Pheasant Hunting

My dad thru his work gets to go hunting every once in a while, and sometimes I get to tag along. Last weekend we went pheasant hunting in South Dakota. It was great!! The company that pays for the trip calls them "Business Trips". I am always more than happy to go on these "Business Trips" as we get pampered beyond belief. The whole weekend consists of hunting, eating, and football. I don't think life gets ANY better than that.As always it was another great hunt, as we got our limit both days. Thanks Pops.

Happy Belated Birthday!

The same weekend we went to the Strong Man Comp we celebrated Stasy's birthday! It was so fun to have Whitney in town too. We all meet at the Strong Man Comp and then went out to celebrate at BJ's and a roller rink. I have known Stasy for 7 years now and every year she always chooses to go roller skating on her birthday. This year really made me miss all the fun times I had in Provo with my girl friends. It also made me realize how old we are. Besides the parents that came along with their 8 year old children, we were the oldest crowd there. It was still a lot of fun. Then I went with Stasy and Whitney for a girls slumber party! I haven't done that in a while. Good times. Thanks Stasy for getting us out roller skating and thanks Whitney for having a sleep over! I feel like a freshman in college again! I wish I could have been with the girls the following weekend for Whitney's 26th B-day celebration, I heard it was a lot of fun too. So happy birthday again to Stasy and Whitney!

Pacific Crest Trail

A few weekends ago Jessica and I were able to escape city life and go camping for the weekend. It was fun to get away, and it was really the first chance we have had to see the California mountains. I think Jessica and I are still partial to what Utah and Colorado have to offer. We did car camping, because the 4runner makes an almost perfect bed. In the morning we got up early and did a short stretch of the pacific coast trail. In one of the pictures you will notice we just happened to pick a weekend when a HUGE fire was burning thousands of acres. We had a great time.
