and Clay were bison scouting, the rest of us went to the Indian Cave, a favorite Wilson destination.
Family picture taken when we went to Vernal to cut our Christmas tree.
At last the much anticipated bison hunt! Eric had his once in a lifetime shot at a bison, but no luck. Never got a shot off. But Dave, who is really the most serious hunter in our family, had a great time with the men camping in below zero weather for 5 days. He really did think it was the best time ever.
Danny got this cowboy dress up set from Dave for Christmas, he loves it.
Dave, also the most serious trapper in the family, trapped his first muskrat, a momentous occasion in his young life. I believe the skin is somewhere in my basement, stretched out and drying.
We had an outing to what the Wilson's refer to as The Breaks, a long ways from nowhere, on the banks of the Seveir River. A good place to build a fire and cook some steaks.
We got to babysit this little girl, Brynne. We were all thrilled to have a little girl in the house to play with. The boys were very attentive and brought her whatever she might want.
They took turns feeding her a bottle. I can see the appeal of grandparents now, I liked borrowing a baby to play with for a few hours, then returning her and carrying on with my life!
We had a fun holiday at Uncle Dick's ranch, pulling sleds behind four wheelers around the frozen pond.
Grandma was game, even after getting dumped once!
This homemade train worked great too.
Clay and Dave felt very empowered taking turns driving as well.
Dave's 7th birthday. He only expected a cake for his friend party later in the week, so he was surprised when I walked out with this one. His happy surprise was my favorite part of the day.
For his party, he invited 5 boys to walk home from school with him on Friday. Did I say walk, they ran the whole way!
And here's the party cake.
